A Legal Name Fraud billboard has appeared on Cheney Manor Road, Swindon.

The group, Legal Name Fraud, believe that it’s illegal to use a legal name, given at birth, and a legal name is Crown Copyrighted property.

These billboards are popping up across the country. I know, we’re confused too…

What exactly is legal name fraud?

You can find out more on their website: www.legalnamefraud.com.

The owners of the billboard space, Primesight, were unavailable for comment. And, we were unable to find any contact information for Legal Name Fraud.
