Suspicious Filing Patterns

Owners with high-volume, scattered filings across many NICE classes paired with very low registration rates — a pattern often associated with trademark squatting or speculative filing.

Heuristic: ≥15 filings · <15% registration rate · ≥6 distinct NICE classes · class-scatter ≥0.30 (classes/filing). False positives possible — investigate manually before action.
