There is another person using my company name.

We have a very distinct and unique name yet there is another person using that esact comapny name as a personal contact. How do I get this person to stop using my company name? Isnt this a form of identity theft? How do I proceed to take legal action in this case?

Hi, PhoenixSymphony, and welcome to the Community,
In the USA, if your company name is trademarked or copyrighted, there are legal remedies which you should discuss with an attorney.  As far as identity theft is concerned, seek counsel with your local law enforcement agency.  Hopefully you reside in a jurisdiction where cybercrime is taken seriously.
If you wish to contact Skype Customer Service as well, please be neither alarmed nor surprised if you are asked to verify the company name is indeed "yours."  You may be requested to provide documentation, the process of which is explained in this FAQ article:

  • Is there a way to use my company's fonts when designing using the cloud applications?

    I recently subscribed to the cloud and quickly learned that my company's fonts are not available.  Is there a way to use my company's fonts when designing in the cloud applications rather than using their fonts?

    Which Adobe application(s) are you talking about?
    As an example, if you're downloaded Adobe InDesign from the Creative Cloud, there is absolutely no difference in the way it uses fonts from a copy of Adobe InDesign that you installed from a DVD. Both applications are run from your computer's hard drive.
    Your company's fonts would need to be installed on your computer to use them in any computer application.

  • HT2486 When you want to add another person from same company, how can you duplicate and then modify the card already entered?

    When usinf Mac Address Book and you have entered the information for one contact from a company, how can you duplicate the card so you can add another person from same company?

    I'm afraid the LU suffix is a new one on me.
    As long as you have all of the content in your library then that remove and sync warning shouldn't cause any loss of data, but it shouldn't be happening every time. It may pay to take the following steps to reset the connection between the two,
    Backup device.
    Restore as a new device.
    Restore the backup made earlier.
    Again, this assumes all content on the device is in your library. If that isn't the case see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device first.

  • Why can't I use the "Company Name" of the lead entity for System Views?

    I just wanted to add a new colum for the system view "All Leads". As i scrolled through i missed the field "company name". So i checked the systemname of the field and it was the same. I got back to the Views and tried to change another
    existing view and the same there: the field company name was not accessible. 
    So to proof that there is something wrong I created a new view for leads. In the new view i can choose the field company name and use it as expected. 
    So whats the reason i cant use it for existing views? It makes no sense at all!

  • Another person used my email to create a account.

    I haven't used my Skype account for a while, then, today when i try to use it, my email, that i use for years, is being used by another person.
    I retrieved the password, but i can't change the username.
    How can i retrieve my username and associate it with my email again?

    just like the title you entered say, somebody created an account using your email address, which means that the account you requested a password reset for is not your account.  when there is more than one account associated with a certain email address, there will be a dropdown menu in the reset password page where you can select the account you want to request a password reset token for.  So you may need to request for a new password token, and be sure to select your account's username.
    on the other hand, you can report that unrecognized account to [email protected]

  • Is there a way to use different NIC names in 10g RAC?

    For example node 1 has ipge0 for private, ipge1 for private and node 2 has Solaris default e1000g0 and e1000g1? Or do interface names have to match on all nodes? I am not referring to IPs or subnets - just NIC names.
    Here is some background.
    This was a 2 node 10g RAC on Solaris that has been in operation for years. Node 2 experienced a corrupt root partition (OS, nothing to do with Oracle), so OS was reinstalled. After OS reinstall I copied /var/opt/oracle/*.* from node 1, changed them to reflect node 2 info, plus CRS related files from /etc/init.d, such as init.crsd, etc. This is shared Oracle home, so Oracle continued to run on node 1 just fine.
    However, after crs startup nodeapps tells me "atlts04ra.atlts04.vip:ifconfig: status: SIOCGLIFFLAGS: ipge0: no such interface". Indeed, this interface does not exist on node 2.
    So, is there a way to instruct oracle to use different interface names for nodes? Or will vipca ask for matching NIC names just like disk mount names have to match?
    I want to avoid reinstallation of RAC because that will disrupt oracle database that has been running on shared oracle home all along.
    Thanks.

