Identity Theft With Malicious Intent to Commit Copyright Infringement Fraud
Someone is using other people's names and fake mail.com email addresses to file copyright infringement claims across my web platforms with malicious intent to terminate all my online accounts and websites. I am being cyberstalked with malicious intent.

- Federal computer crimes: Malicious intent is the deliberate use of a computer system to cause harm or commit a crime.
- Malicious intent: To intentionally harm someone by getting their content removed from online platforms.
Did you know how easy it is for people to Impersonate someone and file copyright takedown notices to get your content removed from online platforms? Your YouTube channels, your FaceBook pages, and even your websites could easily come under attack due to the lack of security on many online platforms and web hosting services. Using a fake email, along with actual identities, someone can easily use your own content on one platform to file copyright infringement complaints on your other platform!
Upload the same video or even the same profile photo to two different platforms, and you just open the door for criminals to take down your online content. You could wake up tomorrow morning to discover all your YouTube channels have been terminated due to copyright strikes from your Rumble account!
As things currently stand, it is a simple process to make fake identities and file enough fraudulent copyright infringement claims to literally destroy someone's online business. Places like YouTube, Facebook, and X provide an open door for people to commit these crimes, and they will do NOTHING to stop them!
One BIG problem with the current process for filing copyright infringement allegations, is that there are no requirements for the person filing to prove who they are or that they own the alleged infringed copying materials. No matter how unfounded the copyright infringement claim may be, you will be required to remove your content, or it will automatically be removed for you. You are now in the position of having to prove your innocence to a mostly automated response system!

Gross negligence is a legal term that describes a lack of care and disregard for the rights and safety of others. I think this term applies quite well when it comes to the procedures surrounding copyright infringement claims we see being employed at places such as YouTube, X, and FaceBook.
This is a list of the accounts I have lost in the past 30 days due to these false and frivolous copyright infringement complaints being made through fake identities:
YouTube Channel - Marino Manstopper Dog Training - Terminated
YouTube Channel - Cr Jines photography channel - Terminated
New YouTube Channel - Manstopper Dogs - Tetmanated
Facebook Page - Traditional Dog Training - Suspended
Facebook Pager - Marino K9 - Suspended
Facebook - Personal Profile - Suspended
Twitter - Cr Jines - Tetmanated/hacked
Website marinocanecorso.com - Temporally shut down
Website marinok9 - Temporally shut down
Website chuckjines.com - Temporally shut down
Puppy Finder Ad - Temporally removed due to 2 complaints of animal abuse
The only move towards resolving this issue has come from my hosting service. They are now working with me to stop this. YouTube has been disgustingly incompetent and negligent in doing anything about these crimes.
These are the fake emails along with the identities being used:
- Lori Berg - rockofageskennel@mail.com
Chuck Marino (Me!) - chuckmarino@mail.com
Richard Heinz - heinzdogtraining@mail.com
Edward Hodas - belmontecorsos@mail.com
H. Lee Robinson - americansentinelk9@mail.com
It looks like someone is using the services of mail.com to commit internet crimes.
Let me walk you through two cases to help illustrate the issue:
Yesterday, February 2025, I posted a poem (Crazy World) on this website as I have done for many years. I also posted the poem on my new X account. I paid for a premium X account that required me to allow X to photograph my State Drivers License and my profile to verify that it's me. The name of this website is chuckjines.com. The name of the X account is also Chuck Jines.
The next morning I received the following email from X:
Hello,
The following material has been removed from your account in response to the DMCA takedown notice copied at the bottom of this email:
Tweet: https://twitter.com/chuck_jines67/status/1891104742127890858 - Crazy world https://t.co/I1esAM0j4q
Here are the details given by whoever this person is impersonating other people to file fraudulent copyright infringement complaints.
My original intellectual property (copyrighted poem titled "Crazy World") is on my website: https://www.chuckjines.com/crazy-world/
The X post below has my copyrighted poem title "Crazy World" and a link to my poem taken from my website and posted in the below X post:https://x.com/chuck_jines67/status/1891104742127890858
I own the intellectual rights to that poem on my website and this X account owner does not have my permission, rights or license to post it. I am requesting X under DMCA to swiftly remove this copyright infringement. This is not fair use because this X account and the post is for commercial purposes.
Name: Chuck Marino
Address: 2 Marietta Ct. Edgewood, NM 87015
Phone: 5052501425
Email: chuckmarino@mail.com
Someone is using my pseudonym, Chuck Marino along with my old phone number, the address of a package-receiving service that I use, and a fake email using mail.com services, to file a copyright infringement complaint. They are claiming to be the owner of my poem located on this website, and that MY X account is in copyright violation for publishing my poem.
You would think this wouldn't have made it through the review process, seeing how obvious this isn't a legitimate complaint.

This take-down notice from FaceBook over my profile image doesn't even tell me where the original photo is located. I have the same profile image on my FaceBook profile as I do on my X account and my Rumble account.

These are videos viewed by the support and legal teams on YouTube. In response, YouTube upheld the fraudulent claims and TERMANATED my third YouTube channel!
@TeamYouTube What are you doing?
Whoever is doing this was so clever, they were able to use videos from my Rumble account to bring down my YouTube channel, even though both channels and all the videos are mine!
Impersonating someone to file a copyright takedown notice means falsely claiming to be the rightful copyright owner of a work and using that identity to submit a “takedown” request to a platform, demanding the removal of content that you do not actually own, which is a serious legal violation and can have significant consequences.
Key points about impersonating someone to file a copyright takedown notice:
Illegal act:
Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), only the true copyright holder or an authorized representative can file a takedown notice, making impersonation a clear violation of the law.
Potential consequences:
If caught, the person impersonating could face legal action, including lawsuits for copyright infringement, damages to the falsely accused party, and potential criminal charges depending on the severity of the case.
How it works:
A person might impersonate someone by using their name, contact details, and claiming ownership of copyrighted material that belongs to the other person to submit a takedown request to a platform like YouTube, Facebook, or a website hosting company.
Why people might do this:
Malicious intent: To intentionally harm someone by getting their content removed from online platforms.
Competition: To try to gain an advantage over a competitor by removing their content.
Misunderstanding: Sometimes, people might mistakenly believe they have the right to file a takedown notice due to a misunderstanding about copyright laws.
What to do if you suspect someone is impersonating you to file a takedown notice:
Contact the platform:
Immediately reach out to the online platform where the takedown request was filed and explain that you are the rightful copyright owner and the notice is fraudulent.
Gather evidence:
Collect proof of your ownership of the copyrighted material, including timestamps, registration details, and any relevant communication with the platform.
Consider legal action:
Consult with an attorney to explore potential legal options to address the impersonation and recover damages.
