Is it illegal to take pictures from facebook and say they are yours?
So I have a Facebook page and I upload edits of TV shows and movies and stuff. I put my page name on it. Anyway, someone came and saved all my pictures, cropped my name out, put them up on their FB and claimed that they made them. They're not claiming that they are those people (I'm pretty sure that's illegal) just that they made the photos. Well anyway I contacted the person and they said sorry and gave me credit for all the pictures, but anyway, I was wondering if this is legal?? Like, could someone get into any serious trouble for doing this?
Okay, but like what do you mean?? As in, getting-banned-from-facebook trouble or police-trouble?
