In the case of cross-border trademark rights protection, well-known bands defend their rights one after another, which may be filed once a year. Therefore, cross-border sellers are not familiar with it, and they have infringed upon it without paying attention. It was not until they received the TRO frozen mail that they found that they inadvertently involved infringement, resulting in damage to their accounts. This is the case of Paul McCartney shared by Xiaobian today. There are three trademarks registered under his name, one is Paul McCartney word mark, which was registered in November 2000, more than 20 years ago. Cross-border sellers should be careful, and there will be infringement risks when used in listing. Subsequently, the musician registered a graphic trademark in 2006 and 2020 respectively, and cross-border sellers and friends quickly got lightning protection, thus staying away from infringement.
