Getty Images Letter Forum / Adlife Marketing & Communications ASKING $8,000 for an image
« on: October 04, 2016, 12:46:31 AM »
i have posted this as a reply in the topic above but i wanted to shed more attention to Adlife Marketing & Communications and the scam that is showing up everywhere in the past month or so.
i have just received a letter as well asking for 8,000. is this a real concern or not? please help folks im new to this area and have no where else to turn. i attached the notice.
1- how can they prove its their own image in the first place....? i tineeyed it and it seems the links to original stock images are being removed so im guessing this scam agency is now buying rights to some images and making everyone who use them a target.
2- how likely is it for them to file suit in another state?
3- they are saying if you dont pay in 10 days we will press charges, should i just ignore it? i have received scam notices before but this seems a little scary to be honest.
please help me, i have no where else to turn to or ask about these things. a lawyer is too expensive and i dont want to make the matter big.
