Thread: Please Help...stolen photos again.

I need to find out who this vendor is and if they have a website. This is the second time someone has used these images I have taken of these skirts without permission. I sent an email last time this happened asking them nicely to either pay for the images and to please NOT crop my copyright out of it and to please not include it in the email. They said they were sorry. So just now I got another email with even more pics they took all cropped with copyrights gone. It doesnt look like the same email address as last time and might not be the same people LOL...I am so mad.

I need to figure out who they are. Anyone getting the same emails??

Please help!!

I am getting emails from this address:

Just wanted to give you a BIG THANKS!!!! I have sent the vendor and the site a message. I have posted to our local community as well as a big boycott blast on FB. I am getting all my friends to contact them and hoping that by swamping them w/ emails, they will remove that photo. LOL

Thanks so much for finding this!

I see pictures of Akai Silk veils, too. That person is really disgusting :-(

I know..I already sent Jess a message on FB letting her know....I have sent this vendor numerous emails....

,f:: Outrageous. Some of these thieves deserve a one-way ticket to not-heaven.

So I got an email from them last night apologizing how some person copied and pasted the photos from a catalog or something. I couldnt quite understand what they meant. I told them to take it also off the Alibaba site and it's gone. But I will be on the lookout it doesnt mysteriously pop up again under a new name.

These are the skirts/photos
Moorish Gypsy Skirt

If anyone finds these photos on any random site, please let me know.

Thanks!

I'm glad they at least listened. That doesn't happen as often.

I have just recieved an email from them:
wholesalebellydancesuppliess@hotmail.com

Can forward the email on to you if you wish.. I have emailed them as well to remove pics.

UGH!!! I cant believe they are still using it....they are going to be the death of me..I tell you!!!

If you still have, yes please forward it to

monika@woodlandwillow.com

they probably just removed my name from their mailing list now. LOL

**If anyone else gets this email w/ those photos..I would so appreciate you emailing them back letting them 'have it!" !!

Thanks

The alibaba site is a sort of clearinghouse for wholesalers. almost like an e-bay for wholesalers to sell to retailers. Hundreds (thousands?) of wholesalers post their items/images there.

So, like e-bay, they wouldn't be respoonsible for having posted the images, but they should (sounds like did?) take responsibility for removing them from their site once alerted.

That doesnt' stop the individual wholesaler from continuing to post them elsewhere, unfortunately.
