I have received a copyright claim over "No Monsters", and "Making of | Don't Feed the Freaks" from "[Merlin] DINASTIA MARKET INC SAS" on behalf of "Bad Blood Music"/"Fame 13" over the passed few days.
These people are scammers. They take copyright-free tracks, put them into the Youtube content ID system, and proceed to claim the videos that have used it.
In particular; they seem to have stolen a collection of Ross Bugden's older tracks. MOST of my Autodale films use Ross's music and are in danger.
I have managed to contact Ross about this and he is aware of the situation and plans to stop these people.
If this is sounding familiar to anyone it's because these scammers tried the EXACT same thing back in July 2021, but backed off when I disputed their claims. Now they're getting bolder, holding on to their false claims. If I fight any more it can lead to a copyright strike and the removal of my animations.
I'll keep you all posted on how it goes. What a nightmare.
