    Who is it?? What if one of us has used her!?

  • Re: I am fuming!!!!!

    I don't think she comes on here, if I get no joy I will N&S but I will give them the chance to remove them. Will still contact Trading Standards as they are not her work.

    that's awful!!!!

    hopefully you have some luck with getting your pics of the site!! some people are so rude!

  • Re: I am fuming!!!!!

    That is disgusting!

    I feel sorry for any brides that may have used her. Her work may not be up too the standard she is advertising.

    I hope that she has the decency to remove the pictures that are not hers and apologise (although doubt you will get that), and that you don't have to take up any of your time going further.

    A photographer I know had his whole website reproduced by a West Coast American....all his text and images....He was not happy. Detect who is hosting their website and complain to them. That will get the site taken offline pretty damn quick.....

    Hey Sherrie,

    Over the last 3 years I have had this a few times,  in fact I have been given some good advice from these forums on how to deal with it.  But the best advice was to send a letter like this to their registered offices:

    Dear Sirs 

    It has come to our attention that you are displaying our copyright material on your website. 

    (your company name)  asserts that the photographs you display are ours, and feature our designs. 
    You are, by displaying them, attempting to gain a commercial advantage from work that is not your own and infringing our copyright. 

    We contacted you via email on [insert date] and requested that you remove the material from your site. We have not received the courtesy of a reply to that email. We enclose herewith a copy of that correspondence, and print outs of your website, displaying our copyright material at [insert date]. 

    You are respectfully asked to remove the material from your website within 14 working days. If, after that period of time it has not been removed, we will be consulting our solicitors. 

    Yours sincerely

     

     

    Send the letter 'Special Delivery'.  Also send a copy of the letter to the web-host and notify them that this infringement is taking place on their server.  This has worked for me more than once.  Sometimes the owner of the company has no idea where their so-called web designer has unearthed these images from.   You will get the registered address of the web-host from Nominet.  

    A customer of mine who specializes in internet related copyright infringement gave me the above letter as a template.  He also told me that people who steal images are by their nature cheapskates and likely to remove the images as soon as they receive your letter.

    If after the 14 days you have had no reply you can send a letter to Google inc. they can remove them from search results and will completely finish their business.  But this is a last resort that can be legally complicated and possibly costly to everyone. 

    If you need any help let me know.

    Marc

    Thanks Marc that is great advice.

    I have now spoken to another supplier who makes Tiaras & 90% of this person's Tiaras that she is claiming to make are hers! She has basically taken images from everyones website to make a site of her own. There are 3 suppliers that we have managed to trace & are all actively trying to contact the offender. We have the origiinal images and also one of the suppliers even has one of the Tiaras in her cupboard!

  • Re: I am fuming!!!!!

    So she has been caught red handed in effect and still denying it!? How ruude!

    I think you should still raise this with Trading Standards, what if she just goes round and takes more of other peoples sites now to replace the ones she has had to take down!?
