But the new owner in rushia has copied our old site onto the domain name and is making it look like ours. All the content he is using is ours.

Any suggestions on what to do about this.

Georgetown Cemetery Grant Parish Louisiana I am considering making a copyright complaint to google.


This is the second time this has been done to one of my sites the first was on the domain shootingshow.com where the hyjacker wanted $600 to get it back which I refused to pay.
I would first make a backup of the CD of the domain and a printed version and send it to copyright.gov with $35 and a copyright application and wait the 4 month to get your registration number then file takedown orders as per Content Infringment - pls advise and if they are making money off your content also file with their affiliate providers [also it's worth knowing who is on this list U.S. Copyright Office - Service Provider Agents as they are protected under DMCA Title II.
