This is a situation where consulting a copyright attorney might be advisable.

New response from Amazon.

They ARE ignoring take down notices.

They ONLY want their form used for notifying them.

That after ignoring my first 2 forms for over a month.

Even when the take down notice has everything on it their form does, they're still ignoring them.

Not a good sign.

Tim, in the D2D seminar I listened to yesterday, they mentioned that Amazon is having a lot of problems with plagiarized books. Some are even changing adjectives trying to spoof the bots that are looking for similar sentences.

I can't say that surprises me.

As far as I can tell though, nothing has been changed with my book. Just a comparison of the first page should flag the copy.

What surprises me is that I'd have expected all of them to be on the same account, and when they deleted the first 4, they'd have also deleted the account. But apparently not.
