<p><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Let's see if I follow you on this. The scammer went to the trouble of looking up the phone number of the client (how does one even look up phone numbers these days?) and used that phone number

related to your trademark application named “<b><span style="font-weight:bold">XXXXXX</span></b>”. Upon reviewing your application, it has come to our attention that while you initiated the trademark application process, you did not proceed with the government
classifications, resulting in an incomplete filing. Unfortunately, due to this incomplete filing, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has received another application for the same trademark and name.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

your confirmation within the next 24 hours. Failure to confirm your intention to register will result in the USPTO transferring the rights to the trademark name and mark to the new applicant. Please understand that time is of the essence, and we strongly recommend
that you respond promptly to this email. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us immediately at 442-305-4348.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
