In a previous life I published a sales-related article entitled 'Never Cold Call Again'. Within 24 hours I received a 'cease and desist' notice from an American lawyer because his client had trademarked the phrase!!! I tell you not one word of a lie ... The boy was not very happy when I pointed out that as I am in the UK only European trademarks applied, and the Europeans would never allow such silliness. Lots of name-calling and exaggerated threats!