    Fzheng, I am very interested in your statement "however you can change the e1000g0 to ipge0".
    You mean to say there is an OS script that will downgrade ipge0 interfaces to e1000g0?
    I got some more information from SysAdmins yesterday. Apparently, when OS was reinstalled on node 2 after root partition corruption, they also patched it up to Solaris 10u9 (which by default created e1000g0-type interfaces). The first node still had 10u7 with ipge0 interfaces. We, the DBAs, were not aware of the upgrade. So, nodeapps cant start saying "no such interface"on node 2.
    You are probably referring to script /usr/sbin/e1000g_transition.
    Here is the description:
    "DESCRIPTION
    This script allows you to perform an optional driver upgrade
    for the Intel PRO/1000 device present on this system from the \"ipge\"
    network driver to the Sun standard \"e1000g\" network driver. The
    e1000g driver include features such as link aggregation as well as
    superior performance in most environments. Moving forward, e1000g
    will benefit from new features as they become available, bug fixes,
    and performance enhancements. The disadvantage is that some
    applications configuration files may require modification to use
    e1000g if they reference the ipge network interface.
    This script must be run in single user mode.
    This script will alter network interfaces and related system
    configuration files. Configuration files for 3rd party applications
    will NOT be changed. After running this script, applications present
    on the system may require maintenance. The system may be in an
    unsecured state. The effects of this script may be reversed using
    the backout (-b) option."
    So, if I understand you correctly, you are proposing to run this this script with the backout (-b) option on node 2, so interface names will match.
    Is this correct?
    Thanks.

  • Another site using Apple s name,

    i was on my i pad when I received an e-mail telling me that I had won a new Galaxy tablet as I used an Apple product to sign into Facebook frequentl,it told me to pay £1 towards the postage and that would be sent out to mew,,so I never done anything else, I had thought that because I totally trust Apple that I would have nothing to worry about,,so I thought I was getting a rather nice gift from Apple. Then I got a e-mail from a company called FUNCKYCLOCK please everyone remember this name,,they said thank you for joining their site and because I hadn't been in touch with them they had upgraded me and then they took £74 OUT of my bank account I'm in so much shock of this now I have found out it has nothing to do with Apple or Facebook they used their names at the beginning of the con so people like me trust everything and pay the £1 cost with my bank details,,I have to get this out so no-one else falls for this,,,I am trying right now to get my money back but e-mails I'm sending they are sending yet another excuse back to me telling me to sign into their site and I will get a welcome pack,,,well I'm not doing that and I am just trying to get my money back,,I wanted Apple to know and other people don't look at this page it is nothing but a con.
    APple I think you should look into it further and tell them to stop using your name,,,,Remember the site is called FUNKYCLOCK

    Thanks for letting us know but some of us already know that the internet is full of con artists. Apple can't and won't police the internet. Gullible users like you are the reason why scam like this still exists today. Sorry to say that you have to kiss your money good bye. I hope they only took out £74. Contact your bank and ask them to change your account number. If you don't take actions, they will take out more money out of your account. That's a guarantee.
    edit
    They're not even using Apple name. They said you won a Galaxy tablet (not Apple). You're the one using Apple product.

  • There is another divice using this IP address (prompt on the screen)

    I get this message every now and then in my scream what dose it mean and how do I fix it

    I get this message every now and then in my scream
    There's no need to scream.
    Sometimes this message means that you have two simultaneous connections to the same local network: probably Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Disconnect the Ethernet cable or turn off Wi-Fi.
    Sometimes it happens because a device that gets its network address from the router wakes from sleep, and the address it was using before has been assigned to another device.

  • How do I stop another person using their own Apple ID accessing my Itunes library on a shared computer?

    My daughter and I have our own Itunes libraries on a shared computer.  However we can access each others libraries by using our own Apple ID.  This causes a problem because she was able to access my account and delete some music by mistake.  Is their a way that I can ensure no one can access my music?
    Thanks

    Emma,
    If two people have separate libraries on the same computer, it is best to put them into two separate Windows User accounts.
    Go to Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Add User Accounts, and get her set up in a separate user account.  Then move all her stuff there and from then on the two of you can operate independently on the same computer.

  • I cannnot eject my iPod classic in Windows 7 because it says there is another program using it

    I am unable to eject my iPod classic unless I go to the My Computer in Windows Explorer and hitting eject. I cannot eject it through iTunes. Is there a way to find what program is using it and stop it so that I can eject it through iTunes again?

    Also I'd suggest checking to see "Enable disk use" or "Manually manage music and videos" options enabled on the device's summary screen under options because you have to manually eject the ipod before disconnecting the interface cable if either option is enabled. If so, try turning off whichever one is enabled and click apply in the lower right corner. The ipod will re-sync on its own and if that's what the issue was, should auto-disconnect when the sync completes.

  • Another person using my email

    I have an ongoing issue with someone using my email address for their verizon account, and I would really appreciate some help in solving it. I get multiple emails from their account per day (because they also signed up for "Family Base," despite apparently being allergic to getting their own emails) and the occasional times I get a message that has an unsubscribe link, when I click on it it tells me that my email is not found. This is incredibly frustrating and I want it to stop.

        Let's get this email issue resolved pronto khuang1! Please follow me (I am now following you) and send me a direct message and I will make sure to have this issue corrected so that you no longer get emails intented for one our customers.
