Sadly, news of another mass plagairism in the fanfic world.

It seems several sites are mirroring ff.net in real time (so all updates are mirrored too) illegally. They are:

PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT VISIT THESE SITES UNLESS YOU HAVE AN AD BLOCKER INSTALLED

• http://www.thebuystock.org/
• http://www.talkfictions.com/
• http://fictionavenue.org/
• http://thanfiction.org/
• http://hmofiction.org/

These sites exist to make money from your work with advertisements on the site. This is called spamdexing. Please report them. 

In order to have your work removed, or get the entire sites shuts down do the following:

1. Go here:https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/spamreportform?hl=en
2. Put in the name of the website (one report each)
3. Write in additional details: This is a spamdexing mirror site to https://www.fanfiction.net/and has stolen my profiles and intellectual property.
4. Click “I am not a robot” and then “Report webspam.”
5. Report more by clicking the link on: Go back to the webspam report form.

ALSO:

Email fanfiction.net to bring this to their attention, asking them to have these sites taken down.

Finally, you can also file a DMCA takedown order with each site. They are legally required to remove your materials if you send one. Here is a template made by tikatu on tumblr, for an anti-plagiarism forum on fanfiction.net.

To Whom It May Concern,

I have discovered that my original fanfiction works and my personal fanfiction.net profile have been posted without my permission on your site. I am from [insert country you’re from].

My original fan fiction works can be found here: [insert your profile link]. 

Your stolen works can be found here: [insert link to stolen works]. 

Copyright law in the United States implies that even a derivative work (which mine is) that cannot be sold enjoys some protection from copyright infringement. We can see this in the realm of approved derivative works such as tie-in novels. I realize this is still a gray area, and is disputed in many venues. However, until a definite ruling comes down which removes fan fiction entirely from under the copyright umbrella, I will claim what rights I do have. [Use this ONLY if your work is fanfiction AND if you are from the US. Delete if your work is original.]

You may reach me at my email address: [your email address].

I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted work described above is not authorized by the copyright owner and is otherwise not permitted by law.

I swear that the information contained in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or have an exclusive right in law to bring infringement proceedings with respect to its use.

Thank you. I look forward to a timely resolution to this matter.

[Add electronic or scanned physical signature, depending on how you are sending this.]
