Amazon quick when threatened with copy right infringement!

Amazon actually emailed me the day I sent out my letter to their Legal Department. I received the following reply within a few hours…

Thank you for your message. Without any admission of wrongdoing, please be advised that we have removed the images noted in your message from Amazon.com. We trust that this will bring this matter to a close.

This letter is written without prejudice to any rights, remedies or defenses to which Amazon.com and its affiliates may be entitled, all of which are expressly reserved.

Sincerely,

Copyright/Trademark Agent

Not Sure, but I think they said “we admit to nothing but took it down to make you happy”

Now Amazon is stealing my pictures!!!

Ok, so as I was stewing over this first website stealing my images I went surfing to relieve my stress! Stupid!

Guess what??! Now I find my image work on AMAZON for cripes sakes! So I fire off an email to them. I sent it to customer service. They did reply right away with instructions to formally make a complaint of infringement of copyright material.

So off I went writing my formal letter to their Legal Department. We’ll see, I sent a copy to my Lawyer first just to be sure the language is right.

One day I’ll find myself a good lawyer in the States and sue the asses off these people! Anyone know of any good Lawyers?

Copyright Infringement

Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across a site using MY commercial Image work! Can you believe it? Why YES I can. I’m sure it’s been happening for years to the bigger fish. I now see how maddening it is.

I emailed them asking for them to either link to my site in recognition of my image work, or to remove the image from the site.

No reply

I had my lawyer send a cease and desist letter. Asking for action within 10 days…..still no reply

I’m in Canada, The offender is in the United States and wont acknowledge any communication! WTF!!!!!

Anyone know a good Copyright Lawyer in the big ol’ USA??? Help!
