I am so sorry to learn of this.Continue being you and remember that grace under fire is what sets you apart from the thieves. I will miss hearing you say, "ditzy tulip". I don't know why but each time you said it, it warmed my heart. I LOVE your new name and the meaning behind it. You have a continued subscriber in Linen-Bloom-Heirloom. Hugs from the US! PS ... if you want to set up any kind of a petition to get Udemy to listen more quickly, count me in! I'm sure your loyal subscribers of the real YOU will feel the same!!
sorry to be off topic but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Shiloh Juelz i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
What a bloody pain in the bum for you having to deal with all of this, can’t believe what some people are capable of, so annoying. Love the name change Mel, it’s you to a tee. I love that you really take care and think about your makes, your attention to detail is amazing. It’s about quality and not quantity 🤗🤗🤗
I adore linen too! Nothing is as comfortable. And heirloom-wonderful sentiment to make things well that will last! I wish everyone would embrace natural fibers and end all the synthetic fiber pollution. Subscribing both here and Instagram!
Outrageous that Utume would not treat you with more respect. So unprofessional! I wonder if you might need a solicitor to handle the matter, perhaps filing a suit might get them to sit up and pay attention. I love your new name regardless Mel - love it even more! I always love to see what you're up to :) Have a great holiday season!
Hi Kathleen, so pleased that you like the new name 😊 sadly I couldn’t pay for a solicitor to deal with this as I make very little from my creative work. I am going to contact the legal line of my works union though to see if they can help at all 💖💖💖
I'm so sorry you're having to deal with all this. I hope you are successful in getting it sorted out soon. I love the new name. Linen is also my absolute favourite fabric and I happen to make embroidered samplers which I hope will become heirlooms so your channel sounds right up my street. Good luck. X
I like the new name and your new sewing philosophy -- which is exactly what I have been pondering (Alabama Chanin types of things are next), and I also love linen most of all. Sorry about the reason you had to change. There should be a way to stop that kind of fraud.
😢 I'm sorry about what you had to go through, I love your new business name. It been a while since I've watched your videos, I'll be looking out, Thank you ❤
Thank you so very much, I really hope that is soon as I am getting everything together to start making some for my grandchildren for easter gifts, Pam from Oklahoma.
I am so sorry this has happened to you. Please share how you are able to resolve the issue so we all can support you. Best of luck with the new name and I believe it describes your channel, yourself and purpose beautifully.
Hello, I am so sorry for your troubles. I am a professional seamstress as well and love linen, I am also a master gardener so I love blooms, and I collect anything heirloom to do with sewing, so your new name is perfect. I am learning to make the little jointed and stuffed animals which is how I found you. Your part one tutorial is super perfect but i can't find the 2nd part, can you please help me with this. I wish you all the luck in the world with this horrible situation and keep on sewing, Pam in Oklahoma.
Thankyou ☺️☺️☺️ I’m afraid I haven’t finished my little elephant yet, so you haven’t missed part 2. The video didn’t get many views so I moved onto more dressmaking. You have prompted me to get him finished though and I’ll film as I do ☺️☺️☺️
It's a beautiful new channel name Mel but I am so angry and sorry for you as to why you've had to change it. I really hope you get to the bottom of it all but I can imagine it has caused you some unnecessary grief! Xx
I'm so angry someone has done this to you. I love this new name. I actually didn't follow you on Instagram because of your own name. "Ditsy" anything irks me hahaha. But now I will follow :)
Thanks Melissa ☺️💖 Ivfewl much happier with the new name, I hadn’t really thought too much about the other meanings of “ditsy” then soon after I set up a blog one of my friends asked why I was calling myself ditsy 😂
Oh Dear! That is awful. What a horrible thing to do. Some people just have no conscience!! I do hope you get it sorted out Mel. Meanwhile, your new name is great and your little intro tune is still there, so we're all good....hahaha. Mx
Can’t believe that this has happened to you, what a dirty rotten thing to do. Hope you get this sorted Mel, but I do like your new name, although it doesn’t quite roll off the tongue as easy as Ditsy tulip, but I’ll soon get used to remembering. It’s an age thing😏xx
I am so sorry this has happened to you, makes me angry that someone could claim your work and steal part of income stream that should have been yours. I love the new name, persevere on your creative life, you are such a talented woman!!!
