Illegal use of my (and other photographers) work. Copyright issues.
-
Hi,
A site you host is using my work (and others) without permission. They are also pretending to be a professional photographer using other people’s work, which is dangerous to potential models as these sort of accounts are often predatory in nature.
As I cannot contact them through their site as it makes me log into wordpress.com I need you to help remove my work from their site immediately. I have tried to contact them previously. I would suggest the removal of the entire site as I also recognise others work on there.
Help appreciated,

It looks like they have been removed from 500px but are still on wordpress.com

Hello there,
Ok, so this can be reported here for review: https://wordpress.com/abuse/
I hope this helps.

Thanks! The worst part about it is they have used a really bad filter on it! It’s an affront to my eyes!

Hi there,
Please make sure you submit a valid DMCA takedown notice as explained here:

In this case the Abuse form is not the best place to report this, as it’s not simply a violation of our internal policies, but a matter governed by a legal process.
