I haven't a clue what to do with it. I did a search, of course, and this outfit is famous for pursuing copyright infringement cases against people who use BitTorrent. I don't.
The odd part is that they claim to have found content owned by me on a commercial website, and want to prepare a case against the thief. I've never heard of that happening before; has anyone else received this odd notice? Should I risk opening the two PDF files they attached?
Weird...

NEVER open anything in an email form people you don't know!!!
If you're really that bothered, you could call them and see it really was a genuine message.

Good point!

may be the original message and may also be fake

As you can not actually confirm that the email is from those attorneys, it is a spam!!! Do not open...

Maybe they are thieves and they want your cold, crinkled, cash, for pursuing themselves?

Even if it's a genuine email, that statement is probably still true.

I would stand with my esteemed colleagues in that I would advise contacting the firm to check on the email's authenticity. Moreover, every reputable law firm that I have ever had contact with would send that type of message via the post or in-person and not with an email.

Agreed. Lawyers don't seem to trust email.

Sounds a bit like this....
From time to time we get snail mail that's labled "Class Action" on the envelope. Someone is suing Company X for something, and at one time WAAAAAY back we used Company X for something.
So, they attorney prepares a lawsuit to include as plaintiffs EVERYONE the company has ever done business with that they can find.
Bottom line is, assuming you want to be part of it - the more people that accept - they less you each get.
Sooo, If you wrote some significant code that you care about, call them. Talk to the attorney. You know real quick.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Or more likely the link will take you to a download site that installs nastyware on your pc.

That's the nice thing about VirusTotal.com too: you can scan URLs before visiting them to determine if they contain malware. It's quite nice.

I just got one from the Australian Taxation Office, very well laid out with all the bells and whistles you would expect from a major govt department. Oh and no spelling mistakes and the grammar is better than mine.
They want me to open a fax attachment, doh!

This kind of scam has been seen to proliferate just before Christmas for a number of years, now. It started with text messages, but now it's migrated to e-mail (cheaper and harder to trace).
I myself received two e-mails this morning from Intrum Justitia, a big collections agency in NL, with the subject line "Openstande Factuur" (outstanding debt, more or less). Straight in the bin, obviously -- the esteemed collections thugs would put it on paper, not in an e-mail.
It seems that they gain some success by not aiming for amounts too large, and relying on the "I'm not going to let it spoil my Christmas!" mentality.
It just proves, once again, that the world is full of pieces of sht1 who wouldn't do good if you paid them a fortune for it.
