Hi guys, Was playing around with my server last night and checking my traffic stats - followed a referer link and found someone with exactly the same site as me (design, name etc just on a different domain). I quickly got my host to change passwords etc but they now have my site (not too worried about that) but also a script I own exclusive rights to and cost me around $1k. I emailed their host about it - no reply. Emailed them - no reply. Did a whois lookup - have most of their details from that What can I do? thanks!
yeah may want to hack into his server, and look at his php/SQL... make sure he stole it rather than copying your layout. then, redirect his traffic to your site..
haha bro dont waste your time on it.. thats the way internet is.. but if you really want you need to go to court.. but if he's from another country.. thats hard
if your script is in php, there is no way to steal it unless you server is hacked. otherwise i believe he stole you layout
thanks guys its the sql database too, there were SQL errors on the site linking back to my host once i cut him off lol - im not too bothered was just wondering how common it is! lesson learnt anyway! no idea how to hack into his/her server so any tips welcome and hey fuck it, what goes around comes around i guess
DUDE i paid helluh cash... for a script from some guy on digital point :/ wtf. that makes me angry. edit: its the getmoretwitters script right? cuz its being sold here hxxp://lazyrevenue.com
fuck it - sorted out a jv with the original owner and got a pretty good deal in the end! so yeh moving on! cheers for the kick up the ass guys and girls
They probably used something like httrac which is a freeware script that can download all html files. Like someone else said here, there's no way for them to steal the .php files unless they actually hacked into your webserver (no easy task in most cases)
whats the site link of the stolen one may be i can help ?? and are u 100% sure that he stolen ur db as well script because it may be possible that ur hosting provider leaked it ! or if u own the server then it hacked 100% either no other way to get db and php files ! php files can be recode and layout also can be stolen but DB 100% nope ! unless hacked or has access to mysql !
