Flava Works sues adam4adam.com for trademark, copyright infringement

FLAVA WORKS SUES ADAM4ADAM.COM FOR TRADEMARK, COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

CHICAGO, IL (NOVEMBER 11, 2014) ? Flava Works has announced that it has continued its tough stance on Internet porn piracy by filing a federal lawsuit in the Southern District of Florida against the gay hookup website Adam4Adam.com and its? owner and operator Marc Parent.

Marc Parent has created a gay social dating website that uses copyrighted images to promote and sell third party products, misleading customers into purchasing these products and services.

Phillip Bleicher, CEO of Flava Works says: ?Flava Works did not license Adam4Adam to use its copyrighted works to promote these products and services that have no affiliation with our company. Despite repeated attempts to have them cease this copyright and trademark infringement, they continued to infringe on our works.?

The complaint (case # 1:14-CV-23208-JAL) can be found online at: http://www.scribd.com/doc/241020473/...s-vs-Adam4Adam

Go get him. For some reason gay site owners are most active in this. Way to go!

Thanks

But to also clarify our lawsuit:

Customers thought when they were clicking and joining these sites based on Flava Works images located on the ads on Adam4Adam.com. Some of these sites (a complete list will come out in discovery and in future lawsuits) were operated by Boyfriend Bucks among others sites (some are listed here: http://www.signbucks.com/news/blacklist). In addition, customers complained that when they joined these sites (thinking they were Flava Works sites - with the click through via Adam4Adam.com) these third party websites would slam their credit cards for additional charges for items like Viagra and other websites. Although this complaint only addresses the Adam4Adam.com infringements, a complaint against these other websites is forthcoming.
