warning letter
In short and in plain language
A warning letter is a formal written demand. The sender says you broke the law and asks you to stop.
It usually comes with a statement to sign. In it you promise not to do it again.
Rival firms or trade groups often send it. Reasons can be missing required details, other people's photos or misleading adverts.
For a small business it can lead to costs.
