This happens a lot. I vaguely remember Gaile saying to email these examples to them and they take any necessary steps where they can.

Thanks for the report. I sent a link to this thread so we can look into it.
I am sure I recognize that bear, too.

Those facebook games sure love to rip off actual games. I remember a tank game that used in game screen shots from a very popular tank game. Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery I guess? Lazy knock off devs
It’s probably unlikely/not worth it anet goes off on these guys, but this sort of stuff enrages me. Stealing art is not ok, I would sue the pants off those people.
These kinds of games always rip off artwork. I had an add once for a facebook game that was using screenshots from Smite. It’s a pretty scum practice.
Update: Apparently they’re now using screenshots from ESO! Or that’s what I’ve been told. I, of course, only play gw2. Ahem.
