Art and Copyright Issues

General
I was surfing around FA and found one thing that really disturbed me; from one person in particular. I won't mention names but suffice it to say I'm appalled. It's one thing to draw fanart, even copy character's and modify them, call them your own, as long as YOU GIVE CREDIT! This person however.... Literally took the exact character, one of my beloved character's from a game I love and had the gall to simply smack on a few accessories, rename him, and call him HER OWN. Her own words :he belongs to me!!!! COPYRIGHT:
.......
Now I'm not bashing people who take other peoples races and make a character within the peramiters, or even drawing the exact character, SO LONG as credit is given. For someone who makes what little money I do off of my art, I am sickened and outrightly angry that someone has the nerve to do such a thing, and on top of that, is taking commissions to what I suspect (not certain but suspect) are tracings of other peoples' works. I just...... I can't fathom someone doing this....
Sorry for the rant; this is something that's really got me steamed.

I saw a similar wolf to mine uploaded a couple days ago when I was viewing recent art. The only similarity was green hair. Nothing else.
I hope things get worked out. It's pretty stupid when someone does that