Great name Mel. Is there anything we can do to help with the Udemy fraud? My sister is a creative also and she has had people steal her books and sell them online. It’s a real down side to this ‘easy access world’.
That's so sad Mel. Tghey should ask you both to send a video in saying a specific phrase. Obviously they can't coz they're not you. So they'll have to take the videos down and you take them to court. Trace them with IP address. xx
I can’t believe how difficult it’s turning out to sort. When I contacted them to say I wasn’t prepared to fill in the form with personal details, they basically said the fraudster has a legal right to know their accuser, yet when I asked for their personal details they declined unless I get a subpoena issued by a U.S. District Court. Sadly I can’t afford to get a lawyer to support with it 😔
It's so sad you've had to change a lovely name because of someone so despicable.However,I love your new name and as I know it's you I'll continue to love your vlogs.I'm shocked Udemy have asked you to supply information that will be passed onto the fraudster surely this is illegal?Could skill space help as they are stealing from them too.Also could you contact the fraud squad in the police as their making money fraudulenly plus they could check to see if your name is being used in other ways.I'm not sure how skill space works but if you have to pay tax has this affected you?.I hope you will find all the support you need .I'm sending a massive cwtch (hug) from Wales x
Thanks Maureen so pleased that you like the name. I think that some of the issues are due to udemy being an American company so it’s dealing with different laws, they have replied to say that “by law” they have to have my personal details to pass onto the infringing instructor upon request, yet they can’t provide me with any of their details unless I have a subpoena issued by us court (whatever that is)? It’s bonkers! Xx
I just went onto the review and reported the reviews as abuse "This is a fraudulent course stolen from the real Mel from Skill share Udemy take this course down now. “. A small thing but maybe if they get enough their algorithms will pick it up and report it somewhere!
I’m really sorry that someone of your class and talent can’t be secure in your artistic license. And that they pass your info to a cyber criminal? There are a lot of ways to hack and imitate people, but I guess it only really becomes a crime when one profits from it. Therefore that means the new to me company is propagating this persons crime. That is unconscionable! Best of luck taking care of Mel.
@@HandmadeByDitsyTulip I’m glad to hear it! I wish you’d be able to end that passing of the info situation. I feel that because my bank account has been hack four times in the last two years and it’s the worst to feel things are happening and that you have no control. I’ll be thinking if you. You are the only one that should own your art. It’s not one of those situations where a you feel compliments, because someone else got 1,000 + sales because your course is so good. Shaking my head darling, really. Wishing the best, and happy holidays,🥂🎄
Good luck with getting this fraud taken care of! I am pretty shocked that the "other" are actually helping the fraudsters not ligit owners of these blogs/vlogs.
Sorry to hear what that fraudster has done to you. Everything about this is so wrong, especially Udemy sharing your personal information with the fraudster and continuing to profit from the fraud. I do like your new name and I wish you the best from Colorado, USA.
Mel, that it terrible and such a bad approach from the company that you are trying to sort this out with. Hope you get a good result from them in the end
I don't even know what Udemy is but whatever - everyone should boycott it and help to close it down. Absolutely unacceptable that they want all your details and would then pass them on to the fraudster. They should be helping YOU - obviously they have no integrity.
Isn't this call intellectual piracy and can be prosecuted under UK law, if they live in this country? I think a trip to a specialist lawyer is in order! Good luck xx
Unfortunately it’s an American company which makes it very difficult as they have different laws which seem to protect the fraudster more than the victim 😔
It is such a terrible theft to use your hard work and charge for the 'privilege'. I hope you can bring this person to book? She/he must have made such a lot of money from this scam. It makes my blood boil when I hear it has happened to such a lovely person as you. And those people who have been taken in. What happens for them? Surely they won't be able to get proper support. So angry.
How awful for you, it must be so disheartening. Never mind the poor people that have bought the thing! Love the new named skill share not check these things

