Wow, you really are Batman... I get home from Bowling tonight, and all the investigative work has been done. Good job everyone, Kudos... I'm sure some of those people would like to know what their photos are being used for... So Justin, where ya at, I want to hear this rebuttal. Oh wait, I bet you'll turn this one around and claim they have stolen your photos...LOL... can anyone say Cease and Desist letter??? Best of luck...

Oh and seeing as how a fake med student might not know what a Cease and Desist letter looks like, here ya go

And if you guys hear back from those on photobucket, and the photos are indeed stolen, forward them that link. Have them print it up accordingly, with the correct info put in, have it notarized, then send it as a certified letter. This way they are covered if legal action is necessary.

A very big thank you to Rachelsne and Village Idiot for letting me know that nine of my India pictures had been used without permission.

The pictures were posted to my Flickr account in December 2007 with all copyrights reserved. Many of my pictures have a Creative Commons attribute, noncommercial, no derivative works license but not the India pictures. Justin Nguyen, Justin83, has neither asked for permission nor received permission to use the images in any form.

To Justin, I'll take your posting of my pictures as a form of flattery. The lack of proper photo attribution is a mistake. The claim of photo credit shows poor judgment. And your watermark on my pictures is copyright infringement and illegal. Please remove my pictures from your site. I would suggest that you remove all pictures that you did not personally take and have permission to use.

Photographers are passionate about their work. It shows in the amount of responses to this forum post and the work to find the real photographers. Ive found a new home for my photographic discussions!

Thanks guys!

Glenn, thanks for posting and verifying for the thread.. just incase there were some who were giving justin the benefit of the doubt... to justin... you lucked out with Glenn that he is more flattered than pissed off.. if you stole the wrong images, and have pissed someone off, you could be sued big time...

Quick update.

Justin and I have traded several emails this evening. His emails have been sincere and I believe it was a mistake he is willing to correct. I have given him permission to place the photographs on his e9u.com site if he will not alter the images, provide proper photo credit and a link to the original image on Flickr.

Glenn,

It is your call. After I did some research on the stuff related to his site, his previous sites and the way he sell stuff on other forum and on the net, I would rather have nothing to do with him.

By the way, Welcome to this wonderful forum!!!

Well not from us.

It seems e9u.com is down and hopefully it will remain so, although I'm sure he'll surface elsewhere with a new name and another dodgy idea. For his sake I hope it's a better one, Kyser Soze he's not.

At this point I must say I feel particularly proud to be part of this community. We didn't exactly change the world but exposing a two bit scammer for sh*ts and giggles is a pretty cool thing.

Now if you'd all like to join me in a rousing chorus of "It's all gone quiet over there". 1, 2, 3...

After reading all the stuff about Justin which is all over the web, I'd have to agree with Dao. However, seeing as how Justin was just using these photos as part of a scam, I don't see how he'd have much use for them if he actually had to give credit.

Anyway, on a lighter note, great photos Glen. I took a class on Modern India last term and I am dying to get over there to see the Taj Mahal. You have a great set of photos :hail: Well hope you find the board interesting and I must say, this thread was fun. Special thanks to Batman, great job with the research. Now it's time for a beer. Well it's like 8 am here so perhaps later its time for a beer....

chrisburke · Sep 19, 2008

wow Glenn, you are a far nicer person than I... justin was using your pictures as part of a scam... if it were me, I'd have the images taken down altogether.

Dao · Sep 19, 2008

It seems like Justin just sold his domain names to someone else.

Also, if you search for his email address, you will even found more stuff. In here, he said he is in debt, on the other hand, he post some messages in other site saying he can help other students if they need cash. Basically he said if someone need cash, he can charge the person's credit card and then send the cash to that person.
