    Lori....seems to be going around these days. One of my closest friends, a jewelry designer, had photos of her jewelry stolen from her site and posted on another so-called designer's site. Evidently, he stole content, INCLUDING A BIO word for word, from some 4 other designers. For the record, she sent a cease and desist along with copyright info like your friend, and he took her stuff down.
