+I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice. My name is [private], and I work for Teifi Digital. We are a leading Shopify Plus agency, working on building unified commerce on Shopify through apps, integrations and workflow improvement. I am the [private] of Teifi Digital and am writing this message on behalf of the company that our source code has been shared on the GitHub platform without authorization as a form of blackmail.
+
+**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed. If possible, include a URL to where it is posted online.**
+
+The copyrighted work is the source code of WorkMate, a Shopify App that serves to bring work orders, purchase orders, and more ERP/IMS functionalities to Shopify Admin and Shopify POS. The original repository is located at [private]. The person that is spreading our copyrighted code briefly had access to this repository while working for Teifi Digital. The person in question was dismissed as a result of fraud on his part (in particular, lying about his country of residence), after which he began threatening to distribute WorkMate. This has now materialized, previously only the frontend component was posted at [private], which was subsequently taken down, and now the full repository including git history and branches has been uploaded at https://github.com/workmate-pos/workmate. It is an exact post of our repository.
+
+**What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.**
+
+https://github.com/workmate-pos/workmate

+
+**Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/guide-to-submitting-a-dmca-takedown-notice#complaints-about-anti-circumvention-technology">Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology</a> if you are unsure.**
+
+Yes
+
+**What technological measures do you have in place and how do they effectively control access to your copyrighted material?**
+
+Employees will go through an extensive screening procedure to validate their country of residence for all future remote workers.
+
+**How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?**
+
+The employee had lied about his current country of residence, and operated out of [private], instead of [private]. We had to fire this person immediately.
+
+**<a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/dmca-takedown-policy#b-what-about-forks-or-whats-a-fork">Have you searched for any forks</a> of the allegedly infringing files or repositories? Each fork is a distinct repository and must be identified separately if you believe it is infringing and wish to have it taken down.**
+
+Yes, we are continuing to monitor this situation as more repositories pop up.
+
+**Is the work licensed under an open source license?**
+
+No
+
+**What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement?**
