Cyber Monday Counterfeiting
|
Federal authorities have seized 150 Web domain names which were allegedly used to traffic counterfeit brand-name merchandise.
Illegal sales of a host of counterfeit products, including professional sports jerseys, golf equipment, DVDs, shoes, handbags and sunglasses were allegedly involved.
An ongoing investigation which began in 2010 called "Operation in Our Sites" targeted online counterfeiting and led to the current 150 seized domain names in addition to the 350 that had been seized since 2010.
Federal law enforcements made undercover purchases and if and when the trademark holders confirmed that the products were counterfeit, seizure orders for the domain names for the websites were obtained from federal judges.
Since 2010 a total of 350 domain names have been seized for selling counterfeit products.
