Can a vent a little?...
This isn't a huge deal, but it's really irritated me. I ran across an ad on craigslist from a nigerian breeder in WA. They basically copied an ad of mine. And now are doing their own "annual kid giveaway." I ran across this ad and am pretty irritated. I had a problem with them in the past of copying a photo and putting it on their website without asking me when it clearly states on my website that everything is copy righted. I have also heard from someone else that this breeder copied her ad as well when she was trying to sell a goat.
I've emailed them about it, I think this is just plain rude...I hope i'm not overreacting, but seriously, who does that?...I work really hard on my ads!! :angry:
Here is the ad, everything in blue was copied from my ad...
