GoldenEye international - nice little scam going!

[JayJay]

Maybe you either
a) Shouldn't have downloaded porn at your mums (that's so 2000s, you can just stream it now, you know)
b) Should just confess to your mum and pay the fine

Maybe you should go over there and count something.

GEIL have sent a letter to my mother. Nothing to do with me. She's innocent. Good luck to them.

She does but surely that is a separate entity.

What right do GEIL have to know shes moved? the IP alleged has nothing to do with her new property.

Nope. You get assigned the same SkyID and have different packages assigned or unassigned to your ID. So they'll know that account 123456789 had access to whatever packages over the course of your history as a Sky customer. If you cancel Sky in its entirety, you may well end up with a different Sky ID, but if you've just switched broadband provider then they'll be able to tie them back. Read back in the thread though and you'll see that it's virtually impossible for them to prove which device it was downloaded on.

Go over where? To your mothers? What will I be counting - how many biscuits she'll give me?

Guess who has contracted for Sky

Look on TPB and count how often she leeches/seeds.

Go on, who?

Received a letter from Sky, not panicking one bit and as soon as that letter came got in touch with Michael Coyle who works at Lawdit Solictors. Would be more than happy to volunteer my PC to them if they wanted, got nothing to hide and they won't find anything.

For now all he said was the following;

1. If you decide to represent yourself you need to expect at least three letters from Goldeneye over the next few weeks/months.

2. I do not expect a claim to be made by Goldeneye but they will keep the pressure on you.

JayJay - don't panic and just get in touch with Lawdit.

Since IP addresses regularly change, with each one swapping between various users, can't quite see how Sky can tell them anything unless it is logging all usage? Why are they doing that?

I check mine a lot as I do a lot of website testing and then need to delete my own "purchases" from the database.

They are (obviously) logging IP/date ranges.
