yes but keep it brief ,theres on a template on the site I mentioned earlier as well as a chatroom if you need help asap.

The list of titles people are being accused off infringing is growing there are now over 10 titles..all pron and very explicitily named too which Conman mentioned will shame certain folk into paying up straight away but I think if your innocent why pay them ! !

yes i sent my letter yesterday "standard letter on a link posted on this site" i could realy do without this to as my car was stolen last week so had to buy a new one today also still paying for my old one... great just great then get this letter asking for £500.1p ha ha could my week get any worse !!

That's interesting, because the film (ACS:Law claim) that was downloaded here was also 'Army F***ers*.

When you consider the millions of downloads available, it's very strange how this particular gay porn film seems to be so popular with ACS:Law.

I have no idea if this film was downloaded via my internet connection, but I have never heard of it, and it certainly doesn't appear on any computer at any address I own.

As CMK says, I will wait for the Court summons, which will entail me having to appear in Court. I will have to fly back from my home in Thailand, and that will be the subject of my counter-claim when they lose this futile action.

Bring it on!

Hi

I have not had such a letter yet, but I have not registered with one of the Torrent download sites. I did read some press coverage on these awhile ago which put me off. The coverage concerned potential for being wrongly accused of downloading and breach of copyright.

It would be interesting to know from those posting, which Torrent site they have registered with? I am not a technology expert but I would suspect an IP address has been identified through your ISP & torrent site. Where did ACS law obtain the IP information. How can they be sure that the Torrent site attaches the correct IP address against the individual download record?

I would expect the torrent download company would have software enabled to protect the downloaders identity. Could such security mask or alter the IP address? If the software altered the IP address this could lead to wrongful accusations being made. Before any successful claim could be made by ACS Law they would have to be prove their case by producing very strong evidence, including witness by techical experts etc. Surely ACS Law should be suing the Torrent company and not pursuing individuals. I know these are file sharing sites but any copyright violation would not happen on any scale if the torrent company did not encourage the activity.

As CMK advises you could wait for the summons to arrive. The cost of taking any action due to the complexity of law should prohibit ACS Law from proceeding. If I was in this position and I was confident of my innocence, I would write to ACS law and ask them for the date/time, duration of the download and IP address, so that I could contact my ISP. At the same time I would deny the accusation based on the current facts known to me.

This company has now sent me another letter, saying that they are now withdrawing their offer to accept £500 - now they are demanding £600.

What a joke! I haven't replied in any way. But I look forward to the Court summons.

So their letter was never a demand, it was only an offer.

If you read the CAG site on this subject, this is going nowhere.
