    Default Grrrrrrrr how annoying!

    I have just logged onto childcare.co.uk and found someone has just cut and pasted all my website and profile to use as theirs! Grrrrrrr! I took hours writing it and she's pinched it all. Not sure what I can do about it but it drives me mad when people do this sort of thing. I thought I'd look to see where I featured in the list of local childminders and her profile came up first in the list and as I started reading the first few lines I recognised it all as MINE!
    Grrrrr I feel a bit better now after my rant!

    The cheek of it. Lazy so and so

    Not sure if you can do anything but it looks bad on you as no one will know whos copied who.
    Time Out.. The perfect time for thinking about what you're going to destroy next.

    Agree, not sure what can be done, but what a cheek.

    this happened to me - but off my website, they c&p the lot including my animals pmsl, another friend noticed it and told me, so I have now protected alot of my paperwork by only allowing access to people I know and parents, I dont mind if they did copy, as I just ask for a link back to my website in return lol!!

    I would mention it to childcare.co.uk x

    The owner of childcare.co.uk is also the owner of this site so I would let him know what's happened.

    Miffy xx
    Keep smiling!
