Manx Coins
According to Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com)
Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors. are just one of the many dishonest gold & coin dealers worldwide who commit copyright theft by using our copyright images without our permission.
On many of their pages, and we reproduce one, http://www.goldcoinsgain.com/isle-of-man-gold-coins.html, here, they are clearly using our images of gold coins from almost every country in the world.
We reproduce below their "Manx Coins" which is repeated on most of their pages.

What's Wrong?
-
First, and most obvious. Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors have taken and used our copyright images without our consent or prior knowledge. This is a clear breach of our Intellectual Property Rights. We call it image theft, and it is dishonest. It is also unprofessional.
If the company is an important well established gold bullion dealer and investment advisor, then surely it could afford to take its own photographs, buy them from an image library, or commission them from a professional photographer. Instead it appear to have chosen to steal our pictures. Apart from exposing them as cheapskates, it is unfair competition.
- "GoldCoinsGain.com is Aurum Advisors online resource for gold coin and gold bullion acquisition. Nowhere else will you find such easily accessible information on just about every physical gold topic under the sun..." This is untrue, we have this facility, and so do a number of other coin and bullion dealers, and in any case about 90% of their site content appears to have been lifted from ours..
- Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors expect their customers to trust them with the storage of high value assets, yet they cannot be trusted not to steal images.
- ©2008 Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors. Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors have not only used our copyright images, but are claiming ownership of the copyright of them.
- We suspect they may try to pass off the copyright infringements as the fault of their website designers. but Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) owned by Aurum Advisors should be responsible for the actions of their agents.
- At a very quick count, we found 58 pages on the Gold Coins Gain (GoldCoinsGain.Com) website which contained our photographs, but we are still searching their site for any further infringements.
