If you use Photobucket or Myspace, please read!

I got this from a friend of mine.

There is a site that exists that has a program that goes around "STEALING" pictures from forums and photobucket and myspaces etc...
It can not steal if your PB or Myspace is private.. BUT if you post a picture on a public forum, your pictures can be stolen as it is considered unspoken permission!! (I don't think it can steal from this site as you have to be a registered member?)
This site and program are MEANT to gather FREE PORN , but steals anything it can grab. The site ends up posting EVERYTHING it gathers. including YOUR pictures of YOUR children and family.
PLEASE take some time and either, delete your Photobucket (which will deleted all posted pictures) and create a new PRIVATE PB..

I'm sorry I know this will take along of your time... but I want to see ALL of your babies Safe and Secure!

**Edited** I've taken out the link to the website but if Wobbles or SC want it, I can pm it to you. x

PB, is that photobucket?? I make all my albums private, better check though. Facebook is private too and only my friends can look at it.

I have thought about this before, sick sick people in this world. Is it better to have a section on this forum just for photos where you have to be a member and can only access it once you've posted, e.g. over 100 posts?

I have photos on this forum, can they be accessed by the general public without being a member?

could that be because people are using a link on this site to get to it? I dont know, just a thought

Can Wobbles and SC ask for their site to be removed? There is a link there that makes that an option.

 

[xKimx]

yer i noticed that too

 

[lady3]

I don't know either. Another forum that I'm on noticed a lot of their pictures on the website and the mod from it contacted the site to have it banned. Since then all of the pictures seem to have been taken down, so maybe Wobbles or SC can?

 

[Grimbo]

Oh no! I didnt know about that. I have just opened a new Photobucket account and uploaded a load of photo's. I dont know if I made them private? better check now!

If someone PM's me the link I can ban their website by IP address so they cant access anything on BnB (including pictures).

BTW for those that dont know, the photo gallery is a members only forum (no guests have access), but will ban the IP address for any photos that get posted elsewhere on the forum.

Urgh scary!!

 

[thelilbump]

Scary! that's what puts me off posting photos on here and such like, my facebook is all private so they shouldn't be able to access it like that. It's a horrible thought people stealing your pics!

 

[StirCrazy]

my facebook is all private so they shouldn't be able to access it like that.

BnB's Photo Gallery is private too.

I've heard of this before. Not this site though but a well known company that used someones photo in an advert on the side of bus shelters. The woman couldn't belive that she was plastered all over London.

I'm off to pb now.
