Houston we have a problem

[squeak]

Not sure if anyone was aware of this but you want to start safeguarding your fakes. I was ebaying this evening and cam across this
Click me!

I am not sure if anyone knows about this and if you are ok with this or not but i feel you should know pwople are profiting from your work.
This is Echo's fake which can be seen and compared to here Echo's Fake

I just felt that you should all be aware of this and mybe you might want to contact the seller Echo.

P.S I didn't quite know where i should put this so if it is in the wrong place can an admin please put it in the right place thank you =)

Looking at the enlarged version of the pictute being offered as an ebay auction, you can see the areas in the top right and bottom left have been corrected with a clone tool to remove Echo's watermark and the model's name, as were present on the original.

If this were being offered by Echo directly then I'm sure he could have removed these layers himself with much less "mess".

I'd be surprised if this were not a fake and a rip-off...

WTF?!?


Thanks mate


Some daft twat's bid on it as well


This'll probably have come from OTBF (my first to make it on there ).

Easily corrected. I just turn off the "Echo" and "Lacey Turner" layers.

Would take me longer to start up Photoshop than do this

There's a simple answer to this!Report it to Ebay!I'll email the little twat if you like!

Well i just thought you should be aware
Also i have my own site and it's funny how all this came about. I wanted to ask you Echo if i can use that pic on my iste. I didn't want to put it up without permission

Had to go out.

The worst part of this is that he/she's profiting by fraudulently claiming the product to be genuine, which it is not.

People are either buying crappy printouts or are going to get bugger all.

Needless to say, I am dealing with this matter as I do not want my name associated with this activity.
