Manufacturer 3M has filed a lawsuit against a Florida company claiming trademark infringement and fraud for allegedly selling fake N95 masks to a Massachusetts hospital. The company claimed in the lawsuit filed in federal court late last month that MM Medical Supply illegally sold thousands of counterfeit N95 masks to South Shore Health System that were made to look like the ones produced by 3M, according to The Associated Press. Representatives of 3M said in the legal filing that the Florida company improperly led the Massachusetts hospital to believe that it was an authorized 3M distributor and that it sold masks at “exorbitantly inflated” prices. |
