Yes... I'm seeing you everywhere too. I don't know why, but these "Get ripped fast" ads are popping up everywhere all of a sudden. Glad you're aware of it.

Wait...Hold the F*** Up
your saying that you didn't take that stuff, and most likely it doesn't work? Then I just wasted like $300+...I knew I should have stopped once they offered their payment plan cause all they needed was my SSN to set up payments...oh well I'll put up a log when I get the stuff in
all jokes aside...thats fu*ked up your pic for everyone to see while they scam others...worst thing is I just know its some little asian teen sitting in his basement on a Mac in Japan or China

Every photo you take is copywrited to an extent. Theres a big difference with a news paper stealing a photo for news purposes compared to a private company stealing a photo for profit. If he gets good lawyer and the defending party does not comply, there could be quite a bit of cash floating OP's way.

Dude I hate those effing companies. Such a scam.
At the bottom of the page in the terms in conditions it says:
Quote:

This webpage is an advertisement. This page is a fictious demonstration of what an individual who uses the advertised products could potentially experience. Results are not typical, and will vary.
|
They didn't even spell fictitious right.
Also in the terms and conditions it says that if you order the free trial you are automatically registered as a member of their club and they charge you 80 dollars a month

PaulGetsRipped.com -- LOL
I see their ad all the time when playing games on my iPhone.
There's an AMAZING picture of a super vascular ultra buff guy on the ad. Luckily, the site is now down, and the first thing on google search for it is SCAM and this thread. Good bye, crap!
Somehow they are still paying for ads though. Jeez.

Your pic is on the left and right column on this site.
http://www.postchronicle.com/news/breakingnews/
Looks like the scumbag switched the url to point to "paul gettingripped.com".
Hope you give them hell Craned.

Correct me if I'm wrong.. but I THINK you have no rights to them after you post the pictures on the internet...
I remember something from Oprah where a company went on vacation and saw their picture being used in an advertisement... but since it was posted on facebook, they couldn't pursue legal actions.

facebook has it in their 'user agreement' that they can use your pics IIRC

You are mistaken. Copyright law still applies here. The legal path might be a bumpy one, specially if him or the photographer didn't register the photographs, where this douche is hosting the site from, special provisions for 'art works' in the digital photographs category in the country, what international treaties have to say about it, etc. etc - it can get complicated (probably why most individuals give up).. but most of the time, you can't just take someone's photograph and re-distribute it as your own.
This one is a similar story I saw a while ago .. extraordinarymommy.com/blog/are-you-kidding-me/stolen-picture/ (although in this case, some think the photographer sold the photo)
