ATTN! Pirating/stealing work AGAIN!

What's the best way to contact Meghan Mullens re: copyright violations? re: diecuts_mart on Instagram

They are stealing her designs as well as some from Flergs & a number of designers from other stores. This one literally has the same name & preview... Why are people so terrible?

[Kimberly27]

So sick. I used to be a designer and hated when this happen. Some people just don't care. Grrr!

[KingsQueen82]

Grrr.. how brazen of them! Do they really think no one would notice?

[3BluEyedBabi]

You can report it on instagram...not sure what that will do, though. What would you suggest marking it as?? Fraud? I will report it, too.

[Kiana]

I've shared in the SSD Staff FB group we have ... I didn't know it was MM too, so I will tag them

You can but to report copyright violation- the owner of the copyright has to report it. Now the account is showing as private & my request to follow hasnt been approved! Lol

That's awful!

That stinks.... the page doesn't appear to be active anymore, but they'll probably just pop up somewhere else with a different name. In a group for creative makers I'm in, a woman had her photos of an Easter project stolen and used on multiple sites by scammers - but in a twist of karma, it brought a whole lot of interest to her Etsy shop when people googled the actual owner of the designs, and she sold a LOT.

[tanyiadeskins]

I just don't understand people, I could not handle the thought of that karma coming after me one day. Shameful.

[StacyLynn]

Oh my goodness.... I just don't understand why people steal..

That link above did not work, but when I typed in the name the account came right up.

Today she's taken all those previews I commented on down- there were at least 2 that were Flergs, 2 that were Meghan Mullens & a good number of designers from The Digital Press. Hopefully she'll realize that is ILLEGAL & discontinue stealing...

I hope so too!!!!

[Leablahblah]

Ugh! So sickening! I'm sure these people know down right that what they are doing is illegal.

[Scrap-therapy]

That sucks! I always wonder how people could have good conscious with stolen works from other and sold it plus the illegal side!
Hope you'll manage to stop this person!
