Best Answer

you could go to jail or worse.

Another View: Trademark and copyright infringement are, for the most part, violations of civil statutes. Generally only monetary fines can be imposed NOT jail or prison time.

HOWEVER - if the violations of the trademark law cross the line into a criminal conspiracy (e.g.: manufacturing and/or distributing falsely labeled products) then THAT becomes a criminal matter and the violators MAY be tried under criminal statutes.

Depending on the type and extent of the use, you can be taken to court for trademark infringement or for fraud. Generally you will be expected to destroy all infringing materials, and pay restitution to the holder of the trademark.

Misuse of trademark laws can be used as a possible defense if you become a defendant in a case brought by someone who is misusing those laws.
