Fraud Letters Aim At Patent Holders To Defraud "Labor Cost".

Half a year, 300 cheaters, aiming at inventor, "your patent has won the" so and so awards "," we are compiling "World Directory of persons", you are our most suitable person.

In recent years, with the sharp increase in the number of patent applications, patent fraud such as this is aimed at patent owners and inventors.

Yesterday, reporters learned from the law enforcement office of the city intellectual property office, from last October to March this year, the Bureau received a total of 316 reports, "only one of the inventors named Zhang Wei received more than 50 such fraudulent letters."

In order to solve the problem, Mr. Zhang received a "Notice of awarding", which read "approved by the State Council," the fifth "national patent technology excellence Invention Award" 1000 times, "National Science and technology best achievement progress award" 1000.

The patent technology you invented was awarded the first prize of "national patent technology excellence Invention Award".

The inscription is "People's Republic of China honorary Review Committee" and "People's Republic of China science and Technology Achievement Award Committee" and the official seal with the national emblem.

The letter also stated in detail that the sum of the fee of the expert assessment and the cost of the work should be remitted to the co organizer of the activity, "Beijing Jinqiao patent information service center". In addition, a special "letter of receipt of this notification for more than 30 days has not been processed, and it will be regarded as an automatic disposal of the award". 600

The survey shows that the awards and prizes are all fake. The reporter saw a copy of the letter, leaving the bank account and post office account. The account name was "Luo Ligang", but the reporter couldn't get through the phone when he left the phone.

114 the directory also indicated that "Beijing Jinqiao patent information service center has not been registered".

As a government department responsible for the national science and technology award evaluation organization, the Ministry of science and technology awards office told reporters that the State Council has never established the so-called "national patent technology excellence Invention Award" and "the national best achievement award for science and technology", nor does it exist the so-called "national honorary review committee" and "National Science and Technology Award Committee".

They have never commissioned any organization to award and publicize National Science and technology awards, and the State Science and Technology Award activities shall not charge any fees according to law.

Receiving letters from "patentee mutual help activities", it is claimed that the activity is a voluntary organization of patent inventors. The purpose is to help everyone. The letters he received contained 5 patents, numbered 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Each person who received the letter sent a 20 yuan to the patent number 1, a 15 yuan to 2, a 3 yuan to the 3, and a yuan to the victim number. Then, the number was removed. He will be bailed out with entrepreneurial gold. Mr. Zhang Wei will report to the Beijing Intellectual Property Office.

Using this "five fold diffusion" method, we can generate at least 200 thousand yuan of start-up subsidy.

The letter also said, "the address of the patent inventor can be found in newspapers and periodicals such as" patent gazette "and" inventor of contemporary China ".

The director of law enforcement office of Beijing Intellectual Property Office told reporters, "this activity is very similar to the organizational structure of the rat. In the letter, some of the patentee took part in this activity and made millions of money like snowballs. Later, they invested their own patent projects with this money, looking at something like this, but they were all planning people to make money and follow suit."

Reporters found in many of the letters they collected, many remittances were in the same group of people, that is to say, there were not many "outsiders" or "newcomers" to participate.

The main way to cheat in cheating is to rely on "six charges". The law enforcement office of the Beijing Intellectual Property Office summarizes the tricks of these deceptions according to the reporting situation.

The first is to collect "labor costs" in the name of international organizations such as state departments, national organizations or British and American international organizations, and the two is to falsely claim that a company wants to buy patent technology at a high price, but another company that requires the patenor to entrust it to make a feasibility report to defraud the "assessment fee"; three, it claims to hold an Expo to defraud "exhibition fees" and "certificate fees"; four, it is a false claim that the patent items are included in the compilation of excellent projects, or the publication of "the patent owner's directory", so as to defraud "famous fees"; and another is "mutual aid and friendship" activities, which defraud "mutual aid fees".

The victim analyzed the patrime's impetuosity, and he was "eager to get enough money."

Fraud often occurs at the beginning of a patent being published or authorized, when a good patent will be pferred quickly to get economic benefits, and most of them will be sold at the price.

In addition, most patentee have confidence in their patent invention, "blindly optimistic about patent prospects, and receive no notice when awarding the award."

"Impatience" has become their common weakness.

Wu Mingan, an associate professor at China University of Political Science and Law, points out that the amount of fraud is more than 2000 yuan, which constitutes a crime of fraud in the criminal law. As these institutions usually "cheat a lot of people", the amount is usually far more than 2000 yuan, which constitutes a crime.

Such acts have gone beyond the enforcement authority of the Intellectual Property Office, and should be filed by public security organs for investigation.
