someone is giving away my products via a wordprss site
-
I have just found that it seems this WordPress site is giving away one of my books free. One which has never been made available free. 875 downloads is over $2000 of lost sales.
This is the site muddfitbiral1948spamjunk
Can anyone shed any light on this please?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. If a blog is infringing on your copyright you can first report the blog via the drop-down menu in the admin bar and second you can file a DMCA takedown notice if you choose. This particular blog it seems you can also report for abuse, as it appears to be violating the terms of service (http://en.wordpress.com/tos/ see point 2).
Instructions for reporting the blog can be found here:

Thank you very much for that.
I have now done all those things. Stealing from a 90 year old lady, the author is what they are doing. Sickening. -
You’re welcome. I also reported them for the ToS violation. The ToS staff are quite strict where this is concerned. They probably won’t reply to you directly (unless you filed a DMCA notice), but they review every report and in my experience blogs like these get suspended. Just be aware that it won’t happen immediately.

Oh that was kind of you. I have filed the DMCA notice, so we will see, I guess.
Big thanks again, you have calmed my nerves a shade since finding this earlier! all the best, Jon -
