An affiliate is using my friends pictures in an ad on Plenty Off Fish

[DanielLambert]

My friend recently found out that his pictures are being used on Plenty off Fish for some date a solider ad and he wants to get them removed/sue them for money. What's the best way to go about this?

take a screenshot, find a lawyer & contact affiliate nework with affiliate id #.

You can also contact someone at PoF and have them remove the advertisement.

First of all - have a proof of everything.

Yup, save the graphic & the URL and send it to ben@pof.com. We can remove it from the website & alert the approval team to decline it going forward.

LOL I like to use photos of my ex's. That'll teach em to act like a bitch!

HAHAHAHAH

But seriously I don't think your friend is going to make any substantial financial gain out of suing. Get the ads denied/taken off and move on to other things.

So you don't want your friend to get some action? Some friend you are.

It isn't a fake profile, it's an ad being used to promote a dating site and his the one who wants it gone.

Yea POF can just have that image auto-declined, no reason to call a lawyer.

he obviously wants to extort money while he's at it.

me thinks the op wants a cut of it

screenshot, take it to POF. They will take it from there.
Take note of the website they use as well, if it is their own website, do a whois take note of any information you can before they got alert and change it.

I doubt he'll get any money out of it.

This literally happens every day.

Does this friend happen to be aesthetically pleasing?

It's funny you ask this here. If you're serious about this, you ought to ask a lawyer, not affiliates on Wickedfire - the same place where those who lie, copy and steal all the time, hang out.
