Fraudsters accuse customers of illegal file sharing
An Internet Service Provider (ISP) has reported that fraudsters are cold-calling households and accusing them of committing online copyright infringement, the Register reported.

The issue has been recognised by an ADSL provider, UKFSN, who said they had received a call from an elderly customer who was concerned that they may have been contacted by a fraudster.

They were accused of illegally sharing music. The UKFSN customer refused to give the caller their details and then asked which company they were calling from.

When the caller refused to give the customer their name, the UKFSN customer hung up and contacted their ISP to report the issue.

Jason Clifford, an employee at UKFSN, said on El Reg, a broadband forum that: "They told my customer they had proof he had been filesharing illegally. The important thing to remember is that no ISP would give out a phone number in a legal case."

News of the fraudulent activity follows a crackdown by record and film industry bodies to try to prevent illegal file sharing. They are calling on ISPs to work with them to detect an infringing IP address.ADNFCR-1805-ID-18766621-ADNFCR
