Hi MIke....It's Matt B.
How ya doin Mike? I know medically you've been thru hell and back more than once.......now you got this crap pile to deal with.
By the way, remember the black satin Schon jacket I got from you....I gave it to one of my daughters who just turned 21 and she wears often when she goes out with her friends.....and the funny part is she doesn't even play pool.....but it sure does attract lots of guys when she wears it.
In regard the situation at hand, always remember that free advice is worth exactly how much you pay to get it........."Nothing"........but sometimes there's truth in what might be brought up as conversation.
Knowingly engaging in the traffic of pirated CDs is definitely something you do not want to do but that's not what you'd actually be doing. You aren't selling the CDs and the fact that you bought, or received, CDs that may or may not be originals, or let's even say after the CDs arrived you "concluded" or "became worried" that the CDs were not originals......doesn't matter.....you are merely returning the property to its rightful owner.
Just make sure you include a written statement that advises the recipient that the CDs are being returned since you believe them to be copies and you cannot accept any CDs which are not originals unless the CD copy was duly authorized by the respective copy righted owner of any and all proprietary information, materials, photos and illustrations contained on the CD.
If you want to make this more iron-clad, just send a cc to your local District Attorney's office to illustrate and corroborate your good faith intentions. At the same time, you also have the added defense that since you do not know with absolute certainty these CDs are illegal copies, simply as a safeguard, you've returned the merchandise to its owner and have simultaneously notified the local legal authorities. Personally speaking, I wouldn't bother to cc the DA's office because they won't do anything.....the US Post Office is a lot more likely to do anything.
Regardless, I think just including the letter with the CDs suffices and offers you added protection. And keep in in mind what I stated earlier about the value of free advice...........mine included.
