A Strange Discovery...
« on: October 30, 2012, 12:04 PM »
So, I have a few searches in the form of RSS feeds that I can see where I am mentioned on the internet using a few different search engines.  I've started to see my posts on DonationCoder show up.

An example: http://donation.best...u/dishonored-review/

What is that?  Does anyone know? It has no links to DonationCoder anywhere which is why I was so skeptical of it.

Also check the main site at http://donation.best1.eu/

Thoughts?

Somebody trying to get ad money from harvesting other people's content - and possibly boosting other of their sites by inserting links.

I wonder if it's possible to get crap like that taken down...

Just another site robotically stealing content in the hopes they get enough search hits that end up resulting in people clicking through ad links.
