Stolen fanart, designs and scams

SPREAD THE WORD FAR AND WIDE!

Originally posted by angels_trap at Stolen fanart, designs and scams

It happened with previous #AKF campaigns, it happened to campaigns of other celebrities and it's happening again (thanks FB users for the banner).
The website TeeChip.com is nothing but a scam.









There is also a certain FB page that steals fanart and designs from all over the internet and then creates "24 hour only campaigns" using these designs and Jensen's name.




Do NOT buy ANYTHING from any of these!
If you like the promoted designs go and find the originals!
Current #AKF campaign shirts can be bought only HERE.



I've checked out the Jensen Fan site on FB and clearly many of the 60k people who've liked the page think it's really Jensen (though why he'd post mannips of himself IDK). Anyhow, both of these sites are despicable.

Good good, that's all we can do. I tried posting on Jared's page in the hope that he might see it and repost, that will reach more people than any of us can do.

seems like Jared is already spreading the word about the scam as well.

Yes! I posted on his page along with a few other people and he saw it! Hopefully that will get the word round far faster than we can.

That's such a vile thing to do, to cash in on a campaign that was set up in good faith and for a good cause. And to use Jensen's name is awful - he should sue them for misrepresenting him!

There's a mirror FB page in Jared's name too, I reckon it's the same people. Teechip told Jared they apologised and had taken the AKF shirt down after Jared was alerted to it but as someone pointed out, they've done it before for lots of different Represent campaigns so it's unlikely they are sincere in that apology!

Hopefully as the word travels round the likelihood of them getting away with doing it again fades....

I hope fans will take heed and only buy from Represent in future. It's appalling that they can cash in on campaigns so easily.

My sentiments exactly.
