Guys i need help.

[newbie]

I was selling on ebay college ebooks, and then ebay suspended me for that, then i receive a letter from ceng@ge le@rning for copyright infringement asking $350 to settle, i ignored it so they sent me another one saying after that they will go to court.Should i be worried, i could say somebody hacked into my account or somebody that new me open an account in my name.The ip that account was used is stealth but not the ebay account, i didn't use ssn.Any advice would be greatly appreciated,thanks.

If everything is ⊗⊗⊗⊗ information, ditch all of it, is what I say. How are they going to bring someone who doesn't exist to court?

ignore letter, there are alot of posts on this topic...

[newbie]

Define 'letter'? Was it email or via post? Basically what the others have said is correct but there is a bit extra I may add for you

If it was under your name/address... you should pay to avoid the trouble. If it was not under your name... then don't worry

[newbie]

it was mailed via post

[ILovePaypalNOT]

your real name on the letter?

[gavros777]

Don't start with the stupidity. I LOVE the delete button

Someone please explain how you can get in trouble for selling college books online.

[GreenBean]

^^^There are IP rights to these books. (Intellectual Property). Overall there's a number of college lecturers who have written guide books for certain subjects.
Their knowledge has gone into these.

The young whippersnippers come along & decide to make a buck for themselves.
Some of the authors are now getting retribution. In many instances 'sellers' have claimed the work is their own.

Now there's payback happening

[philly387]

But I thought it was law that once you purchase something you can do whatever the hell you want to do with it? Well except copy it obviously.

[newbie]

Sorry GB just tried to make a funny.

^^^ silly people would take those comments seriously.
