The most recent order on this list (https://developer.uspto.gov/tm-decisions/search/administrative) is a show cause to a Chinese company threatening to invalidate some 50,000 trademark applications for various types of fraudulent activity, including having users in China submit the signatures of US-licensed attorneys, fake specimens, etc.  I think the first show cause for this entity went out over 2 years ago, so this is long overdue, but still.
