Fake / Scam Ads scaring away prospective tenants?

[Chris Gilliland]

I have ran into a problem I did not anticipate. Someone has stolen the photos and description of my online ad and reposted it at a lower price with their contact info. I have flagged every ad I can find but they seem to put up a new one every day or so.

In the future, I will watermark all of my photos - I am thinking add a phone # to all of them? - But what can I do about the current ad when they have already copied the photos? What changes can I make to the current ad that would help?
