Today my friends and I found a person from Indonesia (our country) has been setting up a shop on facebook to sell BJDs. She claims to be dealers of Doll Family, DOD, Dollzone, HZBJD, and Asleep Eidolon. >.> Here are some links to her fb account : http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=147628368621395&set=a.147627318621500.39829.100001226991695 http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos...68621395_100001226991695_259495_5870395_n.jpg http://www.facebook.com/Everlast.Fortunately?sk=wall She doesn't have any BJD nor her ownership photo of any kind of BJD. She took and posted photos from the companies, copy pasted every details/descriptions straight from the company websites, and mark up the values/prices by hundreds of dollars. =A= She has been stalking people from Indonesia to offer these BJDs at very inflated prices... and she clearly doesn't even know about BJD. She refers to them as "dollfie" and even stated one of Asleep Eidolon's DORA as "Miku doll" (the photo shows an AE Dora in a Miku cosplay wig + outfit from a Chinese Taobao shop - FM Anime - I think the representative here is Venus?). She clearly used and stole that photo for this purpose. No permission has been granted from FM Anime NOR Asleep Eidolon. And I'm pretty sure all the other companies don't know about her as well... since the prices are clearly NOT the original prices. >.> I'm afraid that she'd take people's money for her own profit if she's permitted to continue her acts, but I don't know how to stop her or how to let others know that she's not an original dealer. Do you have any advice? Can we post this somewhere on DoA? >.> Sadly, most of her "customers" are not from this forum, nor can they find this forum to research about BJDs before putting their money in her hands... >.< I have reported her facebook account using the REPORT button... but I don't know if it's useful enough. We have reported this fb account to Dollzone, FM-Anime, HZBJD, and Asleep Eidolon. We have received a reply from one AE representative. Will be posted here soon. Thank you for reading this... o_o Any advice would be greatly appreciated. ^^
I saw this, they stole pictures, I reported her fb already, but I'm still confusing about the other Indonesian who doesn't have any DoA account... are Wiki articles help? but most of Indonesian doesn't even read those (_ _)~ I hope I have another solution of this >_<;;;
I have see this. How can she take advantage since she NOT have a right to have that? She even prided himself that she is a Dealer. SHE IS NOT !!! I can't wait to hear response from companies about this. We already hear response from AE, though. and right. She's NOT a damn dealer !! I hope we can displacing him ASAP.
Hopefully all the companies the person is "representing" puts a warning on their sites about this person. Also did you give them the link to the person's profile? A person in FB could change their name all they want but that link is still going to be the same no matter what. FB FAQ about copy infringement [EDIT] apparently you can't report infringement unless it's your property... So all the companies you recognize need to send the forms to FB themselves. Still gonna report as fake profile impersonating public figure... D: Probably a good idea to send them a copy of this or tell them to get a FB so they could report it. :\ IP infringement form for non-copyrighted> http://www.facebook.com/legal/copyright.php?noncopyright_notice=1 DMCA notice for copyrighted> http://www.facebook.com/legal/copyright.php?copyright_notice=1 http://www.facebook.com/legal/copyright.php
Although the info page just says they're an agent of Doll Family and none of the other companies. I only saw DoD through their interests. :O still looks like they're selling Dollzone though... so it'd be a good idea to keep reporting to the companies you think the person may be impersonating reps >_>
We have only received words from AE representatives, saying that they don't know this person, and AE doesn't have any dealer in South East Asia... >.> They are even worried that this person is selling bootlegged copies/recasts because some of the photos she took are from Taobao agents. =A= As we all know, there are recasts being sold on Taobao. We can't judge from the prices alone, for all I know she could be selling fakes with the inflated prices because the "customers" on her facebook are clearly non bjd owners (and don't know how to distinguish fakes from real ones).
