How fake UL-certifications lead to Amazon’s major Chinese e-bike lawsuit

Amazon and UL have filed a lawsuit against several Chinese e-bike manufacturers for allegedly using counterfeit UL certifications on their products. The lawsuit, filed in the US District Court for the Western District of Washington, accuses the defendants of falsely labeling e-bikes and e-scooters with UL trademarks without authorization. The complaint highlights violations of UL’s trademarks and Amazon’s seller agreements, misleading consumers about safety standards. The companies involved include Jiangmen Meijiasheng Bicycle Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Aibosi Sport Technology Co., Ltd., among others. Amazon and UL are seeking damages and the destruction of counterfeit products.
