I just wonder if heads will roll for this one... (in the ad company perhaps)
I mean, to use the same girl for 2 different companies in the same field seems a bad mistake...

What happens is you can buy CDs or images of royalty free stock photos.
A single photo for web or small print add is about 50$, a CD with 180 or so photos is 1000$. You can use photos in unlimited amount of adds, but so can others - you may end up with such case.
You can also buy limited rights photo, where you get exclusive rights for certain photo for certain region for certain period of time. You negotiate price, based on number and type of media - for instance a front page print add in high circulated newspaper is more epxensive than mid page or back page.
This approach is more expensive, even if you print a bit more copies than you told you would. If you overdo it, you might face legal consequences.
So for web banners, agencies generally just peruse stock royalty free photos, relying on low proabability of competition using the same photos.
As for heads rolling, adds were proabably done with different agencies, who proabably have noticed this too late.
