Threats to gallery template thiefs
Yo
I have people stealing my gallery templates and using them for themselves.. also people stealing my TGP design as well. Here's my gallery: http://www.click4teens.com/cgf/09-13-2003/index.html The offenders: http://www.shiningballs.com/cgf10/k.html http://www.pussyvid.com/00112/pussy342.html The first guy even stole my content as well. These idiots were sending hits to my own custom Cute Girlfriend tour for a while, but now they're starting to change it to their own ARS codes. What I'm asking is.. does anyone have a good email to send to thiefs like this threatening legal action? I figure an email to them, their host and their sponsor would likely stop them from using it without any "real" action, so I'm really only looking for a good email to use for now. Don't really want to take the time and money to get a lawyer involved just to write a threatening email. If anyone would be able to let me use something like that that they have, I'd be most grateful ![]() Thank you!

I just realized something.. the one guy is sending to my cute-girlfriend.info custom tour still, and the other guy I had thought changed to his own code however he's actually using the code with my account # still.. all he did was copy the join link from the last tour page and use that. These guys are not too bright ![]()

Legal documents can not be copyrighted. It would be fine if you used one that someone else received. The only problem is most are created to fit a certain situation. Though generic ones like C&D and NDA's you should be ok.

people used to steal my shit all time from chatrooms
i'd make a simple page that took maybe 5 minutes to make, but instead of people spending 5 minutes of thier own time to be original, they steal my shit then go after the same traffic source and then I get pages that I made sent to me as email spam, and when I contact the fucker to knock it off, they say "what? I made that page" yeah busted you fucking cocksucker.... I wont say his name but his initials are T.R. I've even caught people stealing my pages because the idiot left my counter code on the page. And he runs an affiliate program now. I would say the name but it would just come out as "Hahahahaha" that shit still pisses me off ![]()

This happens to me all the time, usually the only time I find out is when I find sales from domains that don't belong to me.
I had a bad situation last month with a theif doing that to me with my gallery design and he inserted CP in as content. He even left my linking code in there. So when the FBI came to ccbill to talk to them about it they shut down my account for 3-4 days. I had to get on the horn with ccbill and convince them that the domain wasn't mine and this sort of thing with gallery theft happens alot. Thank god Corvette knows me and assured the powers that be that the domain most certainly wasn't mind and I was totally on the up and up. It was a real eye opener to me plus I lost 3-4 days of sales plus rebills. Really fucking pissed me off! DH P.S. If you guys want to start a movement to start hunting these crooks down just sign me up, I will image source the living shit out of these fuckers until they stop. |

I find all the people who jack my shit submitting my stolen templates to my own tgp. Maybe some kind of "honeypot" idea with a fake TGP could be developed to find these people?

Let me tell you all what I would do if I were in your shoes.
I won't give you any legal advice because I'm not licensed to practice law. But if it were me I'd do something similar to what I lay out below. I indeed might want to send a Cease and Desist to put the alleged thief on notice. However this serves no legal purpose that I know of. Practically I might threaten a lawsuit in order to scare him into stopping. However, if what I really want is for him to stop, I'd simply send a DMCA notice to his ISP or host; stating that my copyrighted material at THAT URL is being used without my permission and that they (the ISP) must take it down. I can find legal information about the DMCA at http://www.loc.gov/copyright/legislation/dmca.pdf -- specifically see the summary in paragraph 2 on page 12; and more specifically the bullet points laid out at the actual congressional act at http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/...hrllgY:e57376: section 512.5.b.3. (if this URL fails, go to http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/...:H.R.2281.ENR: then click on SEC. 202. LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT. ) -- and finally review Latham and Watkin's alert put out here http://www.lw.com/resource/Publications/_pdf/pub331.pdf , page 4, right column, entitled "Proper written notification...". This DMCA notice should be effective or give me legal grounds to hold the ISP responsible for the tortious actions of the user in addition to holding the user responsible. And the ISP is likely to have deeper and more convenient pockets making a meritful legal case worth the effort.. I also might go to www.chillingeffects.com and look around and find http://www.chillingeffects.org/fanfi...gi?NoticeID=7. That's what i'd do. But you should figure out what you want to do after reading up on the law and/or talking w/ an attorney. I also might want to consider the quote "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" and question my assumption that a template in and of itself is copyrightable, and that I have taken the proper steps to assert and/or register my copyright rights as a creator of a work. mlv |

these people only want your galleries to get listed on TGPs - then they just redirect traffic.
they leave your codes because they dont care about signups. all they want is to redirect traffic (to dialers and what not) |

1. **I** did not copy your gallery. 2. My girlfriend received permission from the company that owned the gallery (Kim Holland Cash) to use the design as a template. You may have designed it, but the client that purchased it owns the rights to it and gave her permission to use it. EDIT: by the way, she changed 99% of it before it ever went live. You saw a few left over lines of code and started crying "cheater". Little did you know that about that time I'd just made a partnership agreement with Al Fore (ampland.com, al4a.com). Kim Holland is good friends with them. Don't believe me? Ask John Scarpa, one of Al Fore's partners. He'll verify that Kim Holland Cash gave permission to use the design. But since you threw such a hissy fit she took it down and did a complete redesign. And I decide to pay others like Fletch XXX to create future galleries. Or do them myself. |
