Hello guys I recieved a letter from DL regarding 3D pinball for the nintendo ds, which I have never heard of until the letter. I wrote to them saying I have never heard of this game and never downloaded it and that I have a wireless router, they are demanding 602 pounds. They have now sent me a follow up letter.

sorry for the long read:

[ As far as fake ip addresses are concerned, whilst such faking is possible, our client has received advice from experts, which has confirmed that it is not possible to enter into a successful transaction on a p2p network whilst using a fake IP address. Our client's experts will also not gather torrents containing fake IP addresses as a result of the technical methods they employ.

we do not claim that you pc was used to commit the infringing act(although we do not exclude this possibility) nor do we claim that you downloaded our clients work. Our claim is that your internet connection was used to make our clients work available via one or more p2p networks. We have already supplied you with sufficient evidence ( just the ip address, time and date of download) to establish this claim in our original letter of claim. We also believe this evidence is sufficiently clear.

in the circumstances, unless you are able to provide a satisfactory explanation as to why you are not liable for the acts alleged against you and/or we recieve wrtitten undertaking and payment of 602 pounds with the next 14 days, we shall have no alternative but to take you to court basically.]

this is outrageous i told them they can check my pc if they wished i dont know what else to say.
