For what it's worth, one of my stories was copy and pasted to Amazon by Ron Mexico, likely some from other lit authors too. His list of stories there goes on for over four pages.
 
I sent the PM. My story also showed up on Barnes and Noble. All he needed to do was change the title and I never would have found it.
 
Although even then, given what happened last time, Laurel will probably encourage individual authors to take their case to Amazon.
 
Did you use the report feature on amazon and tell them its yours?

As for the site, don't waste your time.

After Evelyn Turner was caught with over 200 stolen stories Manu posted a thread about how to fight stolen stories.

In other words Literotica will no longer make an effort to protect its authors as it once did in the past.

Too busy posting Kitty pics is my guess.

Chase this down yourself as best you can and in addition to reporting it to amazon post a review on the book and tell everyone its stolen.
 
But we all can. If authors here will cite their stories listed here that have been stolen and published by this person, when people here are comfortable that the story indeed has been stolen, they can post that as a review and in the discussion section of the book on Amazon. After a few of these, Amazon should get the idea that it's enabling theft by this particular "author."

Can you post the link to the book on amazon and your lit link?

That way others can try reporting it to amazon as well.

Also check smashwords. If its on B/N it might be there through them.

If it is give me the link. I have kept in touch with the person at SW that originally contacted me about mine being stolen by Turner.

He also uncovered another lit story by Xellebabex so if its there I will send him the links and he will check and wipe the account off of SW

They take theft far more seriously than amazon

I reported it to Amazon and Barnes and Noble. I guess that's all I can do. To write a review on Amazon I believe I'd have to buy it first. The story is "How I met my Shemale". I published it on Amazon in the Erotica Lover's Collection ebook under pen name Glen and Vivian Gilbert.

Nope

Unfortunately(but in this case a good thing) amazon lets people review without purchase which leads to a lot of shitty troll reviews, but for this works well in your favor.

Not the case for me. With an Amazon account (for selling my novel), I logged on and tried to write a review but it stopped me because I have not bought or sold (all my sales elsewhere) a single book.
 
I review books on Amazon I haven't bought there. But I do buy a lot of books there and review books I have bought there. Interesting that Amazon bothers to keep track of buying in that way.

So you're selling it on amazon as well?

If that's the case you have all the proof you need by having an older publication date.
 
Holy shit....700+ books

Sure sign of a thief....look at the publication dates these things are being released far to quickly to be being written.

They mostly seem to be humiliation/reluctance themes and Lesbian.

Thing that sucks is with that many listings its hard to look at all of them
 
Vile that someone can do that. If you've purchased something off Amazon you should be able to review it.

I'd screen grab your works and provide links. You can back up your facts and they can't do it may take a while but the truth shall out.

It's a double edged sword to be sure, but Amazon allowing stolen material to be profited from will land them in a lot of trouble. E-books or not.
 
I have an Amazon account because my novel is for sale there. However, I have not sold a single copy AT AMAZON. Neither have I bought a book there. I didn't buy the book (noted by the author here) so I fail to qualify and three counts. I offer my situation as a qualifier because I bet any case would allow me write a review.

I'll bet all the photos he is using for cover art is stolen too.

If gotten from a photo service, I'd sure as hell like to know which one. Purchasable cover images for erotica are very hard to find.
 
The Ron Mexico Amazon version of this specific book has been hit with one "Stolen?" comment. It's evidently going to take more direct hits than that, though, to get Amazon's and potential buyers' attention.

Probably stole them off some porn website...at least that's what it looks like.
 
Here's the first five, all stolen from Lit.

We already know Amazon has the technology to discover this. When you enter their special program ( whatever it's called... You get more benefits from Amazon when you agree to it ) they look for free versions available and ding you when they locate them.

They could do the exact same thing to every work published, if they actually cared.

Hell, even without being in the special (short bus) program they search for the title and finding one they ask if it is yours. Of course they only ask and no proof required, let you click yes or no.

They did this when I submitted Susan's Secret...they found the copy here on lit. I just said it was mine and they continued on to publishing it.
