Ugh..
So, recently (on facebook) i had my fursona name, artwork and character stolen and used by some un-imaginitive kid as thier own fursona (under the name zakari tiger furry), also stealing plenty of other artwork belonging to friends and claiming it as him and his bf - THEN, telling me and others over DM that its HIS... I reported this to facebook along with many of you, only to find that all they have done is block me from seeing any trace of his profile and any post involving him (for example) Kiyo has posted something about him on his own page, i FAIL to see this post at all.... nice.
Now maybe this is all part of the investigation process, but it hadly puts your users's minds to rest with no info about whats happenging, knowing that someone is running around as your character claiming it as his own and doing god-only-knows-what with huh <<
I can deal with stolen art, i can deal with stolen names but srs... name, pictures and THEN telling ME that i should back off? Hahaha - oh man...
Just letting you know this account is NOT me so plz don't add, my real facebook is linked on my main page ^^

If you want to check if you've accidently blocked him (or if facebook did it for you) go to
Account>> Privacy settings>> Block list (at the bottom of the page).
Its a terrible situation though, I've had people post pictures of my ref sheet and fursuit saying "This is the fursuit they hope to commission one day" Its like no ... thats not how it works, thats an EXISTING fursuit, its just immature and pathetic. Facebook sadly take so long to deal with any request it takes them 5 weeks to even respond to anything. Good luck with it though!
Damn fakers
Since I don't have you on facebook, I reported him as not representing a real person.
Seems like it worked, nice one :3
It'd be hilarious to run into this idiot at a convention in the future. That would be an interesting interaction. Especially if said impostor shows up in what you know will be a shit attempt home-made replica suit of yours. Be sure someone's filming if that encounter ever takes place.
I'm sure this is his first encounter of 'furry' and has just typed tiger into google and copied the first thing he saw - not smart - but i guess harmless enough if you a young dumb kid eh?
Its just the fact i FOUND HIM OUT and then he still told me where to go xD
I have tried reporting him, but it seems I will have to add him as a friend to see what the hell he is up to...
Could be at eurofurence, no?
Yeah, fb is crap and recently I'm fed up with it more and more.
Here in Brazil we joke a lot about Paraguayans because in the border (Brazil - Paraguay) they sell loads of cheap and low quality Chinese products, most of them fake or contrabanded
Anyways reported X3
(when you get 40 furs to kick it up the arse )
Bless you all
