`Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application. Private companies not associated with the USPTO often use
`public information provided in USPTO trademark applications to mail and email trademark?related offers and notices?most of which require
`fees. These companies often have names similar to the USPTO. All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the domain
`"@uspto.gov." For a current list of companies the USPTO has received complaints about, information on how to identify these offers and
`notices, and what to do if you receive one, see the misleading notices webpage.
