Plagiarism by Dance Clothes UK

Previous

June 21, 2012: Originally Dance Clothes UK copied "tips for wearing tights" in its entirety but has now eliminated a couple of sentences, leaving the rest of their plagiarism intact.  They also stole entire paragraphs from my how to wear a dance belt section.

Does this look familiar?

How about this?

If you believe in paying liars and cheats, be sure to do business with these people and buy something.  Otherwise, consider sending them an email supporting my position.  It should be pointed out that I don't make any money at all publishing this website, while they do make a profit ripping it off.

Thank you so much!  Removing or re-writing your page will solve this problem.

The page you copied is located at

It is commendable that your store features men's dance gear, and I would hope we can co-exist for mutual benefit in the future.

OK guys, if you want a war, bring it on! 

I'm sure you could write an article about wearing tights without stealing my writing. If not, you could at least credit the source - my website - and link to it.  Once again I request you get rid of the offending page.  Failure to act will force me to take measures to protect myself from your plagiarism.

On May 8, I sent you the following:

"Your website says you have imaginative and creative dancewear.  Terrific!

What you don't have is imagination and creativity in writing the website.  Your article on tips for tights for men is 100% copied from "Dr. Dancebelt's Guide: everything you need to know about dance belts and more"

Please tell me what you plan to do to correct this problem immediately.
