  My son runs a book review site. We just saw someone stole one of his reviews. This is the stolen post –

  Is there anything we can do about it?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That’s not hosted at WordPress.com but is using software from WordPress.org, so it’s a bit more difficult to get something done, but not impossible. I recommend these steps http://manolofood.com/whine-journalism-and-how-to-bring-the-splashback/ and please look at the comments, the part where I talk about reporting them to Google Adsense. That will stop this blog cold, trust me.

  You’re welcome. I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole blog were deleted shortly, once their adsense account is suspended (and it will be).

  I did just as you said with Google Ads. The whole site is now down. Thank you so much! :)
