I got a letter from NagraStar accusing me of piracy, what do I do?
First of all, keep in mind that this letter is not a scam. When NagraStar settles with pirates who operate online services that sell illegal content, we commonly receive transaction evidence of all the sales made to end users and secondary resellers. NagraStar uses this information to send letters and emails proposing a settlement amount to avoid litigation. These settlements are necessary for television providers to recoup the loss resulting from potential customers that resort to watching illegal content. Many who receive our letters have no idea that they were watching stolen content, due to the fact that many of these piracy sites don't admit to selling stolen content which could drive away potential customers.
To avoid litigation and a possible lawsuit, it is extremely recommended that you call one of the numbers listed on your letter. Please call 1-844-728-7226 or 787-945-7102 for Puerto Rico; or email us at [email protected]. One of our associates will gladly speak to you in either English or Spanish during 8 AM - 4 PM Mountain Time (UTC - 07:00). Choosing to ignore this letter will result in your referral to our legal team. This usually leads to a lawsuit, which results in a judgement that is public record. In court, every illegal purchase made can carry a hefty fine of up to $10,000. It is in your best interest, as well as NagraStar's, to settle this matter outside of court with a pre-suit settlement offer to avoid heavy fines and to keep this matter confidential.
Generally for Internet Key Sharing piracy, NagraStar accepts $3,500 from those who have purchased illegal content and $7,500 from those who have resold illegal content as suitable settlement offers. For resellers of infringing streaming services, Nagrastar usually accepts $25,000 settlement offers. NagraStar also is open to negotiating the settlement amount. Piracy equipment such as set-top boxes and streaming devices can be sent in to lower the settlement amount. We also accept piracy forum credentials in the form of a username and password. If you are experiencing financial difficulties or hardships, our team will work with you to create a personalized monthly payment plan. Please don't ignore the letter. Give us a call at 1-844-728-7226 or 787-945-7102 (Puerto Rico), email us at [email protected], or send a letter to the following address:
