Someone contacted me about wanting membership at the following site.

http://crossfire-hacks.com

I was baffled at first, then I looked at the site. It looked very similar. I check out the page source and it has direct links to MMOBugs.com on it.

Someone failed Site Rip 101.
 
Haha! They copied and pasted the exact welcome message on the home page. Are you kidding me? rofl

Maybe you should have a look at who you paid to create it. As it was ripped straight from the front page of my site. Hell check the source, it still has links to my site in it.

MMOBugs.com

Thanks for contacting us, we currently on working on a new template from a
paid site, we will tell you when this is removed. sorry for the troubles.
 
Fry said:
Can I at least get the story behind how it all happened please.

CrossFire said:
We started doing this project weeks ago, and a friend of our staff offered
to make our site, he made it fairly fast and made us suspicious, but since
you have shown us your layout and we checked our source we are currently
working on a new style and will update it shortly.
 
rofl, well at least they know they are in the wrong & are going to change it... instead of ignoring you.
 
Shouldnt that site be pulled down til the links are removed? Its still running with original source
