Confusing advertising

I just had the advertisement of a superannuation company pop up on my news page. I thought it was BCNA showing pink men until I read it. Not quite plagiarism but very close.

    Hi @Blossom1961, do you have a screenshot of this out of interest or who the superannuation provider was?

    @Mez_BCNA It is on news.com.au so you can see for yourself. It is aware super.

    It’s a bit similar but if BCNA starts using different coloured people, as discussed (options only) in a recent design/look forum, it will look much more alike.

    My little men on the site were pink. What colour were yours @Afraser?

    Ah, the ones I saw were multicoloured! Some pink, some blue, green, red....I didn’t know until recently that different colours are used, for marketing/information purposes, for different types of cancer!
