안녕하세요
본문에 주어진 내용만으로는 정확한 조언이 어려울듯 사료됩니다. 다만 2014년 7울 25일까지 회사에서 본인에게 요구한 합의가 유효하며, 삼성측에서 모든 권한을 가지고 있다는 내용이므로, 본인이 수입하신 가짜 물건에 대한 배상을 삼성측에서 하지 않았나 추측됩니다. 좀 더 자세한 내용은 전체 내용을 보아야 할듯 사료됩니다.
To Whom It May Concem: We represent Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC, and Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (collectively, “Samsung”). We have been 3 informed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“Customs”) that on or about June 12, 2014, in Los Angeles, Califomia, it seized approximately 300 counterfeit “Samsung” chargers (the 1 “Infringing Products”).

말은 바로 해야지/ 물건을 수입했는 데 가짜라서 압수된 것이 아니고 가짜물건을 수입해서 압수당한 것이지요?
내가 영어를 잘은 모르나 대충읽어보니 심각합니다. 귀하는 삼성짝퉁제품 300여개를 중국(홍콩)의 전자회사로 부터 수입을 했고, 이 사기행동에 대해 삼성에서 귀하에게 자료제출을 요구하는 것입니다. 짝퉁제품을 수입판매하는 행위는 연방법/ 주법에 의해 공정거래법위반, 상표의 가치훼손에 의한 배상으로 건당 200만불이상의 배상+변호사비를 배상해야 할 수 있습니다. 그러니 요구되는 모든 서류를 제한된 기간내에 제출하는 것이 좋을 것입니다. 요구되는 서류는, 이 짝퉁제품을 수입하려고 주고 받은 서류, 편지, 전자메일등 일제의 다큐멘터리. 최근 2년치. 이 벤더 또는 다른 곳에서의 수입. 이 제품 또는 다른 삼성제품의 시리얼 넘버등.. 그리고 이 제품의 판매방법, 예를 들면 이베이, 아마존등..
그냥 무데뽀로 버티기에는 심각한 문제이므로 상법전문 변호사와 상담후 대처하시길 권합니다.

Cease and Desist order 인네요.
읽어보니까 삼성쪽에서는 님이 구입한곳을 잡을려고하는것 같은데 나중에 잡으면 님이 가지고 있는 모든자료 (수입품목, 인보이스 등등) 를 넘겨달라는 조항도 있고, 또 님이 만약에 또 가짜를 파시거나 수입을 하시면 그땐 님에게도 크게 문제가 된다는 레터네요. 소송에 시달리고 엄청 큰일 나지 않으실려면 삼성이 원하는 자료나 아니면 원하는 답들이 담긴 모든것을 넘기시고 변호사와 상의하셔서 어떻게 대처할실건지 준비하세요.
