A 72 year old man from Hawaii has received a letter from an attorney claiming he has illegally downloaded a movie, and over 1000 other downloads. He received a letter offering an easy $3,900 settlement, which would increase to $4,900 if he failed to respond before August 7th.
These "illegal download" lawsuits are getting out of hand. They seem nearly impossible to prove in a court that someone is guilty, and only seem to tie up legal resources to try and scam people out of a few thousand dollars. I really hope this gentleman fights back.
"I know definitely that I’m not guilty and my wife is not guilty. So what’s going on? Did somebody hack us? Is somebody out there actively hacking us? How they do that and go about doing that, I have no idea,"
