Apologies if this article's a mess. I ended up in the WYSIWYG editor and it didn't go well for me.

When you sign up to an upvote service, it makes sense to publish plenty of content. So when you start to struggle, why not scour the web for something that you can pass off as your own?

How long @murliwala has been doing this for, I don't know but his methods are cunning and dare I say, creative.

The articles below are from Hindi, Russian and English sources. One of the Hindi articles is even behind a paywall.

I've highlighted @murliwala's most recent 8 articles but unfortunately, I've not had time to crack the most recent so I must leave that one hanging.

Thanks for these.

Tagged all of those pending payment.

Please note the author has added "This article is inspired by" since getting caught.

That's a new angle...

"This article is inspired by"

How do you think that sits in the plagiarism spectrum?

"Inspired by" implies the use of ones own language. CTRL+C followed by CTRL+V followed by "Google Translate" is about as inspired as the drawing of a cock in a notebook.

Haha. This analogy just cracks me up. Been seeing a bunch of these lately. Even the ones I reported yesterday did the same. Went on to edit their original article, sitting the source somewhere in the post.

Thank you. The analagoy was created by myself, inspired by my time at school drawing cocks in other people's work books.

Yeah, don't get too fooled by some of them - more often than not, the source is in the original article and the lazy plagiarist copies it without noticing. Achievement 3 tells them how to cite copied content appropriately.

If you start to analyze in the area of the newly created post, you will notice a number of new accounts committing plagiarism, but something that has intrigued me in my little time on the platform is the number of accounts that justyy creates, which are given votes with booming01 accounts. . here are some accounts created by him.

  • appleactor
  • zambino79
  • joyceok
  • shadowtgrm

I do not know if these accounts are committing plagiarism since I passed the publications through https://www.duplichecker.com/es it does not give me any indication of plagiarism.

I understand that Justyy works with the Steemit team, but doing this kind of thing I think influences the reward pool.

Sorry by my English is that I use the google translator, sometimes the translator does not express exactly what I want to explain.

justyy provides a tool for existing users to create additional accounts - like this one so that my personal profile isn't purely about plagiarism.

I think if there's some focus on the accounts that are new and get big upvotes, especially when not publishing in a community.

This is the most obvious example - obvious abuse of the booming01 account but caught too late to do anything about.

It is never too late to stop the abuse, they still have time to pull justyy's ears even though I know he is not a child he knows what he is doing.

If he gave an explanation why he is doing this kind of thing, it would already be up to others to determine if what he is doing is okay.

I think the topics are very educating, it will enlighten our fellow steemians and also broaden our research IQ

I have a question.! What does your comment have to do with this publication?

I think that if the publication were read, I would have a conscious idea that commenting, doing what you did is considered SPAM.
