Nope, I'm the only one that uses this computer. I'm going to try and find some IP logs somewhere, if I downloaded the movie I can see getting a email or letter like this, but a movie I have never heard of from a tracker I have never heard of is strange.

Sometimes your ISP will ask for a contact email when you signup and you'll forget that you ever gave it to them.

Go to the page in the email and say that it is a mistake, they have an option for that. And I'd edit it out so no one uses it to falsely admit that you are guilty. It says you seeded for two days, from aug 10th-12th with said IP. Do you have that IP now, if so about hot long have you had it? If you have IP logs I'd be digging them up right now.

My IP is different now, but it changes all the time.

I'm just tripping where they got my Gmail account from. It's not linked to my Charter.net account at all.

I see no reason to doubt the notice's authenticity. It's very similar in nature to many other such letters from ISPs that I have come across. I don't see how it could benefit someone to try and trick you in this matter. If in doubt, you could always call you ISP as the letter suggest, to check up on the matter.

Otherwise, it's just a warning, not a notice of legal action.
Disregard it and be wiser about your actions in the future.

So you only have one computer in your home?

Yes.

I don't think it's legitimate. They would have sent you a letter in the mail, and not mail a random gmail account. Also, they would have addressed the letter to your name, not 'Internet Access Subscriber'.

I doubt that, when I used public trackers way back in 03, the DMCA notices were by email.

"We’re Sorry – Page Not Found
