Article Theft or Author Shenanigans?

Was looking around the content section of Digital Point this morning and found a thread offering 15 dog-related articles for $30. I haven't checked all of them but at least two have the same exact titles as articles being offered here by beconrad. Both articles are being offered here for full rights.

So, if you have any doggy-related stuff, you might want to check it out.

Of course, it could be a CC author trying to offload some stuff that hasn't sold here. But, in light of the recent article thefts somehow I just don't think that's what's happening here. If the author is selling them, shouldn't he take them down before offering them for sale somewhere else?

Hi Michele,

I posted a link to digital point in June, after I found that one of my CC articles had been stolen and then resold there to an unsuspecting customer. I suspect that there are other CC articles on there, as well.

Here's my original post. http://www.constant-content.com/forum/v ... =4&t=23230

I would have posted something in the DP thread if I knew for sure they were stolen. The poster seems to be offering quite a bit of stuff right now. I suppose the author here could simply be selling alternative versions of articles here or they could be truly stolen. It's hard to tell with only a title to go on.

We just bought this article package and will be investigating it once we receive the content.
