ATTENTION! PLEASE FAV THIS OR AT LEAST LINK TO THIS AS THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE WHICH AFFECTS MANY DEVIANTART-MEMBERS! FULL VIEW FOR ALL THE DETAILSA lot of you already read the newsarticles about the websites "art4love.com" and "markyourspot.com", which stole artworks of a lot of deviantART members and tried to sell them on said websites for not little money.
I, too, read those articles and shook my head as to this kind of fraud and scam, but i never had thought that i would find myself among the victims.
Then a few days ago,
comment on my deviation "PWND", that it, too,
had been offered for sale without my knowledge and against my will on said websites.
Upon further investigation, i found two more ow my pieces (for a total of three pieces) that had been taken from my deviantART gallery and been offered for sale on said websites, namely:
"PWND"
[link]"Behind Enemy Lines"
[link]and
"Wild Wild Chess"
[link]Both websites are now DOWN, but there still is a gallery of screenshots available here
[link] for you to checkm if your artwork or that of your friends has been stolen as well.
deviantART Senior Member Alexiuss

I mean, this just... hurts.
And on top of that, that guy wants to run for governor of ny in 2014 ¬_¬
But i really appreciate your comment =3
I think, roaring so loud that it can be heardis probably the single, best thing to do here
btw: heres a website about the fraud, including a list of victims [link]
(lol, should i go "look mom, i´m on TV!" now...? xD )
As i stated in the comments: someone is trying to put together a Class Action Lawsuit against this dude, Chad Love Lieberman (google him),as he ripped off over 180 artists in this way! Over 2000 stolen works...
I hope it will be succesful, but for now, all we / i can do is to spread the word...
Thanks again for the kind words
And thank you, too, for spreading the word!
I will see if there is just a little EXTRA i can do to spread the word.
I feel very sorry for every artist that this... *CENSORED*... took artworks from!
But you get brownie points for being so kind and writing me a few nice words and giing a hug
By the way, did you know that Chad Lieberman also has plans to candidate for Governor of NY in 2014 ...?
And its a bitter, BITTER irony, that the name "Lieberman" can be read as something like: "Kind Man" or "Nice Guy" in german.
One more reason to spread the word...
