I wouldn't worry too much. There was a thread like this a while ago. Some people have been pretending to be RIAA representatives in order to scare others. I also don't see any reason they would need to tell you about a subpoena before it's actually issued.

[e mag]

if a company like the RIAA was going to contact you to tell you this, do you really think they would use an instant messanging program? come on, someone im'ing to tell you you are going to be sued, it should be fairly obvious that it's a friend or someone who found your aol name somewhere online playing a joke on you.
edit: i wish one of these people would im me just so i could mess aroudn with them.

[InfinatyBPS]

After a while he told me that he just seen a me posting in a thread and wanted to mess with me:p

[land hurricane]

yeah, i got about the same thing a few weeks ago. but i blocked him.

[-Carnifex-]

No, these kind of pranks are popular, look at the text file section of albinoblaksheep.com. It doesn't even sound real, and if you were, I'm pritty shure they wouldnt im you. Also, the people who get in trouble are people who make sights with music downloads on them, and people who download hundreds of songs a day.
