Thank you for your e-mail.

We act on behalf of CIFAS and Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) , the Executive Director of CIFAS.

CIFAS have already complained to you that the information contained on your website regarding CIFAS is incomplete and does not provide a full or accurate picture of how CIFAS operates. We reserve CIFAS' rights in respect of the content of your website.

However, of greater concern to our clients is your identification of (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) on your website.

We understand from our clients that when you initially referred to Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) on your website, our clients requested you remove the reference to Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) and you agreed to do so. As you know, the basis of our clients' concerns at that time was that Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) had begun to receive abusive and threatening phone calls and silent phone calls at his home.

You subsequently deleted reference to Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) from your website by blanking out the references to him. We understand that the phone calls to Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) stopped.

Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) has recently received a number of further silent phone calls to his home. On checking your website, our clients were extremely concerned to note that you have amended it, not only to remove the blanking out of Mr 's (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) name but also, in a new section of your website, you have referred to Mr 's (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) request to remove his name and further have identified means by which anybody reading the website can obtain details of Mr 's (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) home address.

Your actions in this respect may at best be seen as reckless and at worst encouraging others to contact Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) at home his home.

The continuing publication of Mr 's (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) name and details of how his home address can be obtained is causing Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) a great deal of distress. If it is not your intention to encourage others to harass Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) , we suggest that you demonstrate this by immediately removing his name from your website and, in particular, removing the section where reference is made to Mr (Censored due to Cifas's legal threats) demanding that you remove his name. We invite you to act reasonably and responsibly in this respect. If you do not do so, our clients will consider legal action to require the removal of the material referred to above.

We note your comments in your earlier e-mail that you reserve the right to publish this correspondence. Given the subject matter of this correspondence, if you do publish it this will be taken by our clients to be a demonstration that you are not prepared to act reasonably and responsibly. Our clients do not consent to publication. Any liability that arises as a result of publication of this correspondence by you to third parties will be yours and yours alone.
