I found an article on another website

Post by karl »

Hi,
I contacted CC throught the "contact us" option about a website that has my entire article displayed. I have this article for sale under usage only and I haven't sold any rights to it at all.
Is it possible that it could have sold and my profile hasn't been updated yet?
If not, how in the world did this site get my entire article and do I need to contact the website or will CC do it?

Hi Karl,

I've received your email. I'll be looking into it and contacting the website owner. I should have a response for you sometime tomorrow.

Thanks,

Hi,
I was just wondering if there was an update. The website still has the article up.
Thanks.

We have contacted the sites with stolen content, and have started seeing the articles come down. Let me know if you can still see your article.

I really hate to keep harping on this, but the article is still there with my byline. My content is showing no downloads of that piece. Should I contact the website myself?
