Recently, my digital camera was used without my consent to upload pictures of my minor son onto another users account. her name was **(edited by administrator) I asked her three times to remove the pictures with no response. I tried searching the facebook site to email facebook administration, but there is no link in the site to do so. The only thing I could find was copywrite@facebook.com. I emailed this address but it was return to sender. Facebook should be more responsible and have someone to manage complaints of users and otherwise. Facebook claims to be a safe site but makes no efforts to keep users safe. It is outrageous!

Hi Becky;
But, if what you say is true, they should definitely have an email address or some contact form more easily accessible. Not just for problems with pictures, but also for support issues or site suggestions.
I hate trying to figure out who and how to contact when I need help with an issue...

I'm not sure Facebook can remove the photos unless they are offensive. If the picture is pornographic, for example, and somebody reports the photo then it can be taken down.
The only thing I can think of is to ask your son or the girl to remove the photos and then never let your child have access to your camera.

All the believers, they were smiling and winking at each other, I could honestly say I was scared for my life.
While the 'hard part' may be 'proving' that the photos were used without permission and that this poster owns the rights to those pictures... then it is easy enough to take them down as I can't imagine that facebook DOESN'T have a 'copywrite infringement' section to their TOS that would not allow people to post pictures that they don't have a right to.
If the child is over 18, then they may not be able to do anything as the kid could say that since the picture is of him that he wants it there.... but as I'm guessing the kid is a minor, the parent has full right over that picture.
Try these:
abuse@facebook.com
privacy@facebook.com
Facebook is a very large site and it is impossible to control the upload of photos that are not offensive. It is not facebook's fault someone did something wrong to you. It is like the people who unfortunately fall for phishing scams to get facebook information and then mess with your account. The site is not directly responsible and they do try to fix these problems.
The first is the recommended e-mail for offensive or inappropriate photos or content. They would be my first approach. The second would be the privacy because they are there to explain the policies and would know what route to go to get the content banned (considering the picture is of a minor below the age of 13 (I assume)).
I hope this gets taken care.
Think about it...

Maybe I'm missing something. How does having a picture of your son posted on the internet make it dangerous?

I am a little confused. How did someone used your camera to download pictures of your son to Facebook? I really don't think it has anything to do with Facebook but with whom ever downloaded the pictures of your son. You should just talk to the person who took your camera without your consent and fix the issue with her.
