Asking a Favor

This site has posted my picture of the super hots without my permission. I have contacted and asked that it be removed but get no response. Click on "hottest Pepper List" Does anyone know him? Or if you agree this is wrong please let him know so. Thanks
John

I don't know him, but here is the message I sent him on the contact us link on his site:

You are displaying a stolen picture taken by my friend johnf on your website buynagaviper.com/hottest-pepper-list. Please cease and desist immediately or further legal action may result.
 
Go there now and it takes you to a "weightlossforidiots" web site.

If the guy doesn't respond and remove your pics I say we storm the place and burn it to the ground! Yeah!

Good luck JohnF
 
He is doing something odd with redirects but it's still there

If the info is false or he outright refuses to remove the image, contact his Registration Service Provider to complain about copyright infringement. They are providing his website hosting service so they can bring the hammer down on him. Most service providers take copyright infringement seriously. Here's their info:

johnf isn't it the person you're looking for? None of us have images on his site that don't belong to him.

Please, please tell me you're not trying to drum up some customers for Ecommerce. I feel dirty.
 
John, posted this on the other site. Thought I'd save you the trouble of re-posting here:


Thinking about it today, I thought I'd check out the "Buy these seeds at Crazy Hot Seeds!" link.

Turns out that site is owned by:

Jason Scott
1252 Enterprise
Jacksonville, Florida 89563
United States

Who curiously has the same email contact, aar6on67@gmail.com, as Aaron Grissom.

If I was a suspicious person... I'd think they are one and the same person using fake names / addresses when registering their sites. I could be wrong but if it looks like a duck...
His buynagaviper.com "blogging" site obviously isn't working for him as a store front, can't seem to find where he's actually selling anything. Funny that if I allow scripts to run in my browser, like most people, you get redirected to weight loss junk. Looks like he opened a web store front under crazyhotseeds.com.

You may want to contact them via the the crazyhotseeds.com site as well.

Just saying ;-)

---> Follow up:

OK John, I gotta get a life ;-))

Just for fun I started poking around looking for references to crazyhotseeds.com and came across a young lady in NY who lists crazyhotseeds.com under her contact info on Facebook.
If you don't get any response from Aaron Grissom or Jason Scott or who ever they are now from Florida, you can try contacting him/her via http://facebook.com/jessicatcollins.

Just like falling down the rabbit hole, curiouser and curiouser.
 
Thanks all it looks like your help has worked and the picture is down. This is what he/she posted on the site:



@John Fiedler- quit being a lil b**ch. Stop spamming the nice pepper forums out there. Today is the first day you have emailed me. You can stop your silly smear campaign.


( it was not the first day I mailed and the forum won't let me quote one word)
 
Funny, "smear campaign" with one email? Wow! Well the pic is down, and he/she is pissed. Mission accomplished.
 
I think the "smear campaign" being refferred to is my posting of the asking a favor on several forums I belong to and people from those forums sending him emails. Power to the People!
