Imitator (अनुकरणकर्ता)

In some cases, however, it is also possible that such a purchaser after having been misled into an initial interest in a product manufactured by an imitator discovers his folly, but this initial interest being based on confusion and deception can give rise to a cause of action for the tort of passing off as the purchaser has been made to think that there is some connection or nexus between the products and business of two disparate companies.

Their most likely imitator will be Iran, especially if hostility between Tehran and Washington continues to mount.
