p>You've been scammed. https://sortclient06.bravejournal.net/post/2022/10/02/Minecraft-Skins-Download-Install-On-Minecraft </p>

p>Someone stole your art and turned it into a non-fungible token without your consent. And now that same scammer has put those NFTs of the stolen artwork for sale, and is raking in the ill-gotten gains. This is a depressingly common event, and thankfully, you don't have to be completely unrepentant however getting your stolen artwork removed from the massive NFT exchanges like OpenSea? and Rarible isn't going to be an easy task.

/p>

p>Welcome to the other side of the much-hyped NFT coin where fake works and plagiarized artwork dominate the 2021 $44 billion market. This is so widespread that OpenSea? which is described as the "world’s largest and first NFT marketplace" has admitted in January 2022 that more than 80 percent of NFTs it had minted using its free minting tool were "plagiarized works, fake collections and spam."

/p>

p>Artists are aware of the less glamorous side of NFTs. https://site-9059250-691-6857.mystrikingly.com/blog/minecraft-mod-will-provide-you-with-all-the-stats Twitter accounts that expose NFTs of stolen artwork (like @NFTtheft) have thousands of followers and draw attention to this scam.

/p>

p>The @NFTtheft Twitter account is managed by an Bay Area artist who goes by the name of "bor." They said they prefer to remain anonymous because of the harassment directed at artists who are opposed to tokens that are not fungible.

/p>

p>"I would like to emphasize that plagiarism is an unsolvable issue in the NFT space, and will never go away. it," wrote bor. "As long as anyone can mint anything while remaining pseudonymous on an unregulated/decentralized technology, plagiarism is going to be a big problem."

/p>

p>It's a problem that marketplaces, where people can list, purchase and sell NFTs are aware of. They are often unable to take the necessary steps to address it. OpenSea? and Rarible (a competitor to OpenSea?) have established procedures for those who want to report stolen work. However, as the artists often point out that reporting NFTs isn't always easy.

/p>

p>Yet, many artists see it as their only option.

/p>

p>OpenSea?: How do you report a stolen NFT

/p>

p>Visit OpenSea?'s Help Center.

/p>

p>Click on the "How can you assist?" drop-down menu. Drop-down menu, choose "Intellectual Property Rights Takedown/Violation Request."

/p>

p> Enter your email address.

/p>

p> In the subject line In the subject line, write "fraudulent content."

/p>

p> In the "Description" section In the "Description" section, give as much detail as you can to demonstrate that an OpenSea? listing is simply your work that you've posted without permission (include hyperlinks). Define the images you've included (see Step 6).

/p>

p> Include screenshots under "Attachments" of both where your art is actually located online (presumably someone copied it prior to posting it on OpenSea?). Also include the NFT listings.

/p>

p> Hit "Submit."

/p>

p> Notably, OpenSea? does not guarantee any results or guarantee that the company will respond to you.

/p>

p>"When you submit a report our team will go through the information and determine if it's in violation of our Terms of Service. If so we will remove it," says the company's Help Center. The ticket will be closed once it has been solved. It is possible that you will not receive a response from us.

p>How to report a stolen NFT on Rarible

/p>

p>Like OpenSea?, Rarible has a process that allows users to submit reports of stolen art listed on its marketplace as NFTs available for sale. To report stolen artwork in the form of NFTs on Rarible:

/p>

p>Once you have located the NFT in question click the three dots in the upper-right corner.

/p>

p> Select the "Report" option.

/p>

p> Write down the claim that the work was stolen, and give as much detail as you can to prove your claim.

/p>

p> Click "Report".

/p>

p> Importantly, Rarible does not promise it will delist the NFT in the matter. Artists' frustration is understandable since the company doesn't promise to respond to them.

/p>

p>How to stop plagiarized NFTs from being plagiarized?

/p>

p>Although artists are able to report stolen NFTs directly on marketplaces that list them for sale, the issue of thieves making a profit from the work of illustrators, designers, musicians, and other creators isn't close to being solved. According to the artist who created the Twitter account @NFTtheft, the problem is systemic and will need an integrated solution.

/p>

p>"Scammers are stealing from YouTube?, Twitter, Instagram, Deviant Art, Artstation, and even Minecraft fan forums," wrote bor. "If it is able to be downloaded the scammers will try to take it. Artists are less in control of their work than they ever did before."

/p>

p>Indeed, a quick look at Twitter shows many artists who are stunned and say that someone else has taken their work and, with no' knowledge, minted and sold it as NFTs.

/p>

p>What other actions can people who are unwittingly being sucked into this sometimes fraudulent environment take, besides reporting NFTs plagiarized? If Bor is right Non-fungible token true believers won't be happy with the solution. https://brownlillelun.livejournal.com/profile </p>
