That's a clear statement of your copyright so no doubt there. I had a punter use one of my shots uncredited on his FBook page. When I commented on this he deleted the whole post and scurried away. That commercial companies are willing to engage in this is nothing new though, even it is a tad surprising in its brazenness. A stiff letter, or email, is deffo mertied methinks.
