Ok. Some minutes ago while I was browsing in google, I found out a website in Spain (the country where I live) is using-SELLING one of my photos without being downloaded or even paid.
This is my photo: https://stock.adobe.com/es/images/reflejos-de-la-casa-de-las-ciencias-sobre-el-rio-ebro/585910670
And this is the website that is selling my photo: https://vinilos-stica.es/fotomurales/585910670/tranquilidad/de-architecture-con-la-rioja-y-water-spa...
I have NO DOWNLOADS from that photo neither have received any cent from it. I just uploaded that photo some days ago. What should I do? Can Adobe contact that website? The fact that website is using images without consent or even paid for them, I think is a motive of fraud.

No apologies necessary. Many people don't realize the partnerships Adobe Stock has.
