I'd also like to know under which country they're claiming infringement
under. In the UK, trademarks are registered on a "per sector" basis -
with sectors strictly defined by central government. So it is perfectly
possible (and legal) for two companies/groups to register the same
trademark as long as they are not in the same sector (ie directly
competing). Is it not the same in the US?
