This is the second time that I have had my images stolen by another seller to use on their auction and gotten charged by AW for separate image hosting fees.......Last time I couldn't figure out (DUH!) how to find out who stole my images....Well, maybe I'm slow but.....I saw where I was getting charged separate hosting fee's again for 2 images....so within my account, I clicked on the item number to view the auction and imagine my surprise when it was not my auction!! Needless to say I emailed ebay and reported him along with sending him a nasty letter for being such a low life as to not do his own work!
I don't understand when I have an account with AW for my images....why isn't there some way for AW to block the uploading of my images (from my account) onto other auctions carrying a different selling ID from mine.......
Anyway thanks for letting me vent......Back to listing! I think my images will have text on them from now on with my ebay id on them.
I have to add though....I felt like I got the last laugh when this seller sold his same identical item for 19.99 and mine went for $62.00......so I guess thats a lesson for him...it doesn't pay to steal, at least in his case!

You would think that AW could stop this pretty easy.
I think the eBay username is in the auction page URL. AW's software could stop images going to eBay URLs that don't have the correct username in the URL.

REAMOND......I agree and wish AW would do something......having to constantly monitor my account for unjust charges is getting really old.....really fast....

Right, especially with the >very easy< method they have of asking for a refund on those stolen image hosting fees.
