RedSugarSlashers Theft
Unfortunately, someone has stolen one of Becca’s works on AO3. The original is called The Watcher, it’s about a reader stalking Myers until one fateful night, he’s injured and the reader takes him in. The theif in question has saved that story and tweaked it, literally copying and pasting parts from Becca.
As of now, after confrontation, the only actions the theif has taken is changing their username, barely editing the blatant parts they copied, deleting any comments confronting them on the issue, changing their AO3 settings so that non-archive members cannot comment, and adding a half-assed note about their work being a “tribute” to Becca (starsinthesnow/redsugarslashers).
The icing on the cake is that this person is accepting Ko-fi donations from something they blatantly stole. They have a link to it on the last chapter.
If you’re able to contact this person to remove this story, please do. They won’t listen if only a few people tell them. Please, at least spread this if you can. I don’t want them to be bullied off the internet, I just need the story to be removed. There’s no need to force someone else off of social media after mourning the loss of a great artist who left.
Imshady has also made a post explaining more on the situation if you care to share that post also.
I refuse to let Becca be disrespected like this.
