######### Remember to use plain text format folks, HTML clogs up my ticket system, makes my job harder, and makes your takedown notice less likely to be processed in a timely manner. HTML belongs on the web, not in my inbox. ######### Sample Email: ######### 1. Infringed Work: ABC Widgets Linux isos 2a. Url (http://ebb.la/debian-iso/) I, the undersigned, do solemnly and sincerely declare and CERTIFY UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY that: 1. I am the owner or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the owner of certain intellectual property rights, said owner being named ABC Widgets, INC ("IP Owner"). 2. I have a good faith belief that the materials identified above are not authorized by the above IP Owner, its agent, or the law and therefore infringe the IP Owner's rights according to the laws of My Country 3. To the best of my knowledge the information contained within this notice is accurate and correct. Signed, John Doe Title ABC Widgets, Inc 123 Address Lane MyCity, Province, Postcode My Country Phone Number ######### Notes: ######### *Please* do: => whitelist copyright@isohunt.com in your spam filters => leave a phone number in case we need to get ahold of you for any reason. => email from a verifiable email address, as per the above example, a valid email address would be john.doe@abcwidgetsinc.com. *Please* do not: => thank us for doing our jobs, it only clogs our ticket system => add us to your address book, we don't need to be seed => attempt to send us 'registered email' since it will probably fail to reach us => accuse us of infringement, we're a search engine, and we didn't 'put' any of your files on our site, nor have your files ever touched our servers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent) => email us prior to going on vacation/putting up a vacation auto-reply If you are referred back to our copyright policy, it is not because we are assholes, stupid, or just feel like being difficult, it is because you missed something from the above example, and we need more information from you prior to processing your complaint. If you believe that being threatening or rude towards us is going to benefit you in any way, I will inform you now that that is a very serious lapse in judgement, we deal with copyright owners on a regular basis, and will not think twice about making it significantly more difficult for you to get the satisfaction that you desire. It is a *courtesy* that we allow email takedowns, not a requirement of any law, nor is it a requirement that we accept email from you, your ISP, or your lawyers. In closing, thank you graciously for reading all of this, and please, try to at least treat us with a modicum of professionalism, and we'll happily do the same right back at you :-)