I got the other proof. this's the "Miku" that she sell : http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=147695288614703&set=a.147695238614708.39862.100001226991695 and this's the ORIGINAL from Fm-anime : http://www.fm-anime.com/bjd-13-vocaloid-hatsune-miku-format-cosplay-outfit-set-p-2455.html
I am Venus who manage FM-Anime. I am sadly to hear that bad news. and thanks for people who mail me to let me know the copier. Because Miku cosplay photos..I took for 2 days...and also need make the headphone..to cut the hair... Everybody , support us... We will do the best for you^^ If any questions, welcome to mail me^^
I have received words from Venus that this person is no dealer of FM-Anime or has any affiliation to FM-Anime at all. >.> She stole the pictures for sure. I hope facebook would soon close down the account because there are some customers who already send her their money! =A=
The companies need to send DMCA notices or else FB will do nothing about the fake account. FB needs to know that the person is messing with copyright or they won't do anything. The only time they'll shut down an account is for underage or copyright infringement with reporting by the company
Is there any reply from Dollzone, HZ BJD or Asleep Eidolon? Looks like she sold cosplay or figurine before she starts selling bjd, so many of her customers don't even know about bjd. Some people already placed orders and paid down payment...
We have replies from Dollzone, HZBJD and Asleep Eidolon. All stated clearly that they don't know this person and they're taking time to inspect her facebook and file claims to facebook... >.> We don't know how long it will take, whether they will only send warnings to her, or straight claims to facebook... >.< Even FM-Anime's reply on her wall has been removed... =A= We have done the best we can, now it's up to the companies to safe the customers from her! For people in Indonesia, please warn your friends via facebook~ Thank you... (_ _)
Yeah, sadly... there are people there who I think have sent her some down payments for the "Miku doll"... =.= She even stated that the Miku complete doll will arrive 3 weeks after order date. That is a big lie. >.> If she really orders from Asleep Eidolon it will arrive more than a month later with face up! It doesn't include the time to order and make the wig and outfit as well... And how about the shoes? =_= Dang... How can people be so stupid to believe someone like that? =A=
Okay, this dishonest shop wrote this on one of their contact's wall on FB, while that contact ask for cheaper price for the "Hatsune Miku Dollfie". I translate it from Bahasa Indonesia to English, since they wrote in Bahasa Indonesia. I do think this online shop steals all images & writings from "Doll'sSinging" [jeeryama]. Here's proof of her copy-paste ability: http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/2091/fakeosbjd2.jpg http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/534/fakeosbjd1.jpg She doesn't know what is BJD and yet she keeps call AE Dora as Hatsune Miku Dollfie, which totally wrong, since it's Venus' AE Dora [Merci] that cosplayed as Hatsune Miku.
Yes, every words she used, its just a copy pasted from jeeryama on Ebay, I have seen this last night... every single words is a copy pasted even the marks... =A=''' Agree with Vienni, she has that ability, stealing someone's work and have a totally wrong, misleading words, and I wonder if she knows about what is her doing... =A=''''
even worse, now she selling bjd outfits. (_ _lll) I don't know she steal from where, but I believe, it's stealing stuff, again. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=100001226991695&aid=40483
It's from jeeryama, Doll's Singing on ebay, I found it last night... its even worse, all the photo are uploaded its around 22 photos she uploaded... =A=''' Don't worry, Fransyung nee-san already reported this ^^b
This is my copy paste of email-reply from Mint On Card as US and internasional -AE official dealer: We spoke with AE this morning, they said that this person is not an official dealer, they do not have any official dealers in South East Asia. If this person is selling a 2nd hand doll that is fine, but it is not ok for her to tell people that she is an agent for Asleep Eidolon as it is not true. If she is selling a lot of AE dolls, and claiming they are new, then I would worry about them being re-casts. There is no way to know if they are legitimate dolls because she is not an authorized dealer. - Lindsey Jim Chan asked me again whether this shop has their sales page or such but I said to him that No. If you want to put any comment or such, you have to add it. I suggested him and AE to report the shop to FB like other companies. Think most Indonesian people have DA. So I guess, we can start to write some warning about this facebook store in our DA there. Seems like she's targeting bjd-gullible people (So, yes...not just newbie but really-really a zero knowledge about BJD. Perhaps only heard but never do their search on internet about it...well, I was one of them but thankgoodness I met MoC before her...I might be a victim as well. So that's why I'm very-very concern about this)... I wish FB can work faster but i guess in the meanwhile, we can't just give up and do nothing. After watching her activities in her facebook, I'm afraid that this person has her ability to sell a fake one. It is just perhaps, she hasn't found a person/company who can make a fake, yet but with her attitude that is money-oriented, I'm afraid she'll find one someday and sell it. BJD owners in Indonesia are not many. I don't want BJD hobby to be like exclusive or whatsoever, yet, I don't want it to be a 'cheap'-disrespective kind of hobby. I'm a hand-crafter so, yeah, I highly appreciate things like 'handmade'.
