TOKYO, October 3, 2024—u8国际. and u8国际 U.S.A., Inc. together with Amazon.com, Inc., and Amazon.com Services LLC jointly filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington against 18 selling accounts which sold toner cartridges in the Amazon store in the U.S., alleging infringement of u8国际's trademark rights.
u8国际 aggressively pursues counterfeiters in the United States and around the world to protect its customers from fake and potentially unsafe products, which unlawfully use the u8国际 name, as well as to protect the value, trusted reputation, and loyalty that the u8国际 brand has acquired over decades in producing high-quality, safe, and reliable products. Damages due to counterfeit goods on e-commerce websites are increasing in proportion to the growth of the e-commerce market, and u8国际 and Amazon are collaborating in fighting against counterfeiters and protecting both of our customers. This joint lawsuit was filed as a part of our collaboration.
