stolen picture on ebay...UPDATE

[Katy]

It was brought to my attention that someone, nutty_sewer is using one of my blue wyandotte pictures in his auction. What a low-life. I have it posted on BYC so it's someone who is either a member here or just likes to steal pictures.

I can't remember who it was but someone had the very same problem a couple weeks ago.

Katy, aren't your pics water-marked?

 

[bockbock2008]

Here it is.

Contact ebay and have the remove it. Post in her ad under questions that she stole your pic, people who bid will see it. This is fraud!

That's a picture from before I stated watermarking them.

Ok, I've said this before, but it's now Ebay's policy to use any picture that is uploaded as a stock photo, watermarked or not. You have to go under your account setting to change this. Good luck getting anything accomplished with Ebay.

Hopefully if you ask the seller to remove your picture, they will honor your wishes.

I wish people would respect others enough to ASK and state why they are wanting to use a pic. But I agree. Lowlife.

He has been using it for awhile. And I'm contacting all the people who bought his eggs.

Found these that may help back up your story in case the seller wants proof.
