Well let's see. Hmm. I got a thief or troll few days ago and I reported him/her. His/her name is PhantomMaker and ghostdetector probably his/her alternative accounts. I really wanted to protect myself and my friends. But I got really angry at PhantomMaker for what s/he did for copying off of my OCs. D8<

Orignal (that's mine)
Theirs:

I found it very disturbing and this is my first time using this forum. Don't bashed on me. I reported this guy but I couldn't stand it and it might takes day for my tickets to respond. I blocked him/her as well.And I have a full story about this theif because I know this person since it bashed on me on tumblr

AdeviantART is ALSO for supporting other artists as well instead of pulling a drama here. Not just arts...

Hun, I'm going to warn you because I just posted the same story yesterday. To save yourself trouble... don't post to this thread. All you're going to get are people are sit in the complaints forum looking for someone to attack because they have nothing better to do.

Regardless of the "level" of advanced work, thieving is thieving. I do apologize with having to deal with such things already. It's never a fun feeling. Have you messaged the person politely letting them know you're aware of this? Usually that alone gets them to take it down.

Oh thank you ^^; I'm just sorry, I'm new to this. XP First time using it.

Also, I did ask the person to take this down but instead the person said, "NO THIS IS MINE!" in front of me and s/he refuses it. :C

Don't say sorry to me! It's something no one would expect. We both learned something new.

Ugh! That's seriously irritating. Well... best advice I can give. Take screenshots of all of the evidence including your note to them along with their response. Report it sending those along with it if you didn't already.

There are mare serious ways you can go about this, but even for me it's so out of the way. If you'd really like to you can send a letter to the DMCA.
