Hello to you all. I came across this fanfic here Caught in the Web of The Spider | Scribble Hub and as soon as I read the first line of the first chapter, I knew it was a stolen work. The guy is stealing from this The Spider Chapter 1: Being a Hero isn't a Choice, an avengers fanfic | FanFiction , and even has a Kofi.

The real author of said fic has been MIA since 2021, and I doubt he will come back. Anyway, I honestly would stay quiet about it, because the fic is amazing and the visibility the fic would receive in SH would be bigger, but my man is scamming others with it.

In his Kofi, he says he writes, translates, and edits fics, but the fic in question is already edited, translated, and written.

Is there a way to report this? Thanks in advance.

I'm honestly surprised that this was taken down quickly. You wouldn't see this kind of response in WN. They'll keep it in there as long as it's earning them money.
Anyway, I just found out the guy has a WN account Carl_One, but I guess the readers there don't care that it's stolen work.

Must've been seen immediately by the admin. He does come around between 8pm and 11pm (+8 GMT).

WN really doesn't care about that, I already found not one but 3 stories copying The Spider there. No point in reporting either, as nothing has been done. Anyway, amazing work taking down the fics, at least they did something.
