Articles on HubPages Stolen by This Person.
- Vladimir Karasposted 2 years ago
0 I sent an email to the person who was stealing the articles and filed a DMCA a few days ago. He/she never responded, but I'm relieved to know that all of my articles have been taken down from there . Thank God. Gianella, thank you for the information
But there's still a twist the person is still stealing articles from HubPages. Here's what he/she has just stolen now.
Have you ever heard of a thief leaving his address for the police to come and arrest him?
Whoever the person is, he/she is really clever, and I believe he/she is not following the hubbers but the topics, and whoever posts a fresh article in his topic of interest, he simply thinks it's written for him to have it copied. It would be difficult to stop this person without the help of HubPages. HubPages seriously need to tighten the screws.
Browsing the Acpeo site, I have found many more HP articles still there and not all are attributed. These articles by Beth Eaglescliffe have a link back but no attribution visible to the author except a mention to her as Beth at the start of the article.
I'm not sure what's going on at that site. My article has been re-posted there by the same person.
See:
It's crazyThe website's Term and Conditions page made me laugh. Do thieves steal from each other's homes . . . Wondering. . .
See what they say:
https:// acpeo.com/terms-and-conditions/?amp=1I compared the Hubpages sitemap and the stolen content website's sitemap. On Hubpages an article shows published at 3:23AM and on the copied article at 2:13AM. I am not sure what timezones are being followed.
Matt stated that they are trying to fix the issue. It's been almost 9 days now, not 30 hours.
Here's the first forum thread I created 9 days ago.

Hello Everyone,
Guess what? I wrote an article against that site. They also copied that. Lol! What else can we expect? Thank you, John, for your wise advice.
Here's the link to my original article:
https://discover.hubpages.com/literatur … tent-theftJust type out a standard invoice, paste into or attach it to an email. You don't need a lawyer. I've only done it a few times. Yes, they'll probably ignore it, but when faced with a legitimate demand for payment, they usually get the articles taken down fast. It seems to concentrate the mind
Acpeo has already copied it. What's strange is that they copied it as soon as I published it. By mistake I used the word 'World' in the title of the article, and within 15 minutes of publishing it, I realized my mistake and changed the word 'World' to 'Global.' They took it before I made the change. I mean 'Wow.' Too quick!
My article did not stay on HubPages and climbed to discover as soon as I published it. Maybe it happened because I was working on this article for several days. I worked on it for 5 days and Acpeo took it away in 5 minutes. I'm sick of it!
Now I'm hoping that HP's system will not flag it by mistake!https://support.google.com/legal/answer … 1&rd=2
I've filed DMCA for two and going to submit one more for the most recent one.
Will do today
Thank you so much for providing the email address, CYong.I've filed DMCAs and sent emails to the email address listed as his username on the website. As I can see the user image on that gmail address, I believe the person is receiving my emails and the email address is valid.
Cool! I am not being sarcastic.
I have sent an email to the web host as well now let's wait and watch what's next. Matt asked me to file DMCA, I respect his words and did that plenty of times. I am not the only one who's writing hubs.
What do you mean by I am writing hubs and waiting for them to be stolen? (Some of us writers were having fun and thought that by writing a hub against that site, we might be able to stop the thief.)
Again it's not just me who's facing this problem. I am not blaming HP for anything, we were just asking for HP's help and it was not just me who was asking for help. Please go and read all the forms.
I think you are having a bad day CYong. Please stay calm. Happy Weekend!!
You are not that lucky to be my target but you have targeted me. And I am not talking to you directly. So please don't reply under my responses now.
I hope your wish come true about depicting my real intentions on this matter.
I never rejected the suggestion of filing DMCA, I filed it and even provided links on this forum and on other forum discussions as well so that others can file it too. If you are so concerned, please do read all of the threads that have been started on this subject.
Yes, thanking you was costly in the sense that I spent a lot of energy on this forum discussion for nothing.
Second, I never sent you an email; you sent it to me, and I replied to you after a month or so when things calmed down. To be clear, I do not respond to every email I receive. If you were so concerned about Mr. MG Singh's matter, you should have responded on the forum discussion rather than sending me an email.
I mentioned the email you sent to me about 10 months ago because in previous comments you confused people on this forum by using the term "Other hubber," then mentioned "a hub about Pakistan," then about my forum post that I created about 10 months ago and has nothing to do with this matter, and your never-ending blames. I wanted to make it clear to everyone on this forum. I don't want them to get confused.. Just a quick wrap-up, I hope that makes sense.

Thanks to ThatMommyBlogger for finding this site and bringing it up in another thread. I think it deserves its own thread to warn HP writers.
