Apple Corporation has begun to seriously combat the illegal use of its trademarks in Russia. From an online store that has the words “apple”, “iPhone”, “iPad” in its name and on its website pages, the corporation is demanding 16,5 million rubles in court. According to expert estimates, there are more than 400 online stores operating in RuNet that use the word “apple” in their names. In 2015, their total turnover will be 15-20 billion rubles.

The claims of the corporation are caused by the online store apl-msk.ru, which is also redirected to the domains apples-msk.ru, apple-msk.ru, apple.msk.ru, applemsk.ru, apples.msk.ru, applesmsk.ru .

The word “apple” is used by about 400 Russian online stores in the domain zones .ru, .su, net, .bis, .org, .info and .com, said Mikhail Burmistrov, CEO of Infoline-Analytics. According to him, most of them trade in “gray” goods, that is, imported into the country without paying customs duties.

At Apple and the online store apl-msk.ru from any comment on the claim to the Arbitration Court so far abstained.
