Harry Potter/Death Note Plagiarism
On 3rd April, dancerchick17 sent me a PM through fanfiction.net to inform me that they believed my story, "Cold Comfort" had been stolen by Tamaki's Ramen. My story was written for Remus/Sirius in the Harry Potter fandom. Tamaki's Ramen's story for the Death Note fandom was an almost word for word copy with just the names and title changed.
My story "Cold Comfort":
Tamaki's Ramen's story "Stony Limits Cannot Hold Love Out":
After taking the screencaps, I had a look at another story listed as Tamaki's Ramen's work only to discover this was also one of my stories. After a quick check, I discovered Tamaki's Ramen has claimed at least five more of my own fics as their own in both the Death Note fandom and Ouran High School Host Club.
My story: "When the Water Caught Fire"
Tamaki's Ramen story: "Of Foil Blankets and Fire"
My story: "Break Me"
Tamaki's Ramen's story: "Gossamer Veils"
My story: "Breathe"
Tamaki's Ramen's story: "Queen Mab Hath Been With You"
My story: "Forbidden Fruit"
Tamaki's Ramen's story: "A Trick of the Light"
My story: "What Love Sounds Like"
Tamaki's Ramen's story: "A Composition of Beauty"

AFAIK, there has been no reply from Tamaki's Ramen as yet and, at the time of this post, the stories are still up.
I'd appreciate any help you can offer. I've never been in this situation before. Thank you.
