What would you do?

Not the first time its happend to me but

http://www.interracialcreampie.net/ (http://www.interracialcreampie.net/)

is a total rip off of my site

http://www.ebonycreampie.biz (http://www.ebonycreampie.biz/)

The guy contacted me for a link exchange on another of my sites.

What would you do?

Proof that my site is the orginal? To start with the image in the top left corner is produced from a photogroph I personaly took and I have never given to anyone else. I can produce the orginal photo and others I took at the same time.

wow that is so blatant

there is copying a site and making it different by changing a few things - but that is simply stealing. You may want to bring it to his attention and ask if he has his own designer or whether he does his own work. Get all his info - be friends, then hit him with it.

remember, keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

then sue him after contacting your lawyer

wow, I would not accept that if I were you!!

This happened to me with one or two of my sites in the past. Here's what I did...

The guy was in Germany. He copied one of my sites and kept all my link trades intact on his copy. He renamed the site, adjusted the look of it slightly, then began contacting all the site owners of the link trades to set up his own traffic trades. Several of those webmasters then contacted me and alerted me about the dipshit.

I had a lawyer friend of mine draw up a rather stern and official-sounding C&D order and emailed it to him, but usually these twits who go copying other's sites are basically assholes by nature, so they tend to be quite cocky. I didn't stop there, I also sent notifications to his host as well as his ISP. (had to do some digging to find that information out of course).

Before either of those were moved to action he ended up changing his copy of my site even more, so it looked just different enough, but I put out the word anyway to about 300 webmasters that he was blacklisted. His copy of my site never really took off, and about a year later his domain was a dead link.

Sounds like a hassle, but I'd like to think it was worth it, and that cheaters rarely if ever profit from me. :)

>>> " official-sounding C&D order" <<<
