Dear xxxx xxxx:

We recently received the attached notice from BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox claiming that your Internet account may have been used for copyright infringement. Specifically, BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox claims that your account was used to reproduce and/or distribute copyrighted content without authorization to other users of an Internet-based file-sharing network. We are forwarding this notice at the request of BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox -- please see the enclosed document.

Content providers such as BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox routinely monitor file-sharing networks to determine if their copyrighted movies and music are being distributed illegally over the Internet. BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox identified your AT&T account by its numeric IP address, a string of numbers identifiable by any site from which you upload or download files. When an Internet user connects to file-sharing networks, the IP address assigned to the computer connected to the Internet becomes publicly available to other members of the network. Consistent with our Customer Privacy Policy, AT&T has not released your name or any other personal information to BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox, but is forwarding this notice to you so that this issue may be resolved without any further action.

You should be aware that copyright infringement is a violation of U.S. law, and potentially punishable by fines and other criminal penalties. It also is a violation of the AT&T Acceptable Use Policy, which governs your use of AT&T Internet services. If infringing activity persists, BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox may choose to seek a court order requiring AT&T to provide it with your name and address so it can pursue legal action against you.

By forwarding this complaint, AT&T is not making any accusation of wrongdoing. Rather, we are bringing BayTSP, Inc. on behalf of Fox's notice to your attention so that you can take prompt and appropriate steps to prevent any further activity of this nature from occurring over your Internet account. Steps you may consider taking include:

1) Ceasing any sharing of copyrighted content that might be
occurring via file sharing software, services or networks;
2) Securing your home Wi-Fi network to ensure others are not
accessing the Internet through your connection to download or
distribute illegal content;
3) Talking with family members or guests who may have used your
Internet connection in ways you are not aware of;
4) Using virus and spyware protection software to protect against
security threats and ensure your Internet connection is not
being used in ways that you have not authorized;
5) Learning how federal copyright law applies to online activities
by visiting the U.S. Copyright Office's website at
http://www.copyright.gov/.

Violations of the Acceptable Use Policy can result in termination of your AT&T service. We encourage you to review the AT&T Acceptable Use Policy online at http://www.corp.att.com/aup/ and the AT&T Customer Privacy Policy at http://www.att.com/privacy.

AT&T is committed to protecting your personal information and ensuring the best possible online experience for all customers. Please review the attached letter for information regarding the alleged copyright infringement. If you have any questions regarding your AT&T Internet account or AT&T policies, please call us at 1-866-618-7991 or email us at [email protected].

Notice ID: 160-638455
Notice Date: 4 Nov 2008 17:57:33 GMT


Dear Sir or Madam:

TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX FILM CORPORATION and its affiliated companies (collectively, "Fox") own intellectual property rights, including exclusive rights protected under copyright law, in many motion pictures, television programs and other audiovisual works (collectively, the Fox Titles). We believe that your AT&T Internet account is being used to reproduce and/or distribute copies of one or more Fox Titles on the Internet, in violation of Fox's legal rights. We have set forth at the close of this letter the details concerning this infringement, including the title(s) of the Fox Title(s) in question, the IP address of your account at the time of the infringement, and the date and time of the infringement. The documentation included at the end of this notice specifies the location of the infringement. The audiovisual works being offered through your Internet account include the following:

Title: The Secret Life of Bees


The copying and/or distribution of copies of copyrighted audiovisual works without the authorization of the copyright owner constitutes copyright infringement under the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. §§ 106, 501. This conduct may subject you to significant liability, including statutory damages of up to $150,000 per infringed work for willful infringement. Under certain circumstances, copyright infringement can give rise to federal criminal liability, with penalties as high as five years imprisonment plus a $250,000 fine. (See 17 U.S.C. § 506; 18 U.S.C. § 2319.)

Such infringing activity also constitutes a violation of AT&T's Abuse Policy/Terms of Service Agreement, and such breach may give AT&T the right to terminate your Internet access service.

Fox is committed to creating a positive online environment where consumers have many legal choices for enjoying movies and TV shows over the Internet, and we hope you will take advantage of this growing array of safe, legitimate options. Although various legal and equitable remedies may be available to Fox as a result of such infringement, Fox believes that the entire Internet community benefits when these matters are resolved cooperatively. We urge you to take immediate action to effect removal of the detected infringement listed in the attached report, including:

1) Cease any unauthorized offering or downloading of the above title(s), and any other film or television titles whose copyright is owned Fox, on any peer-to-peer or other internet services; and

2) Delete from your computer any unauthorized copies of the above title(s), and any other film or television titles owned by the Fox, which you have downloaded from or offered on any peer-to-peer or other internet services.
