Zynga, the top social games maker on the web, is suing PlayersAuctions.com for trademark and copyright infringement. According to Milford & Associates LP, Zynga is accusing the defendant of allowing users to post and sell their Zynga game virtual currencies and virtual goods on their PlayersAuctions.com website, which is strictly against Zynga’s terms of service.

In the suit, Zynga claims that PlayersAuctions.com is using Zynga’s trademarks without authorization, earning profits off of Zynga’s virtual goods and virtual credits, violating their terms of service and using images from their games without permission.
