RE: Fighting Abuse on Steem: DECEPTION and PLAGIARISM: @shohel02
There are many of such users, we mostly concentrate on those who are posting in our community. The user, might be using the images from other source. The investigation is very time consuming, because we need to check everything, every single image and compare who is original user too. That user never posted in World of Xpilar and I see that he is mostly using #steemit, that is why maybe the Steemit team will be interested and may spend time for investigation.
The posts that he got upvotes, he is using @boomerang, that is service when people can buy Upvote from bots, so he is paying for it his own Steem.
The fact that there are many such users here on Steemit is very sad and very, very discouraging. At least for people who post their own self-created content. I understand your position and point of view but it would be more reassuring to be on this blockchain if there was at least one team, (hopefully this team is @ endingplagiarism, as @grecoloco wrote) that cares for the cleanliness of the platform.
And no, this user doesn't only receive votes from bots, he is being upvoted also by normal accounts. But you are right, I have to contact the people in the corresponding community.
Thank you for your time! (btw, I wrote you an email, because this was the only contact I found on your profile). Now you can disregard it.
