Hey guys, I’m posting yet another warning to not buy from Teechip. This ad has been floating around Facebook, and I’ve gotten messages from concerned fans every day this week. I’m so grateful to every one of them; you guys really have my back in this fight! I’ve sent Teechip multiple DMCA takedown notices, but their response so far has been to ignore them and advertise harder. If you see this add anywhere, PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS STOLEN FAN ART, AND DO NOT BUY FROM TEECHIP! I’ve already written extensively about this experience, but just to reiterate: 

  • Teechip steals fan art to print on cheap products
  • Teechip sells this fan art in false ‘limited time’ sales that are actually there for as long as they want
  • Teechip mass advertises on Facebook
  • Teechip’s twitter, @Teechipofficial, is 50% replying to angry fan artists who’ve had their art stolen
  • The other 50% is replying to customers angry about missing orders
  • Probably a huge scam anyway; do not buy into it

I’ve finally e-mailed Teechip’s host website, Amazon.com, with another DMCA takedown notice. Amazon has been much better about getting my stolen fanart removed in the past, so my fingers are crossed for a positive response on that soon!
