Congrats, Steve.

I wouldn't let the ink dry on that check before I cashed it.

I wish he would share his opinion here. He has given me great advice in the past.

Great stuff Steve.

Let's see a pic of the cheque :)

Why don't you post the amount? I want to know how "fat" this check actually is...

I've always been willing to share info with people I know and trust. All my friends have my private number.

Your sig never gets old for me. Absolute quality.

They've probably settled with most of them already. :2 cents:

How long did it take?

so are you making more from infringement cases yet than you are losing from pirates ?

It's good you monetizing people stealing from you.

We all know its not them paying because they knew they are guilty, it's them paying because they don't want to be exposed. Every professional you find is a win, every broke loser you find isn't going to pay up.

Congrats though, its good to see some people get caught and have to shell out bucks.

Congrats indeed. Someone is making money in porn SOMEhow and it might as well be you.

Wasn't the asking price $1700 to settle? Is that what's sitting in your hand, and if so, and a check, how do you know its good?

no christmas in some households in whoville this year.

If and when it comes down to that, suits can be filed anonymously protecting the defendant's identity from what I understand. No need to publicize.

pics ? :)

congrats to the winner

At least it's working. Doesn't have to work 100% of the time but if people find out that other people are getting sued at least some of them will stop or never start.

I don't think the point is to collect on EVERY pirate, I think the point is to start deterring people who are or might pirate porn.

grats to you oon this! :thumbsup

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

congrats steve

steve oh steve ...

With Ketchup only :winkwink:

You should reinvest at least 50% into keywords for the different torrent sites so they gain more traffic, run them through your own domain so you already have their IP in advance and just shoot out the settlement letters as they click through.... :winkwink:

So is this big fat check from a single pirate or combined? And if combined what kind of number (as in people not money) are we looking at?

Just wondering.

How much did you get? And from what site?
Or do you not want to tell us so that you can milk the cow further?

i really dont believe you until you take a pic of the check
