I recieved a bank statement today and found that some one on DA has used my visa card. How they have done this I have no idea, I dont even know what they have used it for because there is no record of me using it to purchase anything in my DA account, on this DA account or others that I have here, I didnt even get an email to notify me that it had been used either, so who ever it is has bypassed that system. so people please be aware that your card details can be accessed by some one else. My advice, DONT keep your card details on DA and checked your statements too to see that it hasnt happened to you. I shall be contacting my bank shortly and they will investgate where this has gone. I hope that DA will do the same and find out where and who has used this card and on what. I hope DA will do the right thing and refund this money asap. If not then my bank will take steps to get monies refunded back into my account and may take the matter further.
It may have not been that much but I actually feel violated that some one has hacked my account. I know that I can be a little ditzy at times and forget stuff but, but when it comes to money I am on the ball and have checked everything to make sure that I have not purchased anything on DA since May and it wasnt for that amount that has been taken. I am just wondering whether who ever it was is just testing the waters before they decided to take out a larger sum.
Just thought I would give you the heads up people so that you are aware that it has happened.

A greek Magazine has been using art from this site (DA) amongst others without the permission of the artist's.
I instantly recognised quite a few from DA on the covers of this art mag titled 'Strange'

I dont know what is being done about this but I know a few people who are not happy about this maybe you can help.

here is a link to the gallery of front covers over the past few months

You have to remember here that this is not just a website that has taken the art but a magazine who have put the art in print without permission or recognition of the artist's work.

If you reconise any works please let the artist know.

Thank you

P.S happy new year
