    Yes, I have noticed that you are not learning very quickly, but keep at it, it's a slow process for some people.



    I have also noticed that you do have trouble trying to define things.
    Unfortunately I am not sure how to help with that, other than to say again... just heed the advice that all the good people here are freely giving you.

    Roll on Christmas, I say. ;)

    Engage with positive spirits I would say, if I were you...

    Fantasy....

    well makes a change from love of copycats I s'pose.

    Thing about your vendetta hpuse is YOU don't know who your target is, clearly.

    Because these websites don't continue to trade thanks to OUR support! It's google keeps them going;)

    I need help, last moth my mother in law needed to apply for a passport, she asked me to find details in the internet and I put her details into a copy cat website, when I was about to pay the page close down (I havent paid) and a realised that it was not the real website. Now this company is asking my mother in law money for the services, the said they are going to take her to the small claim court. they got all her details but is my IP address and a fake signature done for me (i know this ilegall) . Mi mother is very scared, my question is she should paid or not.

    Following category of copycats website advertisement are removed so far from Google.

    - passport services
    - driving license services
    - London congestion charging

    Oh by the way, if you are like BoP, Pollycat etc those who jump in joy seeing a copycat website link in google search - please do not think them as adverts.

    I would rather suggest a crash course in Google search fun-de-mentals..:rotfl:

    Hahaha, another name calling...
    I guess its all due to the frustration mounting up seeing no passport copycat ads yet on google......


    BoP,
    This might help if you are bleeding in pain seeing a copycat site in their search indexes.

    https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/2744324

    Oh, by the way,
    Those passport copycat ads used to be the first link that appeared on google around 6-8 weeks ago ....:rotfl:

    BoP, history of this forum says it all...check this post of yours, showing something. That too, is history now.
    Nothing in that link with regard removal of service providers.

    Where is this team of engineers hpuseless?
