They will get money out of this. There are people out there who become frightened, pay when the threatening letter arrives with the appropriate letterhead, or the name of an organisation that is large enough to seem invincible. I hope I am wrong, but people are already starting to send money, and the longer this lasts there will be people having doubts and more will send money. We are conditioned that way. This is a cynical plan to raise money, a scam like any other. Once they stop and say that they are not carrying it any further [they dare not say they had no basis for the assertion] they will not return the money that is now residing in their coffers. Here in Oz there was a saddler who had made a saddle for a pastoral company, but couldn't recall which company he made it for, so he sent a bill for its manufacture to the ten pastoral companies that he had on his books. He received back 9 cheques. They will not care about litigation, because if they do not bring it on, no one else will, and if they do, it will be funded by those that are already sending money just to be sure and safe.
