My car pictures

Post by Nickyboy » Sun Aug 05, 2012 8:56 am

As pointed out to me in a PM from a member on here a company called broombroom.com are using pictures of my car to advertise their potential S4 on PH. I am just wondering if this is allowed?

They buyer will be pretty pissed if he turns up and it isn't yours. Get intouch with the Company and tell them you are going to report them for (ha ha can't think of the term used) incorrect advertising

They even have the cheek to put their logo on your photos but then say QUOTE Photos shown may be Library Images for illustration only. We do our best to ensure all information shown is up to date and accurate, Email them and tell them your not happy and ask them to remove them.Unfortunatley thats the pitfalls of uploading photos on the internet.
