    An author named Odysseus Harris appears to have stolen several story over the last 3 days in the Harry Potter section of fanfiction.net. Stories stolen include, The Return, by roxbury, Bluer Than Indigo by Vash, and Secret of the Male Veela by mrriddler, among others.

    I haven't checked all of his stories but given the update rate and the fact that Bluer than indigo seems to be a direct copy, I believe all 15 of his stories are plagiarized. The authors fanfiction page is here.

    I wanted to bring this to the attention of the community and more importantly, the authors which s/he stole from.

    This is either the most amazing sleeper account ever, or.. I don't even know.

    In the event that you are legit and not the plagiarist crying for attention again; report the plagiarism directly to the affected authors rather than driving views to him in the future.

    He says and I quote, "Dissapointed with the fandom. Leaving due to lack of reviews. I work so hard and get nothing for it. You guys are a bunch of ungrateful cunts."

    But seeing as almost all of his reviewers have already reported him due to them knowing he's plagiarizing, we won't need to lift a finger for the dipshit to get his account deleted.
