Hello Makerworld,
a person 1:1 copied my official design from Printables
The person even uses my profile picture and my company name.
I would not post this here, but since the person also uses my face this is completly out of hand!
I reported all designs and his profile. Please react accordingly and remove this account.

Hello Gnusmas75, yes we reported the designs, the profile and the avatar.
I hope Makerworld reacts accordingly on this.
wow - stolen your likeness and everything? i’d have thought it was really you. that’s terrible.
Yes, its a 1:1 copy of my printables profile.
The person even attends a design contest with one of the designs.
I just found out since I wanted to start upladoing my designs on Makerworld and then I saw that all of them are already there and even my face…
I hope @makerworld will react soon…
I also reported this user should be banned
Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it! 
Wow, that’s brutal. I reported it too and linked it back to this thread. I hope this gets resolved for you!
@Biocraftlab Once you can get them to take it down, you should create a profile and get it verified with makerworld, to stop that from happening again!
Thats a good idea tahnk you. I will do it as fast as possible!
I also connected now my printables.com profile to my correct Makerworld profile. I hope this will help Makerworld to see the printables account is my real account.
Thank you so much, that really helps!
Reported user and each model.
Highly appreciated thank you!
Not the first time I have seen someone clone a maker/designer from another site.
It’s truly astonishing how audacious some people can be. I had a similar issue with an Etsy seller. It was bad enough that he used my models without permission, but he didn’t even bother to print them out himself and create his own product photos. Instead, he used my images as well as pictures from the comments and published them.
Thanks to the Bambu community, I wouldn’t have discovered it myself, but I received a tip. Honest community members should act exactly like this: support each other and combat theft.
Yeah exactly 
I am glad to see this support from everyone, thank you so much.
The user has now removed all models and changes the username and profile image.
He is still running the account and uses one of my banner images.
Let’s see what Makerworld will respond to my requests on this account.
Thanks to everyone that supported me! 
It’d be extra sucky as it looks like they’ve kept the d/l’s and boosts etc. I’m amazed this sort of thing isn’t immediately torched, its criminal.
Makerworld Support told me they will suspend the account.
Nevertheless the account is still online and has a banner of my prints shown.
I uploaded to designs now to my profile.
If you are interested and would like to try them out, go ahead! 
Here is the official Biocraftlab profile:

Thanks again for your help.
Love this community!
