      Oh goody. I'm listed too. They used my old profile info though. Should I ask them to update the information they stole?

      I googled my name and noticed the similarities to my profile on one of the sites listed.  I couldn't log in as a user so I don't know what this is all about.

      The odds they would use the same bio, only spun with similar words, seems very high to me.

   Why don't you contact the other site's admin and ask them?  That seems like it has the potential to yield a better answer as to who on that end is using that info.

   I was just looking at a software package called WP Mage which claims to let you create eBay sites in minutes.
   
   They do it by taking content from article sites like ezinearticles and creating hundreds of posts.  To avoid any duplicate content penalties, you can set it to translate all the articles into another language then back again.
   
   We all know how useless auto-translaters are - it looks suspiciously like somebody used a similar idea here.
