hi guys,
My friend got a legal notice from AC yesterday. He forwarded me the mail.
Here is the message:
"It has come to our attention that you have been publishing stolen content under several AC accounts.
We have permanently banned your account on Associated Content, as well as any affiliated accounts.
Any of your submissions for which we offered payment, but have yet to send payment, have been removed from our website. We have rescinded these offers and cancelled the pending payments.
Additionally, we will be reviewing the content you submitted that was published on Associated Content to see if any of it violated copyright laws. You agreed to indemnify AC for any financial damages it incurs because of your breach of section 7 of the Master License Agreement. Accordingly, in the event that AC is sued because of your violation of a third party?s intellectual property rights, please be advised that we will look to you to recoup any of these financial damages, including?but not limited to?any attorney's fees incurred defending the action.
If you open another account(s) in the future, it will be closed automatically without notice. If you continue to open accounts and use aliases on PayPal, we will file a formal complaint with PayPal, which could ban you and any affiliated accounts you may have with their services as well.
Regards,
AC Legal Team"
I dunno what to say him. Should he quit doing AC or he can continue. Can he really be sued? He is worried.
Ur advices might help.
