Someone has nicked my video!
« on: April 18, 2013, 02:33:08 pm »
Hi all,

I got the following anonymous e-mail last night...



I went to their site http://www.as-if-by-magic.org.uk and sure enough there I am cleaning my mother's front door! I am actually a bit flattered they thought my video was good enough to nick but am also a little peeved they didn't ask me if they could use it!

There is no way they will affect my business as we are in differing parts of the country so...

What would you do?

Cheers,

John

I'd make him take it down. End of the day it belongs to you. Microsoft wouldn't let you use their software for free.

Its for this reason that I try on my photos to also feature my van or my advertising board in the photo to stop it being stolen.

You can get yourself into a lot of trouble doing that as some on here have found out

They're from my neck of the woods. Do you want me to have a quiet word?
