Has anyone ever heard of petsmoz.com?

I came across this site by accident, and in their herp section I found a bunch of threads from BP.net word for word (even my username) but posted by "users" that I believe are computer generated due to their names...

Here is an example of a BP.net thread I posted on that is on Petsmoz.com

Do any of the Admins/Mods know about this?

Looks like that site is hijacking our threads as we post them...

I'll make sure we look into this.

Thank you, Aaron!

Yeah, something is up with this site, I wouldn't be surprised if they are pulling threads from other sites as well...

I might make an account on it (not with any real info) just to poke around

Holy I AM TOTALLY NOT COOL WITH THIS! I see my thread on the front page I just made.

Use an email you don't mind getting spam on, best would be one you make just to access sites like that so there isn't a chance you'll open something malicious from them. Hijacking might not be the only thing they are doing.

Same here, i found a bunch of threads that have information from me... including some with my real username in them...

Yes I see those! I am glad the poetry thread I made did not make its way there. I would have been P TO THE MFING O'ED.

From poking around this site, I have found that they are stealing threads from pretty much any website that is pet related... I have yet to find another "real user" online

I have also attempted to contact site staff... if they even exist.

I've seen a few things like that, after I "googled myself." Googled my photography website to see what came up, and lo and behold some things that I had posted on a photography forum came up. It's not a new thing. All you can do is report the website to the hosting company, if possible.
