If you have received a Cease and Desist letter, or a threat of lawsuit: I have handled this issue for many clients recently. My technique makes it so that you pay them nothing. To date, I have not had a SINGLE CLIENT who ended up having to pay a dime, or with any liability. I have a method that makes them give up on you whether they have you located and identified or not. My techniques make them lie down and stop bothering you legally - without the need to hide or worrying about whether they will try to trace you.
General thoughts that might be going through your head:
KEEP IN MIND THAT SIMPLY IGNORING THE DEMANDS YOU HAVE RECEIVED COULD BE THE WORST THING YOU COULD DO. My techniques are the best way to deal with Johnson and Pham, Gibney, Anthony & Flaherty, Phillips, Ryther and Winchester, Clement & Ho, or any other attorney firm that has contacted you demanding payment for alleged trademark, copyright or other violations.
In SOME cases - You are somewhat right about not having to worry about being sued - I mean they need a real person and a real address to file the lawsuit and serve you. But if they really wanted to get at you, they could file the lawsuit against a John Doe, and then demand that EBAY or Craig's List cough up your ISP and go from there with more subpoenas to unearth you. This sort of thing is done all the time to track down software and music piraters who use Limewire, etc.
They can also track you through the people you sold to, if you gave them a real return address and so on - and the payments methods (follow the money). Another common way they track you is because, unwittingly, YOU HAVE ALREADY SOLD TO THEM! and they have documented proof of your transgression.
As well, U.S. Customs often works with these firms, to document your importation of VERO goods.
And big companies will sometimes sue anyone who does not "cease and desist" no matter how small time you are. If its just some competitor, then he would have no standing to ask you to cease and desist unless he has been assigned the trademark rights, which is unlikely. If you follow what I am saying, it is that only the trademark holder or someone with similar rights, such as a wholesaler with exclusive rights to sell or some other right in that area that you are violating, that can demand that you cease and desist in the first place. They must have standing - some legal right that you are violating.
