Seeking help taking legal action regarding an Amazon matter . My account is currently active but I have suffered from false IP complaints based on weak and invalid Design Rights and also IP complaints that were not even backed by design rights.
The products I sell on amazon are very generic, common products - which are very plain in design and have been sold online through numerous high street brands for years before the Design Right's used against me were made.( I have proof of this).
My product listing on Amazon itself was even created before some of the Design Rights' registration dates therefore it's impossible that I've copied them .
There have been multiple reports made in bad faith, the first time it happened I was coerced into making a payment to have the complaint retracted .
After researching I feel It's highly likely I could get these Design Rights which have been used in bad faith invalidated by submitting a DF19A form with the IP Office, as they've been used to harm other seller's like myself and boost their own sales, as well as being an exact copy of a product that has existed long before.
The most recent complaint was pretty much anonymous , a gmail email address was left and a link to a similar amazon product , however the case for this is very weak as it isn't supported with a Design Right - which Amazon usually requires, however Amazon often takes the side of complainants without conducting proper checks, I'm not sure if this complaint was by a new seller or the old seller who made the previous complaints. I contacted them and the only response I got was that I'm apparently 'taking their sales' Due to my listings being deactivated multiple times I've lost the organic search ranks I invested a lot in to achieve , I also paid for PPC advertising on Amazon, at large amount of stock, I've had to pay freelancers to help to fix issues in my listings as a result of the complaints. My sales have dropped by over 70%, The loss in sales has meant I have struggled to pay my outgoings such as tax, stock and other business costs , this has caused severe financial problems within the business.
If you are able to help in any way please let me know
