A very upset customer here. I'm a co-founder of The Ocean State Ghostbusters franchise, and about 4-5 years ago we used katarra8 to assemble our patches. The design was one that I made myself in Photoshop and took several hours to design and it was my baby in the franchise. We had Katara8 make the patches, we were over the moon, they looked great. Today we found this..

a Instagram group/post with another franchise with our logo, but slightly edited with different colors, and removed the work "HOPE" from the top of the anchor and replaced with "KC"
You can see in the comments of the post, that the KC member tells me that Katara8 offered the design with the tweaks, and doesn't seem to care it's stolen from us. I messaged Katara8 about this, no response yet, but this is a VERY Shitty thing to do to your customers. Stealing their design and breaking their trust/ This is unacceptable
Here's our logo we we used since 2015/2016 to current
