How do I stop a blogger from plagiarism? Tried contacting!
-
I have thrice attempted to contact a blog author who is reposting my articles without permission, and not properly linking to the original content or attributing any credit. The blog itself appears very haphazard and incomplete, though there are new articles (MY ORGANIZATION’S) being posted regularly. I have posted in the WordPress forum, but received no help directly from WordPress yet. Please assist, as this blog author is using material that is not hers and claiming it as her own by omitting author / original article links.
I’ve received no response to my three (moderated) comments on the other person’s blog. Please help me fix this issue! I’ve posted in the forum before, with no luck. How do I contact WordPress directly??

If you know or can find out who is hosting the site, you should contact the web hosting company directly and then using their preferred method (they should provide you the format) lodge a formal complaint. Typically you can do that by sending an email to abuse@ the hosting company and they can assist you.
Often sites like who is hosting this can help you find the web host so you know who to contact.
