The bozos were dumb enough to send me the email directly (well to my Gmail). It said that it was from my website (but with their email address), that my site is part of their "network", and then concluded with the name of my website and a street address that was c/o them and their business premises.

I own all the close URLs for my website, and am the only one worldwide using name or other variants. (I've been using it since 2004.)

The company doing the claiming is large enough to be sued (turnover probably $28-30 mil a year), but any ideas on what steps to take/ laws they might be breaking/ etc, etc?

Any and all feedback welcome....
Dealing with advertising networks gives me hope that there are indeed slimier people in mainstream than adult.
