Anyone have a decent C & D letter?
 

I'm looking for a C & D letter to issue to websites in violation of copyright infringments and was wondering if anyone was willing to share one with me or know where i could possibly buy one online.

Thanks,

Joe

Try your lawyer.

I find lawyers usually have pretty good ones...:winkwink:

No point in bothering lawyer for something so simple.. if the issue gets worse by them not removing the images then its time for the lawyer ;)

Invest in a lawyer and have them send out an authentic C & D letter to the infringing parties certified mail. Reason being, you'll get a much higher success rate of enforcing the copyright, and won't have to put up with newbies who challenge you because you sent them a C&D via email. :2 cents:

the above is for creditors but maybe you can tweak it

Hey you!
Stop using my pics on your website or me and my lawyers will come and kick your ass.
Thanks in advance,

Maybe thats what i should do ;)

is the person you want to send this too in the US?

Yup, I asked them to take down the images but i can see this getting messy/them not complying with a 'friendly' request.

Im just waiting to see what they have to say before i make it public but i will probably get a lawyer to handle it if they become a prick.

ICQ me

Joe,

If this happens to be about the screen caps of your content that we're using on the Ultra MPEGs tour due to a previously arranged agreement, there's no sense in sending a C&D, as a simple request to remove images will suffice. With that said, the tour is being redesigned as we speak, hopefully the new tour will be up tomorrow.

Why don't you use the C&D letter you got when you were selling stolen feeds??

IF the violator is in the USA or uses USA-based e-commerce it is very easy to get your content removed.

these days all USA based hosts and e-commerce vendors fall under the DMCA and can be cited as "contributory infringers" under the no electronic theft act signed into law by Pres Clinton.

they are the deep pockets that carry the big stick in getting your stuff removed.

before they will do that they will make the violators' website go dark.

when you contact the violator include in you C & D the link to the host's "agent for copyright" info. explain to the violator that you will be contacting his e-commerce vendor and host within 48 hours if your content is not removed.

if the offender is outside the usa, it is a little more difficult---but most hosts and e-commerce companies even outside the USA will cooperate.

Yeah, well dealing with Pimp Dog has taught me there are some scum out there. He basically told me to go fuck myself and decided not to pay his bill. He was able to use the stuff as long as he was a member, which he has not been for close to/over a month.

[18:18] hahahaha Media: maybe 5 years, maybe 1 day
[18:18] hahahaha Media: who knows
[18:18] hahahaha Media: sue me idiot
[18:19] 5956902: you want to play this game
[18:19] 5956902: fine


Nice way to do biz. I might just have to do that if the stuff isnt down in 48hrs.

Okay, so, is Pimp Dog an actual unique individual? Or a character of someone ?...

Cheers,
Matt
