Defendant Denies Allegations It Ran Amazon ‘Impersonation’ Scam
Code Connect Solutions “never authorized or condoned” anyone using or infringing Amazon’s trademarks, misleading consumers or “engaging in fraudulent or illegal conduct in any manner,” said Code Connect’s answer Friday (docket 5:23-cv-00650) in U.S. District Court for Eastern North Carolina in New Bern. Code Connect is the lead defendant in one of three Amazon lawsuits filed on a single day in November to halt separate sets of alleged fraudsters from running the “impersonation” scams that dupe consumers into buying fake Amazon support services for activating Prime Video on their devices (see 2311120001).
