Ebay users are stealing my pictures and hosting. So AW is chargeing me. Same guy just did it about 10 times and another about 5 times.
Can I do anything about this? Report them or complain somewhere?

As I posted on another thread, if strangers can cause us to be billed for something we didn't use and it gets on our credit card, that is FRAUD.
I told my husband about this situation and he said:
"I agree that it is a problem. Auction Watch should take responsibility for
this if other people can get to the picture on Auction Watch and launch it
from there in their own auctions. I'm sure that complaints to the credit
card companies will produce a deluge of legal baggage to Auction Watch to
change their tune. Someone being able to charge anything to someone else's
card is fraud in the extreme and should be addressed."

Hi Xanex,
One recommendation would be if you have a graphics program, to add text at the bottom of your image that says "copyright yourusername", or something like that. This way if anyone tries to use your image, everyone will know that it doesn't belong to them.
