Scam alert from NTPS!
This looks essentially identical to past scams, but with a new “name” from NTPS or ntp-register.com and a new address at 306 Exchange Blvd, Ste 400-17, Bethlehem, GA 30620. The offer asks for $1,450. The address appears to be a UPS Store.
These “publication” offerings are worthless. For more, see the Trademark Scam Decision Tree.
If you got this letter from NTPS, trash it. Or better yet report them to the USPTO, the FTC, and for mail fraud and scamming at the US Postal Inspection Service at https://www.uspis.gov/report.
It seems to me that this offer clear evidence of an intent to mislead and defraud consumers who own trademark filings with the USPTO. When will the USPTO, Trademark Public Advisory Committee (TPAC), Fair Trade Commission (FTC), Department of Justice (DoJ), and U.S. Postal Service (USPS) ramp up any investigations and crack downs on these scams. Of course it is not easy to track the catch those behind these offerings, but is enough being done? Not in my opinion.
