Lesson to be learned, don't use celebrities photos to market your business without their consent.

According to TMZ, 50 Cent just received a nice pay day from auto company Phenomenal Vinyl, Rim Source Motorsports for using Fif's picture to promote their business without his consent.

TMZ learned that Rim Source Motorsports just paid 50 Cent an undisclosed amount of money to get out the lawsuit that Fif filed against them.

The original story was that 50 didn't want the company posting any pictures of him, but they didn’t listen. Not only did the company post pics, they even tagged him on Instagram, resulting in then a lawsuit, which they just paid to get out of.

Another win for 50 Cent, who’s getting ready to host his own late-night TV show on BET. Check out the image Rim Source Motorsports used of Fif in the gallery (above).
