My eZine Article was "spunned" on another article directory

Hi Folks

Has this happened to you?

I found one of my articles that I wrote on eZinearticles made its way to another article directory with only a few change of words. All my articles are original.

As I was checking my article ranking on Google, it is second place on the first page of about 1.3 million pages (woohoo!!). Then I notice an article just below mine (third place). I took a quick glance and felt kind of a deja-vue. I opened the article and there it was, exactly like my article with only a few words changed (which in itself did not make any sense, I guess he used one of those cheap article spinners?). Of course the author bio was totally different. Hey, he had to do some work ...

Cheesh, couldn't he have at least restructured the paragraphs or something? Since it was not taken word for word (except for some poorly transformed words), I guess it's not plagiarism??? But the structure and sentences are exactly the same.

He should have at least proofread the "spunned" words to make sure it makes sense .... I was laughing ...

He used the same keywords as mine so that his article makes it to the first page of Google ... boy, talk about getting a free ride.

Anyways, I need to lie down ...
