I don’t really know how to help you, but I just wanted to say I am sorry for that and wish you good luck in getting it fixed very soon! Their disclaimer is a bit of nonsense too.

Yes, contact WordPress ASAP! Do you put the copyright disclaimer at the end of your stories? Here is ours:

Oh my goodness that is incredible. I am so sorry. I can’t believe someone would do this. I don’t have any disclaimer on my blog anywhere. I hope you can get this sorted out really quickly.

I just looked at their website and they even have this actual post added on there. They must use some software that automatically posts whatever you post. Really terrible blog.

So sorry Melanie! I hope there is some resolution to this soon. Keep us updated. Wish I could help – but besides contacting WordPress, I wouldn’t know what to do.

ihave been given a lot of advice- the site just emailed me, said my request was granted but you know what they just did??- the host provider will think everything is deleted but they simply REPOSTED STILL WITH NO LINK TO ME!!

oh man! That’s terrible. That’s theft. Is there a next step?

I let leaseweb know- they can delete the entire site- it looks like there are 3 or 4 other sites they are stealing from

Ok, so there’s hope. Have you received any advice on preventing this from happening in the future?

no- just that I can also let DMCA and Google know- they WILL deal with it but it takes time- seems like the admin of this site is playing games but at least he responded in a sneaky manner- This will show leaseweb his true intentions

Does anyone know the name of the site where you can check to see if I others have been stealing or citing your writing?

I just noticed 10 posts were clicked by nanadownload.com and i checked it out only to stumble upon at least thirty of my exact posts, pictures and all
I think if you google your title of a post, it would show if Google listed anywhere else

I’m glad they deleted but sorry you had to go through this. I had some site hijack one of my posts – where my daughter made easter baskets for the children of deployed soldiers- and redirect to their soft porn site. Nightmare!!! Until I got that straightened out, I was sick about it.

the admin at first just moved all my content, then when I caught him, he removed all 28 articles but I see 4 more clicks on my links by nanodownload so I am hoping leasewb deletes his site because all his content is stolen and without back links

I hope so. I’ve recently noticed on my blog, the old posts have my copyright notice removed. So I’m going through them and replacing that.
Also two or three “bloggers” have clicked a “like” on one or more of my posts and left their gravatar as their name but posting my domain as theirs! Trying to get them off but no success yet. They’re trying to link with my stuff. 😦
