Lots of stuff from shutterstock, some of mine.

He just copied all my keywords, and I use my name in my keywords.  Easy to find him that way.

Fairplay:
OMG almost 50000 files, we should investigate CB collection for other thieves. They don't review images, once approved as contributor everybody can upload anything.

Jo Ann Snover:
Once again, multiple files with different original authors on SS - although the tag line "I am the best photographer" is a clue that the person isn't :)

I know Sandra Cunningham (last photo) so I'll let her know, but if anyone knows any of the other copyright owners, have them contact Colourbox (although they clearly are not at all careful about their content) .

Photodune Reject:
When I attempt to login on that site my browser is telling me it isn't safe! I probably should listen to my browser!

cathyslife:
Microstock is basically the wild wild west now. Anybody can upload anything, even if they arent the copyright holder. What do the agencies care? It just increases their chance for a sale, and they are ONLY interested in money. Just one more industry ruined by greed.
