Need help. Someone is using my image to sell his damaged Z

axmea? · 06-09-2016, 07:06 PM

Thanks to JC-Nimso for calling this to my attention. Some guy named Vince is using the image of my Z without my endorsement. On the onset it would appear that my car is for sale in FL and as you look at more shots it is another Z. I get the stock photo usage but he has no permission to use it so he can sell his Z. I have sent him a text but he has ignored.

I have a huge favor to ask --- Barrage the $h!t out of this guy named Vince and text him "Hey Vince -- You do not permission to use a buddy's photo of his Pearl White Nismo to sell your damaged Z. Take it off and put up the real thing."

Thanks all. It will be much appreciated.

Send Craigslist a notice to have it taken down or forced to remove the picture due to not having consent and the misrepresentation of the vehicle in the ad as well as the fact it is not a stock picture from Nissan.

damn making other people named 'Vince' look bad....

Watermark all your photos. Will make stealing them more difficult.

Years ago, someone on ebay decided to not only steal my pics but use my host to link them. I quickly changed my listing to reflect new links and changed the stolen links to images very adult in nature. Then reported his listing.

My brother had a orange supra with a bomex kit 10 years ago,
