What do you think should be done when someone plagiarizes?

If contacting the writer doesn’t work, you can always send a cease and desist letter. To do this, ask the person to take down the plagiarized content. Make sure to include a deadline and explain what the consequences will be if they don’t do what you’ve asked (for example, taking the writer to court).
