So I got an email from my ISP saying I illegally downloaded some porn using Bittorrent

So I got an email from my ISP saying I illegally downloaded some porn using Bittorrent

Video: Birthday Boy Gets A Treat

Company: MG Content DP Limited

It says they want a 198$ settlement before a deadline or they will seek litigation.

>lawsuit up to $5000 because Canada

The thing is, I don't use Bittorrent and I only saw/streamed the video for the first time since googling the title after receiving the email.

>not bad

Now I've had the same wifi password for 3 years and some friends who aren't exactly buddy buddy with me anymore to say the least. So I immediately thought that this was their doing, some kind of 'fuck you' in prank form. Needles to say, my wifi has since been strengthened.

I've also considered the possibility that it's a phishing scam but the time of the disputed download matches up perfectly to the time my one douche of a friend was in town.

Any advice user?

ISP scams are common, user

>from my ISP
fake, ignore. your ISP provides data. the rights holders sue.

Peer 2 peer is legal in canada. Torrent all ypu want you bitch ass bitch.

thx for reply

lol I used Utorrent wayyyy back in the day for old games, haven't ever got it again since I got Steam

If you are from canada then they basically cant do shit. They send those emails basically to brow beat you into paying out of court. If you tell them to eat shit nothing will happen. In canada they can only sue you for the value what you downloaded, so for a shitty porno lets say 30 bucks. So if they take you to court they are going to have to pay a lawyer to take it to court. These are money making enterprises, they are not going to risk loosing it by taking you to court

I would just remove that mail and go about my day as usual. Unless someone actually knocks at your door or leaves a written official letter in your door you can ignore these scare mails and potential scammers.

Its not legal but there are no laws making it a criminal or civil offence.

This is essentially what I gathered after reading into it

Yea this seems to make the most sense

The laws in canada are, aparently, supposed to deter people who seed huge ammounts of pirated content

could they not sue for lawyer and attorney fees if they choose to take it to court?

Send them a picture of a spider valued at $198 that should settle the matter in full

ignore it. they want you to admit to doing it so they can go after you. it would cost them more money to take you to court.

Sure but thats assuming they win. The really big reason why they never sue is because the burden of proof lies with the plaintiff (the people who filed the law suit). Its widely accepted that the proof the copyright trolls are using is deeply flawed. If they try and sue somebody, then loose, there will at that point be case law supporting the defendants making any future litigation extremely difficult for the copyright trolls.

Why would your isp care if you stole porn from some degenerates?

And how would MG content DP Limited convince your isp to investigate one shitty porno downloaded when $10,000s worth of shit is downloaded every day

Sounds like a scam

Tell them why they have it wrong and then tell them to bring it on and you'll counter sue for $50K for malicious prosecution and civil fraud. They will go away.

I've considered something along this line

However, they don't know anything other than an IP atm and contacting them will direct them to personal information

The way it works is the copyright troll monitors the torrent, track your IP to your ISP and send a copyright complaint. Your ISP forwards the complaint to you. But the complaint is not supposed to contain demands for money. The copyright trolls demand money because they count on people not arguing it and giving them money.

Shit I just told them to eat a dick and they went away

ISP won't email you about that, they don't own porn just provide internet service.

stop downloading gay pron

you might get away with it now, but GOD will send you to HELL

There's two parts to the email. One from the ISP saying they're simply relaying the message of notice of copyright violation

And second half is the the message/threat from MG content DP Limited

u can google it, it's some borderline femdom with some alirght looking redhead girl banging your typical pornoguy
