Anyone else have a huge problem with this?

And with them complying with DMCA requests?

It's not them.

They're usually the ones who find the pics/profiles and ask me to get rid of 'em.

Thank your lucky stars that I'm not one of them. I film real escorts across the UK for my site http://www.lukey.com. My competitor is fully compliant with USC and DMCA, but I know he sometimes uses porn stars and fobs them off as escorts.

yup I tried to get Love Gisele to come over from a escort craigslist ad but it wasn't her at all

idtapdat · 06-08-2009, 06:44 AM

lol thats always been a problem sending the girl that you see

Juilan · 06-08-2009, 03:25 PM

This is always been comedy during the Las Vegas xbiz show, you walk down the strip anywhere and are handed escort cards with Selena Spice or Katie Fey on them and there phone numbers in Vegas for outcall!

But as far as DCMA, I have had to email and phone certain sites re photos I shot and they have so far taken them down immediately when met with sound and fury.

Please introduce me to your sound and fury methods.

I've tried the nice & professional route as well as the "listen here you stupid fuck" route after 8-9 DMCA's.

so how big was this girl?

None of our girls are escorts. Let the record stand.

And our content is in-house, fyi.

These are real pimps not geeks behind a computer, you gotta use what they understand best.

This has been going on a long time...I've seen print ads years ago with porn models' pics claiming to be the girl. Once they sign the release...

I came across that once a few months ago. I can't even remember the sites name but the girl in question definitely wasn't working for them, and they had no right to use the picture. I just found it funny someone would think they could get away with that.

MichaelP · 06-09-2009, 09:02 AM

So wrong. I've seen many flyers handed out in Vegas with Aria's (Giovanni) picture...

pornlaw · 06-09-2009, 09:08 AM

Always remember that if someone is using your pic of a model for an escort site, you have a claim --- but the model has even a stronger claim.

If you are going to push this beyond a DMCA and if you havent registered your photos with the US Copyright Office prior to the infringement, you have little to no damages.

However, the model still has a solid right publicity and false light claim and whether she signed a model release doesnt matter.

Something to think about....

TurboAngel · 06-09-2009, 09:11 AM

That sucks but i'm sure it sucks worse for the guy who thinks that what he's getting.

About the first part, if he published them on the net earlier than that site in question, I would think he has satisfied the definition of prior use copyright.

On the second point, totally agree, a tort claim could be bigger and scarier.

I just told her to wait a second.. ran to my PC and printed of a life size picture of Gisele's face and told the ugly skank to tape it to her forehead.. But when I blew a load in her face her makeup/ink ran and i had to kick her to the curb

Its not use that gets your statutory damages, it registration. Without prior registration you will be left with actual damages. For taking a single pic for an escort site actual damages will be difficult to prove.

However, a model may have an easier time with damages and attorneys fees.
