Quick update here - she did respond to my note - she was "miffed" to put it mildly but she has complied and revised her profile, removing the plagiarized portions..

Problem resolved.

I found it in a very boring way - I was looking around in the listings to see how my next year's advertising would shape up...saw this name which appeared new to me .. hmmm ... click ... read ... blink..blink...hey!!

I've since sent her a note....we shall see...

I can't find it now - but I've revised my profile recently, I'm a 'tweaker' ..

I wanted to tell you HOW I found it, though - in case you didn't try this. I just copied an entire paragraph from my profile, and put it through the Google machine

Popped right up!

That happened to me and yep, it really fried my cookies. I stewed about it a bit, never said/did anything and forgot about it - until you just reminded me ..

Sometimes it's just easier to be forgetful? lol

I put it in the mental file-folder along with the person I know who back-dates, and the one I know who has either 10 or 18 years experience depending on which profile you read, and those whose names/work I've seen with my own eyes and STILL couldn't believe, and ...

That file.

Just browsing and found a profile for a local notary which was obviously copied from mine...a few words rearranged but it's very obvious my profile was copied - on two sites...my profile has been in place since 2006 - hers since 2/2009.

Not sure if I should call her out on it or be flattered ...
