Paul R. Jones Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Question for fellow contributors...I found one of my images for large bales of alfalfa with SSs ID number below. I am unable to 'paste' a copy of the image to this message. Has anyone had their images 'stolen' and used under another photographers name and if so, how did you handle the issue? I have contacted SHUTTERSTOCK and PINTEREST with my issue. No reply yet.

Paul R. Jones Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 Beats me. I haven't experienced such a 'find,' and I am stumped about the circumstances. Your thought makes sense. When I see the image tied to the photographers name, I am concerned that something is terrible amiss! I've clicked the image I found to death and find nothing with my name as the Photographer. I hope other will reply. My thanks. Paul Link to post Share on other sites

Jones said: Has anyone had their images 'stolen' and used under another photographers name There was one resently from Kelly Ermis in the thread ‘How is your image being used’: “I am very new to stock photography and was able to find one of my photos a couple times, once on unesco where both me and shutterstock are credited. Another place I found it was on the republic of togo site: https://www.republicoftogo.com/Toutes-les-rubriques/Sante/Un-cluster-repere-en-zone-franche where they have added their own copyright. Is that allowed? I also thought you had to credit when using for editorial reasons? Thanks in advance for any insight.“ Link to post Share on other sites
