What is the name of your state?
California
I hope this is in the right category, but it seemed the closest to me. I received a letter from a lawyer threatening to sue me, however, they gave me 6 actions I could take in order to avoid further actions. One of them I think may not be lawful or legal, so I'm sure an expert here can answer that.
They demanded this of me: "(5) supply all identifying information (name, address, e-mail, IP, etc.) for anyone making NeoPets-related programs (this is how you were identified) or selling Neopoints;"
Shortly thereafter, they stated the following, "We will require you to actually supply information responsive to (5) as we will not accept a statement that you do not posess such information."
Can a private company actually force me to disclose information on other civilians? I see it as a grounds for someone I may implicate to sue me for giving away private information. And if someone turned me in respondant to their demands (as they state) am I able to fight them somehow for that?
Thank you very much for reading...
