I'm just wondering how this forum relates to this forum: https://vicidialforum.com/

That's one of the groups that has decided a way for them to make money is to copy all of our content with a scraper and then offer to sell us that domain at a heavily inflated price. This has happened before, and I'm sure it will happen again. There isn't much we can do about this given the country these people are located in, so all I can do is suggest that everyone just ignore them.

Good to know. Maybe file a complaint with Google and Bing?

I've tried complaints through Google years ago, it takes a long time, and effort, and they don't always block the websites in the end. Then the scammers can just register a new domain name for $10 and put a new website up the next day.
