I showed that video (well, the first couple of minutes of it) to my photography class tonight and made that comment to them. I'll not be surprised if he takes that video down soon.

That's an interesting question, is it slander or libel if you publish a video defaming someone. Either way it would be hard to defend against as the evidence has been published...

After you shut this crook down, perhaps you should offer pdf versions of your out-of-print books on your own site!

That's exactly what I was going to write as well. I've seen this done with several different books/audio files, etc.: fake promises of a desired resource without one actually available. I've never figured out what was the ultimate purpose: malware or ad-click-views (or maybe a credit-card-related fraud, as Mark R. has mentioned.)

Re: Well this was annoying - re someone is offering for free PDF of my first book, Sign Language
as Mark said in one of his posts, there probably isn't a PDF to download of the book -- there certainly isn't a legitimate one anywhere. The book was published in 1992 and never put into electronic form... If someone has a PDF they would have had to scan each page... selections from the book are on my web site and there are two calendars of selections.

OK, this looks bad. It appears to be a well-organized scam of some kind. Here's the page that lists your book: https://livrobook.xyz/free/register.php?id=080651356X But when you click the DOWNLOAD link it takes you to a redirect at valvemedia.com... that directs you to a different site every time!
