There seem to be a lot of websites that just aggregate escort ads.  If you google a phone number from a backpage ad, you'll find multiple versions of the same ad on other sites.  I think this is just done to generate web ad revenue (by getting people to go to the sites from searches).

Where was your original ad?

Hi can anyone provide me with any kind of legal advice of what I can do about a site that has stole an add of me and posting it on their site? I sent 2 emails asking them to remove my info because I never authorized them to post ads of me, nor am I a member of their site.

Here is the site/ad? Anyone else have a problem with them??

1. Email [email protected] to request they remove your photos.
2. If they don't reply, follow-up with a second request stating you'll file a DMCA, if they don't remove your photos.

Here's some info on DMCA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Millennium_Copyright_Act

I really appreciate the info and advice.  The ad has been removed and I have had communication with the owner of he site.  

Thank the both of you.

Hi,  
   
 I recently googled my email address and found a lot of postings on other sites that I never gave permission to. I also had never heard of them.  One of them was the Tommy.  I am glad you were able to get this resolved, it gives me hope.  I will keep after him until I get this rectified.    
   
 Thank you for sharing this information.
