e.When your reference is another work , concept is another your character even named same been in same situations , but plot your own.
eg."A walk to remember" [reference] that the girl has leukemia but no one knows except her-the guy doesn't likes her-they fall in love-the truth comes out-she dies- he reforms.
IPKKND [concept] a love story of Arnav Khushi in a hate marriage(the guy doesnt likes her) she has leukemia and tells no one when she comes to know(the girl has leukemia but no one knows accept her)...and the story continues [your plot].
A very famous case happens to be on a LOTR(Lord of the Rings) fic.
An FF writer writes a LOTR fic "Hidden Passions" on some LOTR characters.
The fic has no , absolutely no connection in any form to LOTR except for names.
This FF writer goes pro with "Hidden Passions" under the author name of "Lucia Logan."
The author changed the character names and got it published as an "original" novel.
An online reviewer, recognized large passages as copied from Charlotte Bront's Jane Eyre, and criticized it on their site.
The supposed very highly praised "original" FF writer of LOTR was actually plagiarizing a book written in the 19th century.
She took refugee under LOTR where as all this time it was Charlotte Bronte who was being duped.
The story used not only the plot, but also extensive textual quotes from Charlotte Bront's Jane Eyre.
The publisher withdrew the book from distribution.
Lot of money went to drain and so did the creditability of FF writers who have been known to have an imagination beyond the originals.
When we go with our complaints to the real world , they'll ask you:
RW:" What you wrote?"
YOU:"A fan fic."
RW:"On what?"
YOU:"XYZ."
RW:"But fan fic is breach of copyright law."
YOU:"Excuse me? Im an original , she/he stole my work.(point at the plagiarizer)"
RW:"You confessed your an FF writer , so how can you be an original?"
YOU:"I didnt do this for commercial purpose.Its my words and concept."
The FF plagiarizer: "Me too. I didnt do that for commercial purpose.I was inspired by her/him(pointing at you)."
RW:"So you , writer A of the FF will be scot free from copyright and if you go scot free same does that plagiarizer."
