I hope you are reporting possible infringements to the original artist or agency.  It doesn't do much good to simply post links in a forum.  The only one who can take action on an infringement is the original artist who can send a DMCA notice to the agency.

@leaf   I reported about these scam accounts to iStock prior to posting here.
@filo    I sent you PM.

How'd you notice this guy with only 16 images on IS?
Could not pass by the images stolen from Mark Evans.

MegaPixel's portfolio has been removed lately from iStock.
It is still there on Thinkstock though:

Yeah, it can take a while to get things on - or off - TS.
BTW, if you knew MP's port had been removed from iS, there wasn't any question of 'infringement of exclusivity'.


Not necessarily.... there could be lots of different possible explanations of this phenomenon, but the facts remain the same:
On 2013 someone started to upload series of images very similar to another particular existing exclusive portfolio.
Actually, every single image he/she uploaded appears to be very similar to the same IS exclusive portfolio both in terms of style, objects and post-processing technics.
On 2014 all these images suddenly disappeared from iStock.
But he/she continued to upload this stuff to all other agencies.

Every single image on this SS portfolio looks like "inspired" from the same IS exclusive portfolio.
