Stealing Photos
Posted by Angie La on June 23, 2012 at 7:49 pmI just wanted to open a discussion about stealing photos from other dancers. This is absolutely unacceptable and really creepy! There is a user who stole a photo and used it as their own on facebook. I can not even begin to explain the feeling I felt when I first saw this…
Here is a link:

The link didn't work for me but imagine if you saw someone else with your own photo! How creepy would that be!?
-
I wonder why the link would not work… It was a screen shot of my picture with the person's name who stole it.
The user is called Joely Monttero. I could upload it to studioneena…?

Wait was it your picture that was stolen?? I kind of feel your pain, since one time I met a guy at a bus stop who found me on Facebook and shared my profile picture on his profile. So damn creepy!
-
Yes it is me in the picture. Instead of "sharing" the photo, this user downloaded it and reuploaded it as their own. They claim they live in Budapst put the comments are all in Spanish. But that is no matter–I live in Germany and speak English. The sickening part is how one of the comments asks if it is their house (meaning in the picture). https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif

How did you find out? Have you reported her yet?And I had the same happen to me on smootther social network..and the chick tried to holla at my brother! How freaking creepy.
-
How terrible! I hope you've reported whoever stole your photo. You should update your privacy settings so people you don't know don't go around looking at your photos or sharing them.

Thank you. I will check again… Facebook is run by such jerks and keep changing the settings and the privacy issues change as well. I did report this user and contacted them personally just before i blocked them. I also commented on the picture which I am not sure you can read in the screenshot.

I updated my privacy settings but I see no option to keep people from sharing my photos…

@Jojodanza, I saw it in my news feed. The person is a mutual friend of someone who is actually my friend. I was posted that the user uploaded new pictures and that is where I found ME. And someone asking, in spanish, if the photo was taken at their house. I wanna barf thinking about it…
I also let my friend know about it in case she wasn't aware that this user is a freaking wack job. It is 3:30 in the morning here so I don't think she will get the message for a few hours.

Photo privacy settings can be changed at the individual album, not privacy settings. They changed that too…

I deleted mine for a while and my famiily was upset since we live in Germany now. Then I had pole friends who were not a part of Studioveena and said it was easier to keep up with facebook. So, I started a pole facebook especially so that I would not be tagged in any pole photos for my mom and grandma to see. I will be tightening down the action on my facebook but they keep making it increasingly hard with all of their new and improvd changes. It is a great way to keep in touch and to network, but there are creepy idiots who have no backbone and want to steal someone elses identity.
So I think when this happens it is my duty as a human to pass along the info… no? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cop.gif

Annieloo, I still don't see that option… Its late here and I have to go to bed–I'll check again tomorrow.
And, thanks for the responses!!!

I'm sorry but anyone can steal and use your pic for what they want…trust me i know first hand. I have ask that guy and his ''charity'' to stop using my pic because i don't want anything to do with him. We even complain to FB and they don't care. He left it there with my many messages to take it down. Only thing you can do is know that anything you will put on FB (or YT) can easily be stolen https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
