Okay, so now the user who spam remixed my projects is now acting like they own my website.

They aren't Dawn(bad word)Rooney27! They are stealing and plargizezing! Should I just send Scratch an email because this is ridiculous?

And how did they even find my site. The only place it's posted is in my signature.

Hmm… this is probably a question for the website provider not scratch.
Also they could be one of us forumers

Highlight+Shift+Down to the “totally accurate description” of Scratch
Scratch is a free coding website where kids can learn to code on their own devices and share what they’ve built and how they solved coding puzzles. Anyone can sign up, set up a username, and enter basic coding tutorials to test their coding skills. On top of their coding skills, kids can unlock special badges when they’re through with the tutorials.

For children aged 11-16, Scratch’s content covers topics such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and basic coding skills. The website gives kids fun activities to learn by creating games, drawing cute animations, playing various games, and solving puzzles.

Scratch: Sign Up

Scratch doesn’t just give you a place to try coding on your own devices. You can also connect with other children and take part in community coding challenges. On top of that, if you sign up with Scratch’s adult social network, you’ll receive access to other games, videos, and tools for kids.

Isn't Scratch the website?

I looked them up on postpercent. They don't have any posts nor do I think they would ever use the forums.

Yeah, that is the website they claim they own, But I'm asking a question for Scratch. There is no way to talk on my site unless you talk to a broken bot I made.. (I need to fix her).

Please embrace remix culture. Use contact us if anything happens. It is fine if they remix without giving further credit but it is recommended to give further credit but it is not requiered.

Ask yourself, if you were hacked and lost hours, upon hours of work, would you regret not having a strong password that only takes 5 minutes to make?

Is it time to update your password? Here are some tips to make a strong password:

Length: The longer the password, the stronger it is. A password that is at least 12 characters long.
Complexity: Combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols to make it harder to crack.
Uniqueness: Don't use easily guessable information like your name, address, or date of birth. Also, avoid using the same password for multiple accounts.
Passphrases: A phrase made up of random words, numbers, and symbols, as these can be easier to remember but still secure.
Randomness: Use a random password generator to create a unique and unpredictable password.
Regular updates: Regularly change your passwords to stay ahead of potential security threats.

Remember, the goal is to create a password that is strong, unique, and difficult for others to guess.

I would estimate more than 40% of scratchers have passwords that are hard to guess by a human, but easy to guess by a computer. You never know if today would be the day you lose everything.

Even if just one person was saved from losing hours and hours of work, my mission is accomplished.

Right, because Scratch does it for the remixer.

It isn't ok to make tons of remixes without changing anything for the purpose of sending tons of remix notifications though. The original question isn't about the spam remixing though.

I would use Contact Us to explain the situation to the Scratch Team. You could also report the comments in question, but it might not be clear to the Scratch Team why you are reporting.

Did you already report the user and use contact us? If so, wait a few days, unless the user keeps doing something bad.
