    That eBay ad was undoubtedly posted by the person who's selling the CD; eBay's probably got a disclaimer going somewhere, so the seller's responsible. Or some such. You could try emailing him/her, asking for the source of your review to be mentioned. If you do, be sure to provide a link to your Amazon review, as well as some kind of evidence that you authored it.

    You could re-try the same approach with eBay themselves, mentioning that one of their members is using your review without attribution.

    I still have the original review saved in Words. Anyways, I don't mind them using it, I would just like to have a little credit.

    You've got it. More people have looked at that CD since they saw this
    post and all of them realize that it's yours. Maybe that was your reason
    for posting in the first place. You sly fox.

    If you didnt put copyright on it, then sorry, but they can take it and use it and it will not be illigal. But if you did but copyright on it and they did take it without permission, then you could get a huge some of money
    Hope you put copyright on :greenking

    I'm not completely sure on this, but if you write it then doesn't it automatically become your copyright?

    As long as you can prove that you did write it, though.

    This is what it says under American copyright law, and I think that it's the same in many countries all over the world.

    Or you could use the poor man's copyright. Send yourself a dated
    package in the mail containing whatever it is that you wrote and never
    open it, then if you need to go to court you can use that. Not quite as
    good as a copyright, but not nearly as expensive.
