    It's fake. They'd be using an official email. Plus, there are errors.

    Example: "As you may be aware, You can be held liable".

    Scammer. That email doesn't make any sense. For example:

    "You may be contacted at:"

    "We have received what appears to be a valid DMCA complaint"

    I think the scammer got confused. They meant to write an email sounding as if they were attorneys acting for Disney, but instead signed the email as if they ARE Disney.

      ...I was actually wondering how they got that email, but I forgot about the Public Registration on that particular domain.

      Thanks you for your answers, some are ready to put up a lot of things
