    Someone msged me over K-Lite K++ and basically said they were an RIAA employee and they happened to notice my username on the RIAA's "to sue" list, I told him I was British and he said "its no longer an american game, we are sueing outside america now, and we've done 100,000 outside america (sued)"

    I KNEW this was bullshit, straight away, but i played along anyway, and in the end, he asked me for $50 (thats DOLLARS, even though I clearly stated im BRITISH, meaning I would work in pound sterling) and if i paid him, he would delete my name from the list, he stressed the fact that he was "going out on a limb for me" and he could get fired

    anyway as soon as money was mentioned i got bored and told him to go fuck himself, he then suddenly disapeared

    if you are EVER contacted in a simalar way, i suggest you tell them where to shove it

    Good for you - The main hole in their bullshit was the part where they "sued 100,000 outside America".

    That is complete BS - They haven't even sued that many inside America
