First off, this isn't a dodgy spam message!
I'm contacting as many people as I can find
to let them know this jackass on eBay is
selling their pictures. Here's a link to the
auction involving yours.
If enough of us complain to eBay, the seller
and Flickr we might actually be able to do
something about it. Someone calls him on it
in the feedback section, and he claims
outright the pictures are his alone. I'm
horrified this is happening to a set I worked
hard on, especially since I took them out of
total love for the band and not profit. Like
I said, I'm contacting as many fellow victims
as I can find - hopefully with enough voices
we can stop this!

Just an update - it would seem the user has
been disabled by eBay. It's probably worth
keeping an eye on still, just in case it's
just a temporary thing or they're planning on
re-registering under a different name.

The same has happened to me with my set of photos from a Gogol Bordello gig.
This is the auction: cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem& rd=1&ite...
The set is here (linking right to the picture used in the auction): www.flickr.com/photos/geshmally/2399830332/in /set-7215760...
