ShoeMoney Sues Google Employee

I was reading yesterday that Jeremy Schoemaker, AKA ShoeMoney, is suing a Google employee for adword and trademark violations.

As a known moneymaker, Schoemaker trademarked ShoeMoney to stop people using his name for profit. With regards to Adwords, this meant that no one could target the word ShoeMoney except for Jeremy Schoemaker himself. However, ShoeMoney noticed one person who was getting through the adwords system and was making money through his trademarked name.

To cut a long story short, he tried contacting the owner of the site (myincentivewebsite.com) but was not replied to. His ‘Cease and Desist’ was not answered either. After going through the courts and forcing the host to replace the website owners information it turns out that the guy worked at Google as an AdWords Account Strategist. The guy had been using his position to bypass the adword controls and view all the keywords and phrases that ShoeMoney had been targeting.

It looks like ShoeMoney has a very good chance of winning this case (as well he should). Here’s hoping it works out well for him :)

    lolz..This looks very interesting thing. I have never seen such type of thing.

    I think this needs to be brought out in more detail, but I think part of the agreement was to keep it private.

    Bad news all the way around with a Google employee.
