Copyright Theft
Perhaps we should be flattered by the number of people including dealers who continually infringe our IP (Intellectual Property) rights by using our copyright images and blatantly copying our text, word for word in some cases such as this one, but we do not find it amusing, and will take legal action against any copyright thieves.
elementum-deutschland.de
elementum-deutschland is just one of the many coin dealers, bloggers & websites worldwide who commit copyright theft by using our copyright images without our permission. On their webpage they are clearly using our Degussa 250 Gram Gold Bar Reverse photograph.
We can’t find our photo on the elementum-deutschland (dot) de website now, so presumably they have removed it, but this Pinterest page provides evidence that it was sourced from there. It’s one of our older photos of gold bars (our newer ones tend to be better),
What’s Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic coin and gold bar images on the internet. We strongly object when lazy and dishonest people decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, doing so in competition with us. It is always possible, even likely, that sellers who steal photographs do not own a similar item, and have the intention to totally defraud potential buyers.
