threat of legal action

[charlton]

I received an email from administrator-100@legal-notification.com
saying I was illegally using the trade mark "providence" to drive traffic to their competitors. I checked the page and it is an automatically generated doorway page and did have the word providence in one if the content links but did not link to my site. However I immetiately edided the page to remove the word.

Then a few weeks later I got another email about the same page threatening further action.

I have not responded as the word is not on the page anymore and I am not sure how genuine this is as their domain has no website on it.

Is it worth just deleting the page altogether or should I ignore it?

thanks keith, thats exactly the email i got. I thought it can't be serious as there was no postal details or phone number for the "lawyers".