Thankyou, linen is so lovely isn’t it 💖💖
I'm so sorry you're having to deal with all this. I hope you are successful in getting it sorted out soon. I love the new name. Linen is also my absolute favourite fabric and I happen to make embroidered samplers which I hope will become heirlooms so your channel sounds right up my street. Good luck. X
Thanks Judith 💖💖💖 oh wow that’s amazing. I’m planning on doing lots more embroidery too ☺️
I like the new name and your new sewing philosophy -- which is exactly what I have been pondering (Alabama Chanin types of things are next), and I also love linen most of all. Sorry about the reason you had to change. There should be a way to stop that kind of fraud.
Bless you Mel, these people are just the pits. I hope you don’t let this get you down. Lots of love. 😘😊❤️

Thanks Marie 😊😊😊 next I need to change the wording on my intro clip as that still says ditsy tulip xx
Good Luck Mel with getting this fraudster off the airwaves in your name. Linen is also my favorite fabric, followed by silk.
Thankyou Jorja 💖💖💖
Can’t believe that this has happened to you, what a dirty rotten thing to do. Hope you get this sorted Mel, but I do like your new name, although it doesn’t quite roll off the tongue as easy as Ditsy tulip, but I’ll soon get used to remembering. It’s an age thing😏xx

So sorry you have to put up with that evil fraudster and hope you success at nailing them. ♥️

Goodness - so sorry to hear about the fraudulent use of your name and work. Good luck!
Hi Mel...so sorry about the bad guys.
Thanks Julie 💖
Hi, sorry this has happened to you. I love the new name. I really hope you get somewhere with this fraudulent person. *
Thanks Kate 😊💖
This is awful Mel, such bad people out there. Hope you get it sorted soon. Loving the new name x
Good luck with getting this fraud taken care of! I am pretty shocked that the "other" are actually helping the fraudsters not ligit owners of these blogs/vlogs.
It is very sad. I know it will always happen on the internet, but it shouldn’t be so difficult to sort it out xx
I'm so happy to have found you again. I was wondering why I wasn't getting your your tubes.. Thankfully you found this out..Absolutely awful.
Can you ask Joe Lycett oh I mean Hugo Boss to help?
Wouldn’t that be amazing 😊😊😊
There should be an organization in the UK they could be reported to.
Can SkillShare help at all?
Unfortunately not, I did reach out to them (seen as it got pirated from their site) but they said I had to deal directly with Udemy 😳
Good luck with getting the fraudster taken down from Udemy.
Thankyou Candice xx
Sorry to hear what that fraudster has done to you. Everything about this is so wrong, especially Udemy sharing your personal information with the fraudster and continuing to profit from the fraud. I do like your new name and I wish you the best from Colorado, USA.

Sounds like Skillshare needs better security for their creators, too.
So sorry it happened. Have you spojen to Trading Standards as its fraud?
Its a crime. Ring the police!
I have contacted the police too x
Have you contacted a lawyer? They may be able to help.
Absolutely dreadful of them! Love the new name however 😊
Thanks Wendy xx

Thanks Maggie. I would hope that anyone who purchased it would get a refund but I really don’t know if that’s the case as I’ve never used Udemy 💖💖💖
Is there not something the authorities can do or lawyers? So sorry.
this is awful.I am so sad for you.Don't hand on any of your personal details to anyone though. Take cars.Love Susan.x
How awful for you, it must be so disheartening. Never mind the poor people that have bought the thing! Love the new named skill share not check these things
Well quite disgusting. I’ve not heard of udemy. Can you not get some help from skillshare as it’s clearly not good for them either.
