An alert, and very kind, reader has tipped me to the complete plagiarism of my Iron Man fic Mnemosyne's Lock, reposted entire on Wattpad under the atrociously spelled title of I Dont Remeber. (Wow, that hurt to type.) I have reported the repost to Wattpad, and hope that they will respond swiftly.
Please check out the "author" and see if they have done the same for any other posted stories. These folks are often serial plagiarists.

Dear Lord have mercy.

This was copied from VRTrakowski's "Mnemosyne's Lock" (http://vrtrakowski.4t.com/im/ml/MnemosynesLock1.html), which was written in 2008 by someone who spells, punctuates, and uses grammar far better than you. If you want to be noticed, work on your writing skills and show you have integrity by NOT plagiarizing someone else's work."
She only has 3 other stories, none of which sound familiar to me and all of which suffer from the abovementioned issues. Let us know if we can do anything further. Grr.
