Hello
My name is Sarah A. I am a 20 year old student in southern
california. During my years 17-20 I was visiting an artist
web site on major record label SONY MUSIC.
Being a writter I had posted many poems on that particular
artist web site. I had been banned from that web site
shortly after posting my poetry. 3 months later I had
realized a different artist had taken all my poems word
for word including the titles and used it in their new cd
that is now mainstream and #2 in europe.
Nobody beleives me , but I later realized I havent even
posted them on the site, I only posted one. The artist
actually had to hack into my computer to get that
information. I then realized my computer had crashed
shortly after the visit to the site.
Needles to say what is happening here, I am not a lawyer
and I dont know how to get my poems back!! They are
personal to me and I feel degraded by what had happened.
I am still trying to find the hard drive, but I have the
one with all the poems. My questions are : What do I need
to do to get my rights back, and can I sue the artist for
fraud by putting their name on my lyrics? Also how do I
obtain my records of post on the message board from sony?
If they did hack into my computer to obtain my poetry ,
what can I do to deffend myself againt them.
ps. I am serious , I need to know the answers. My email is
sarahalzaid@yahoo.com... Please do not reply unless you
beleive my story whole heartedly!!
Thank you
