Thank you all for your comments and support! While I did not derive any financial gain from this little cartoon, I wouldn't mind paying a one-off to the artist.

Thank you all for your comments and support! While I did not derive any financial gain from this little cartoon, I wouldn't mind paying a one-off to the artist. However, this looks like a scam, or a way to get me to admit guilt. So here's what I plan to do: 1. remove the image and add a static "removed by request of rights holder" 2. ask for a written copy of the rights to the specific image, including where it was posted, who drew it, who owns the rights, and how did this company arrive at the price 3. I still think this is some sort of a cam, as there's no individual identified, and the address is a corporate address in Seattle (which could just be a drop point). Thanks all!!
