  • Does anyone recognize this photo?



    I saw it in an ad on another site, but I'm almost sure I've seen it on here before

    I see that add on Myspace all the time. I wonder what diet it is trying to advertise.

      Must not be a good diet if they have to steel pictures from people on the Atkins diet.

        Thats what I was thinking - but I'm almost sure I've seen the photos on here before.

          I don't recognize the photos, but as someone who has "been there and done that", I know that there is nothing they can do about it. My before/after pics have been stolen and appeared on several sites. I have a top-notch attorney working on it, but so far, nothing... they are very crafty, and know just when to disappear and cover their tracks well.

          These were some of my stolen pics:

            Mitzi - that's really disgusting. Not your piccies - they're not disgusting - you look great!!!! But the fact that they can so blatantly steal them like that, and get away with it. Still, in its way, I suppose it is a compliment to your success!

                  Mitzi, the sad thing is results like yours *are* possible, sustainable and real, but what they are selling is snake-oil, and won't address the real problems.

                  It's sad, because someone will see those pics and be filled with (false) hope, when in reality, there is a way...

                    Yes! On a couple of the sites, there were places were people could make comments. There were so many on there, expressing hope that they had finally found something that would work. I left a comment, explaining the fraud, and the whole ad disappeared. That's when I got a little wiser, and stopped leaving comments on the ads, so they wouldn't disappear. However, it is still very difficult to nail these guys...

                        I've seen them on here before but can't remember which post it was. It's in the picture area and fairly old.

                        So ridiculous that these companies steal pictures because they don't have any REAL success stories for the drugs they're putting off on us!

                          I am by no means technical but I do know there is a way to stop pictures being taken, the admins have to disable right click somehow...like I say I don't know how to do it but I do know it can be done. might be worth thinking about don't you think?

                            i had my picture stolen and didnt even know it. it was just my face, but one day my friend sent me a yahoo account page of someone using my picture on a fake account, saying their name was 'ashley' (which my name isnt) and all the stereotypical fake profile 'walk on the beach' crap. i wrote them and said i'd have my attourney on their butt by the end of the day if it wasn't taken down. it was taken down
