My work - an old portfolio site, which hasn't been updated since '08
http://www.jameseveritt.co.uk/
And this guy who has ripped me off, and even gone as far as photoshopping his name onto my business card.

I guess there are certain similarities.
seriously though, I think that's the most blatant rip I've ever seen. Is this happening more and more often these days?

less a rip, more a physical identity mugging.

Got my pitchfork and a rope at the ready. You want us to quietly befirend the guy one by one for a few days before we fuck his shit up?

thats sht james -
simple email threatening to sue
then if he doesnt respond, try find him on social media like linkedin and find out where he works

Wow, this one beats mine hands down...
Then again, his site says 1999-2010... Yours is from 2001... You ripped him...
Find out as much info on him as you can and then socially fuck him up.
A direct message calling him out could do the trick too, at least with getting him to take it down.
No idea with regard to legal action though.

Britt Buggs just went down a notch.
This rip is unfuckingbelievable.

I cant even figure out why this guy ripped off your site. There's just nothing there aside from your work basically, no real site design. Very odd that this guy chose that site to rip off.
- Not referring to the work, dont get why he even used the same site design.CygnusZero4

That.... is fucking ridiculous.
If he's in Melbourne or Adelaide, I can send this around a few friends of mine that work in the industry... all I can see is a mobile number... I'm tempted to text him just to tell him he's a scamming fuck, or send him the url to this thread so he knows he's been made.
Bump this again during Aussie office hours in about 14 hours to let more people know...

I'm not worried about the site design. I know its a simple layout, hardly groundbreaking. I'm more bothered about the work he's passing off as his own!

LOL - he still has your footer!!

This guy should be shot
