those of you saying its fraud etc...how do u know if they are fraud?
definition of fraud here is someone who will take ur money and vanish.... how dou know these facebook groups do that?
there is nothing wrong in copying other designers, in fact all home based designers get their inspiration from the big designers like Hsy karma etc , so whats wrong wiht them doing it?
i do agree that each home based designer should put their own work up rather than anybody elses...but to allege fraud is taking it a bit far.
in regards to your last two paragraphs. no designer on GS puts up designer pics and claims it is their own work. it is always 'here is an outfit i made' or 'here is a copy i made'. these facebook groups that popping up everyday have pics from other homebased designers and claim it's their own work! even when questioned they say, 'yes! we made this outfit, this is our pic'. putting their logo on the pics and claiming they made it, copy or otherwise! that is deceitful and if that's not the beginning of defrauding someone, i don't know what is.
