Solidworks/CJCH Sols - Maria Vinces - copyright infringement threats/Fake Licence

[Keith_01]

Hi All

I have read the articles above which has put my mind at ease, but this Maria Vinces one keeps hounding us saying we have a fake Solidworks license.

Ive not replied to her, i presume the best thing is not to reply to her.
Every time she emails she asks about finding an amicable solution, everything about it sounds like shes trying to get us to pay quick money. 
A proper company wouldn't conduct its self this way.
Its getting pretty annoying at this stage i feeling like replying & telling her where to go as we dont even use this software.
She say the mediation period is running out putting more pressure on us.

Please if anyone can give me advice, i would appreciate it.

Hi @Keith_01

I've split your post into a different thread here. Please post in here from now on.

As is the advice, simply ignore this Maria person. Block any calls/texts and bounce back any emails from them.

If you get a letter of claim BY POST come back here, but having a quick look through the other Solidworks/CJCH threads here we've never seen that happen. Anything other than that is just hollow threats.

Hi Lolerz

Thanks for replying to me, yes I've been ignoring her & will continue to do so.

All she keeps saying is they want to come up with an amicable settlement.

Keeps saying this to our receptionist she shouldn't be saying this to a receptionist or even me in the first place as they have given no proof of anything no IP addresses noting just keeps saying about an amicable settlement.

Hi all, these people won't leave us alone this Cjch solicitors in Wales are now phoning our office looking to speak to me on behalf of Maria Vince's the dispute they say between us & Dassault systems SOLIDWORKS corporation.

It's starting to stress us a bit as it's always on the back of my mind when checking emails.

Could anyone please give me more advice.

Many thanks Keith

Block and bounce back all emails, calls etc.

the ONLY thing you need to worry about is a letter of claim, which is something that has NEVER happened here.

CJCH, like any "debt" collector, has NO legal powers AT ALL.

If they call on a landline simply state that they are not to call you again and put the phone down. Many landlines also offer call blocking services for free so take a note of the number and block it through your service provider or phone directly.

Hi Lolerz

Thanks for getting back to me, we have a receptionist who I told not to transfer any more calls to me as I've never spoke on the phone to them & blocked all emails but they still go into junk mail.

If a letter of claim comes I'll post back but hopefully not.

They still won't actually give me any details of anything just that they want to settle it amicable.

At what point do these people leave us alone.

I wonder from the threads above & the people who posted on here still have any dealings with them.

Just a bit stressful

Thanks

They'll give up when they realise they aren't getting any money from you. How long that is could be anything. Just keep ignoring them and they'll go away eventually.

Don't lose sleep over it, CJCH are absolutely powerless.

[Keith_01]

Really appreciate your advice puts my mind at ease thanks

Hey Keith, dealing with the exact same thing at the moment. They're probably just doing another scam wave.

The people calling are literally just "Analysts" to further quiet your nerves. They can't even type an email address right. not the smartest people in the world.

Eventually they'll give up. Maybe.
