Subject: Reference: Your Claim [Case ID: XXXXXX] - Request for Documentation and Notice to Cease Harassment
Dear COPYTRACK Representatives,
I am writing regarding your correspondence dated [DATE] concerning alleged copyright infringement under Case ID XXXXXX.
After careful review of your claim, I must inform you that the image in question was obtained through legitimate channels with proper authorization. Your repeated communications containing escalating threats without substantiating evidence raise serious concerns about the nature of your activities.
Your pattern of sending multiple threatening notices with escalating demands appears to constitute a form of corporate harassment that may violate Article 238 of the German Criminal Code (StGB), as amended on October 1, 2021. This legislation explicitly addresses digital forms of harassment (Cyberstalking), which includes repeated unwanted communications designed to create psychological distress.
Before any further discussion can proceed, I require you to furnish the following documentation:
1. Verifiable evidence establishing that your client is the legitimate copyright holder of the image in question, including original registration documentation or equivalent proof of ownership
2. Legal documentation confirming that your organization has been properly authorized to represent the copyright holder in this specific matter, including the scope and limitations of such authorization
3. Comprehensive evidence demonstrating how my use of the image constitutes infringement, including:
• Precise timestamps and URL locations where the alleged infringement was detected
• Specific details of how the usage violates applicable copyright provisions
• Evidence that the copyright extends to the jurisdiction where my organization operates
4. Legal basis explaining how German copyright law applies to content hosted in a non-German jurisdiction and targeting non-German audiences
Until you provide this essential documentation, I request that you immediately cease all further communications regarding this matter. Continued pattern of threatening correspondence without substantiating your claims could be reported to relevant authorities as a potential violation of harassment statutes in both German and local jurisdictions.
I maintain that my use of the image is legitimate and authorized. Should you provide the requested documentation, I will review it thoroughly and respond accordingly.
Regards,
[Your Name]

Subject: Your Communication Regarding Case ID XXXXXX - Jurisdictional Challenge and Cease Harassment Request
Dear COPYTRACK Representatives,
I acknowledge receipt of your correspondence dated [DATE] concerning Case ID XXXXXX.
I categorically affirm that the image in question was acquired through proper channels with legitimate authorization. Your organization's repeated cross-border communications containing legal threats without sufficient evidence constitutes a concerning pattern that may qualify as systematic harassment under Article 238 of the German Criminal Code (StGB), as amended specifically in October 2021 to address digital forms of harassment (Cyberstalking).
Your communication pattern exhibits several troubling characteristics:
• Sending multiple escalating notices
• Changing case identification numbers for identical claims
• Progressively increasing monetary demands
• Threatening legal action without establishing jurisdictional authority
• Creating undue psychological pressure through deadline tactics
Before this matter can proceed any further, I formally request the following:
1. Comprehensive Documentation of Copyright Ownership
Provide certified documentation establishing your client's original ownership of the image copyright, including creation date, registration information, and territorial scope of protection.
2. Authorization Verification
Supply legally binding documentation confirming your organization's authority to pursue this matter on behalf of the purported copyright holder, including the specific territorial jurisdiction granted in this authorization.
3. Detailed Infringement Evidence
Furnish precise documentation of the alleged infringement, including exact URL locations, timestamps, and specific manner in which the usage allegedly violates applicable copyright provisions.
4. Cross-Border Jurisdiction Justification
As my organization is registered and operates exclusively in [YOUR COUNTRY], outside German jurisdiction, provide detailed legal analysis explaining the specific international treaties, agreements, or legal principles that would grant German copyright enforcement authority over content hosted and published in [YOUR COUNTRY].
My organization has no legal presence in Germany, does not target German consumers, and operates solely under [YOUR COUNTRY] law. This raises fundamental questions about the applicability of German copyright provisions to this matter.
I hereby formally request that you cease all further communications regarding this matter unless you can provide the documentation requested above. Continued unsupported claims and threatening communications may constitute harassment under both German law and the laws of [YOUR COUNTRY].
Upon receipt of proper documentation addressing these concerns, I will review the matter with appropriate legal counsel and respond accordingly.
Regards,
[Your Name]
