The Local reported today that thousands of Swedish residents have paid a fake fine after receiving letters in the mail saying they downloaded porn.
3 Worse Things Swedish Residents Could Pay A Fake Fine For
1. The instruction on page 17 of how to assemble an IKEA dresser could say to pay a fine for assembling the dresser with the drawers upside down.
If you get a letter in the mail fining you for too many ghosts at the table in this Swedish castle, it’s probably not legit.
2. A fine from Mötley Crüe alleging unauthorized use of umlauts, without paying the band, who owns the rights to all umlauts, the proper licensing fees.
3. A fine for downloading receipt porn from the Rich Swedish Kids of Instagram. We are unaware if such a web site exists, but if someone fines you for viewing a receipt of a $1 IKEA breakfast, it’s probably not legit.