Stupid seller. Now she says she can get us a Black Luke / Black Ducan? Is she crazy or what? The dolls must be recasts/copies/fakes!!! Black Ducan and Black Luke are one of a kind from Dream of Doll... This seller is getting funnier and funnier. (__ __)
"Be honest"?! What brass! If all of the pictures are stolen, she probably doesn't have anything at all, not even recasts, just a scam from beginning to end. As far as I am aware, a FB page can be set up using entirely fictional info. So, they set up a fake FB identity, find and post someone else's photos of expensive items, collect money from innocent dupes, string them along until they've got a bunch of money, then disappear and start all over again.
That's what we're all afraid of. Last night a DoA member tried to make her confess and she did. She confessed that she's new to the BJD hobby and that she's not a real dealer, just someone who happens to know where to get these BJDs. But can you believe that she said YES when someone jokingly asked for a Black Luke?! =A= Also, she said she doesn't know who jeeryama is, when some of her descriptions are CLEARLY copy-pasted from jeeryama's shop on Ebay (Doll's Singing) including the "if you win this bid..." sentence... LOL.
That's because she was confronted by some BJD owners last night and she doesn't want others to see the stupid comments she made. We screen-capped everything she said tho. She won't be able to hide them. Even so, people who are buying from her can see them clearly before they're removed. Hopefully more BJD owners would get added into her friends list (she clearly cannot realize who's a BJD owner and who isn't) and they can break her fb from inside out.
I'd try that but I take tons of pictures of my dolls on FB XD just be careful of that as she can report harassment if the same people keep bugging her :\ still hoping the companies are sending DMCA as that is the only way the profile can be closed
Harassment because she's a liar? We have reported her like... 100 times already and not once can she report us back because she can't. We're speaking the truth and she's speaking lies. We only asked her simple things about BJDs and she answered with stupid things, clearly is in no state to be a doll shop owner. And she's charging waaaaaaaaaaay to much.
I aggred. look, she replying to my message. and she say, SHE CAN order WS Luke for me !!!! what a laugh. where the hell you can find WS Luke in this world ???? LOL LOL LOLLLL
She set her facebook shop to private after we confronted her, but she didn't removed her friendship with one of our friends. I dunno how stupid is she, but if she tried to make an order of BLACK LUKE there are two possibilities, she tried to run with customer money or she sells fakes or recast. That's right, we are speaking the truth, and she speaking lies, a dishonest of her... its stated clearly that she copying from jeeryama's shop, and when I see it, she charges a way too much even maybe if I counted near 25%-75% of the item prices... its a way too much.
WOW REALLY!? now I wondering XD if she gonna runs with money or she sells recast or fake, both of it already sounds like a crime for me... Black Luke and White Skin Luke looks like she's joking to us, OOAK Black Luke and none existing White Skin Luke??? LOLOLOLOL~
Ugh she made me want to pull her hair (yes.. her hair). I wish i could befriended her on my FB just to find out her next moves, but I've put warning about her FB on mine, so she would find out that I'm one of the BJD owners who are onto her schemes. *sighs*
she's actually accidentally opened her way of selling which is wrote it officially how the way she ripped of customers she got offended with me XD she told me she only got 12% profit but the way she sold heise's outfit she sold it for usd 230 i think even buying straight away from heise's official agent with ems shipping only cost like usd 170 ish she can't even count 12% dude lol
Just a warning to people that are remaining friends with this person. If you have any photos on your facebook of your dolls, you're opening yourselves up to this person using your photos to market!
