Getty Images Letter Forum / Just ignore them
« on: January 11, 2014, 08:21:26 AM »
I began receiving the Getty letters about 4.5 years ago. Within a few days, the photo in question was taken down, but this didn't stop the letters. They came about every 3 months. After about 1.5 years, the letters from McCormack started, also about every 3 months. I read what I could online and the one thing that seemed comforting is that no one had ever been dragged into court. I suspect when it has happened, it was of a more serious nature, failure to remove the photos, larger abuse, giving Getty and McCormack ammunition against them, etc.

Anyway, after about 3 years went by, I read of a statute of limitations that this coincides with, all the letters stopped.

If you are just an honest person that was duped, of failed by a web designer, simply remove the violate photos ASAP, and leave it alone. Do not answer Getty or McCormack. Don't write them, don't call them, don't e-mail them. Don't communicate with them in any way. Apparently if you do, they will dig in and never let go. They will have found in you "a live one"!

Read the letters if you will, then drop them in the circular file. Don't be swayed by their bluff and bluster. If you like jousting with clowns and want to engage in unnecessary legal expense, and find satisfaction in arguing with people like McCormack, then Matthew and his associates are here to help you fulfill your calling, and there's nothing wrong with that if you can afford it. But if you are like most people, and this makes you sick to your stomach and you agonize over these letters, the solution is simple. Ignore them! Whatever you do, never initiate contact with Getty or McCormack, and see what happens after about 3 years.
