a competing forum? that has stolen ECF content?

Have you seen ecig-world-forum? Looks like all their content was stolen from the ECF web site, with very few changes at all.

Checked it out just then, bit of a concern. Thanks for the post.

If you're interested I can forward you the email I got from them asking us to place an ad on their site.

Thanks Chip I'll forward this info and let the legal eagles sort it out.

Thanks for this information.

We will take action here, and we will notify ECF Registered Suppliers that if they advertise with copyright thieves we will terminate their ECF registration. Our content is extremely valuable to us, others can create their own and not steal ours.

We work hard to ensure other's copyright is not infringed on ECF. We always immediately remove any web material which is property of others when informed of an issue.

if they have in fact stolen content, a simple contact to their webhost should get them shut down.

Just not right. Their server shouldn't be happy very soon.

I must have gone to the wrong site.
I can't find much content at all.
Seems they just started up.

417 Posts in 131 Topics by 46 Members.

and most of those posts look like topic place holders.

Is there content some place else?

I did recognize the vendors with ads there.

Their home page has a blatant plagiarism of the ECF info pages. I suspect their host will be getting a take down notice before long...

Thanks.

I went to the forum and just didn't see much
I see what you are talking about now.
That text seems to be copied by many web vendors.
