A friend pass this on to me a week or so ago.

http://www.allfreepics.info/30921.html

Not our content, Not being used to promote us in any way, but our name and at the bottom a lot of our text that we have written and other have written about us, and I found it on more then one “page”. I imagine he is also doing the same to a lot of other people as well.

I wrote the email provided at the bottom this email

I would like you to either remove all reference to KatVixen on your site/sites or sign up to our affiliate program and link to our site directly. This is our trademark and we will do what it takes to protect it.

And today I received this as a reply

Good day,
i've done tm search on uspto.gov and i found nothing Kat Vixen related,
in what country do you have trademarked Kat Vixen?
***

So I gave this guy a chance, I have forwarded this all to my attorney and he will see what, if anything we can do. Of course the “whois” is all bogus so I will be reporting this to ICANN as well and I will be looking over his “sites” and if I find any sponsors I will be contacting them as well.
