@cockiness is gone and @julianperretta was...
@julianperretta managed to get his account back, but last I checked he seemed to have stopped retweeting without attribution.
Twitter is really slow on addressing this issue, even though it’s in violation of their TOS.
The best hope of getting someone to stop:
Request they remove specific tweets
If they don’t (after at least 24 hours), report them.
And keep reporting them.
...
Sorry about the delays
Tumblr decided NOT to tell me when I had new messages, so I didn’t see that there were some piled up.
If you send something here and don’t see it in 24 hours, please yell at me on twitter @tweetthief.
Thanks!

@cockiness a newly discovered tweet thief
@ sucittaM gave me a head’s up about @cockiness. He’s stolen two from me that I know of at this point and at least one from @sucittaM. His tweets seem to come pretty often so expect that almost everything he posts is stolen.

Two recent discoveries:
1) Twitter lists are really handy if you have someone who is copying tweets. Just make a list which has both them and the people they are copying. Anyone who reads the list can see who posted it first.
