DO YOU stream sport, films or TV shows on your computer illegally?

Well, if the answer is yes, you could receive a warning letter through the post in the near future.

Internet companies such as BT, Virgin Media, TalkTalk and Sky will be sending out letters to subscribers if they access illegal streams as part of a Government crackdown on pirating sites.

The letters will be sent to customers thought to have downloaded copyrighted material without consent, or without subscriptions.

But, the companies won’t fine those who do illegally stream shows, instead they will advise how to watch the shows legally.

So, that means if you watch smash-hit shows such as Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Black or Stranger Things, but not through an official site, you may receive a letter.

The first batch of letters were sent out at the start of this week, with more to be delivered through letterboxes in the coming weeks.

According to the BBC, the letter, which is part of the Get it Right Government campaign, reads: "Get It Right from a Genuine Site' has got in touch with us.

"Get it Right is a government-backed campaign acting for copyright owners who think their content's been shared without their permission.

"It looks like someone has been using your broadband to share copyrighted material (that means things like music, films, sport or books).

"And as your broadband provider, we have to let you know when this happens."
