To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Bryant Gergeres and I am the authorized agent of Inquisitr Ltd. A website your company hosts (according to WHOIS information) is infringing on at least one copyright owned by my company.
Numerous articles were copied onto your servers without permission. All of the search returns at the following search link infringe upon our copyrights: libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/latestarticles.cgi
As you can see, there are several pages of results. Your client's Web site is automated to steal our content. With such a pervasive violation of my company's copyrights, I ask that, in addition to disabling the links copied below in this DMCA takedown request, you consider further action against your client's account.
A sample of the original articles found on page one of the above-copied search link, to which we own the exclusive copyrights, can be found at: 1. www.inquisitr.com/2216087...-the-path-of-degradation/ 2. www.inquisitr.com/2510140...e-says-its-illegal-video/ 3. www.inquisitr.com/1692212...vage-judged-new-commands/ 4. www.inquisitr.com/374041/...mas-passport-application/ 5. www.inquisitr.com/2494892...in-guangdong-china-video/ 6. www.inquisitr.com/225978/...-for-6-hours-after-death/ 7. www.inquisitr.com/366921/...el-with-alleged-mistress/ 8. www.inquisitr.com/2080866...d-at-university-of-texas/ 9. www.inquisitr.com/2453102...ishap-at-campaign-speech/ 10. www.inquisitr.com/1782509...st-like-the-nfl-patriots/
The unauthorized and infringing copies can be found at: 1.libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=40556 2. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=42560 3. libertysflame.com/cgi- bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=36847 4. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi? ArtNum=32880 5. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=42446 6. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=29699 7. libertysflame.com/cgi- bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=32774 8. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi? ArtNum=39696 9. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=42138 10. libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=37308
This letter is official notification under Section 512(c) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (”DMCA”), and I seek the removal of the aforementioned infringing material from your servers. I request that you immediately notify the infringer of this notice and inform them of their duty to remove the infringing material immediately, and notify them to cease any further posting of infringing material to your server in the future.
Please also be advised that law requires you, as a service provider, to remove or disable access to the infringing materials upon receiving this notice. Under US law a service provider, such as yourself, enjoys immunity from a copyright lawsuit provided that you act with deliberate speed to investigate and rectify ongoing copyright infringement. If service providers do not investigate and remove or disable the infringing material this immunity is lost. Therefore, in order for you to remain immune from a copyright infringement action you will need to investigate and ultimately remove or otherwise disable the infringing material from your servers with all due speed should the direct infringer, your client, not comply immediately.
I am providing this notice in good faith and with the reasonable belief that rights my company owns are being infringed. Under penalty of perjury I certify that the information contained in the notification is both true and accurate, and I have the authority to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright(s) involved.
Should you wish to discuss this with me please contact me directly via email reply at bgergeres@gmail.com.
Best regards Bryant Gergeres Authorized Agent Inquisitr Ltd

I never really trust a business contact who uses free email services as an official email provider. I know some Nigerian princes and barristers that also use @gmail.com to conduct their business transactions with their "beneficiaries".
