I received an unsolicited email from “Bauer Types” licensing (via fontradar) demanding a response within 3 business days and immediately threatening to “transfer the dispute to our legal team,” plus “additional costs” and a 15% penalty. No evidence was provided. No prior notice was received. Just pressure and implied consequences.

The communication implied that “past usage must be addressed” even though the font files had already been removed and were no longer being served. The tone strongly suggested financial liability without providing any formal legal documentation or clear substantiation of damages.

This approach appears to rely on automated web scanning of publicly accessible assets followed by pressure-based outreach framed around retroactive licensing claims.

While intellectual property enforcement is legitimate in principle, the execution here felt disproportionate and commercially aggressive rather than constructive. The messaging seems designed to create urgency and perceived liability rather than facilitate resolution.

Recipients should independently verify their current hosting status and seek neutral advice before responding.

There is no opportunity to speak to someone with legal expertise. They rely on font licences as they currently stand, not as they were purchased in the past. There is no room for discussion or negotiation. This is not good business practice and it is confusing.

They contacted me for using an unlicensed font, I removed the font from the website, they still say I should pay! I want to sue them for harresment.

I purchased a theme from ThemeForest which, unfortunately, included a font that turned out to be under a separate licence. Shortly after, I was contacted by FontRadar demanding nearly €200 for the font usage.

I explained that the font came as part of a legitimate ThemeForest purchase, but they showed no interest in resolving the matter fairly, it was purely about money, with little regard for professionalism or good business practice.

I would strongly advise anyone in a similar situation to seek legal advice before paying, as companies like this would likely struggle to win such a case if the font was obtained through a third party.

Unfortunately, I went ahead and paid the fee at the time, but after consulting with my lawyer, I was advised that I shouldn’t have done so.
