  I am quite upset that this site http://www.wowgoldco.com/…/edmee-schalkx-rift-platinum-sale-arti…
  is allowed to steal information and copy paste the article is full of copypaste, private information and other things. This will damage my good name.

  what are the steps to get this site down – at least the postings using my info and name

  Thanks
  Edmee

  If you have authored articles which that site has stolen, send them a DMCA notice. Follow the steps at http://stolen.wordpress.com but note: that is not a WordPress.COM site, so WP.com staff cannot help you. You are on your own.

  Thank you for your answer. Can you tell me how I can find out where a site is hosted?

  Thanks

  how I can find out where a site is hosted?

  Try here: http://www.whois.com/

  Enter the domain name in the search box. You’ll get some basic information for free that should be enough to find the hosting service.
