I was quite surprised to find two of mine there (one anon, one with name, none authorised) I checked a few of us. So far I've found fics from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
saras_girl, lumosed_quill/traintracks, digthewriter, writcraft and phoenixacid, birdsofshore, alisanne, vaysh, torino10154, dysonrules, dracogotgame, disapparater, alby_mangroves, smallbrownfrog, emansil_12, icmezzo.
I'm still checking the names of my flist, but better check yourself.
They seem to pull fics and people randomly and sometimes they take the anon fest versions from AO3, so check for titles also. I even found covers (for Sherlock fics) and some podfics bymab.
As you can see here AO3 knows about the problem. Fics from other sites than AO3 (ff.net) are affected as well. Wattpad might be too. Better check and send them a DMCA takedown notice.
ETA:strikeouts are not needed.
I've found some more:iwao, inell, lightofdaye, khalulu, germankitty, lomonaaeren, lokifan, lordhellebore, nherizu, roelliej, sylvaticginger, taradiane, who_la_hoop, zeitgeistic.
