this plagiarized article is about to earn over 1k :

it is ripped from here
http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2015/11/08/think-feel-and-do-your-way-to-a-healthier-you/
and also the previous article.
https://steemit.com/aicardi-syndrome/@maria94/to-the-person-who-called-me-disturbing-for-giving-my-child-medical-marijuana
was ripped from here
http://themighty.com/2016/05/mom-responds-to-email-judging-her-for-using-medical-marijuana/

his modus operandi is the same as this dude and all of his sockpuppets:

his marjuana article earned over 2k
https://steemit.com/marijuana/@gamnama/i-do-not-want-my-children-to-know-i-smoke-marijuana
was ripped from

he has lots of sockpuppet accounts all using the same tricks and plagiarism
I unearthed many of them by just looking at his wallet:

I don't have the high reputation or steem power to shut this scammer down. hope some whale can sort it out.

Sort:  

Thank you for maintaining the justice. However, some big whales don't take the responsibility which they are supposed to.
For example, @dantheman voted most of the mentioned plagiarized articles. but downvoted my previous original post just because I used a wrong tag...

Thanks!

When you find a plagiarist, it's good to leave the link (or other evidence) in the comments so that everybody else can see it before they upvote. Or at least they can downvote if they already upvoted and then went to read the comment section.

I also encourage everybody to upvote comments where plagiarization is busted so that it will be the first comment everybody see. And of course it's good to reward plagiarizationbusters. :)

As I noted three days ago, your suggestion isn't that effective:

Here a key weakness of Steem's voting and relevance algorithm:

And unfortunately @dan's expectation is not what is always happening as exemplified in my case.

I think this problem can only be improved when account identities can't be Sybil attacked (i.e. are verified identities and the same person isn't allowed to create multiple disposable identities) and then when rankings and rewards more accurately reflect readership demand to squelch those accounts with bad reputations. To that end, I am currently contemplating that the rankings and reputation system needs to more resemble a WoT (Web of Trust).

And unfortunately @dan's expectation is not what is always happening as exemplified in my case.

Has @johnsarris edited his post? It doesn't look anything like yours.

But even if commenting isn't effective in every case, it will still help tremendously if the evidence of plagiarization is just below the upvote button. Most (real) users are too lazy to do any kind of check for the content, but can easily see the top comment and abstain from upvoting.

I am maria94 My goal was not to plagiarize. My mistake was not to add the reference and I apologize for it. I never thought this article that inspired me so much in my life was able to get many votes!

you're not fooling anyone "maria".
your account posted 2 articles and both plagiarism with no reference.
not even an intro...you got straight down to plagiarism business. like on your other sock puppets.
ofc if you blog on steemit you're hoping to make money...and sadly you are.

As you can see the other post did not have many votes!
Why are you so angry I do not understand?
If you want I can send you the money of the votes in the 2 posts!

sure. I won't hold my breath

I do not want to shut your mouth just do not want to see angry Life is too short!
What is your address to send the st?

address is the steemit nickname.
as I'm sure you know.

Ok then I will send for you the St You can continue to say it is plagiarism No problem If I offend anyone I apologize, but I will continue to add posts I like but I will have attention to add the reference! (excuse my fault)

unless you have permission to copy & paste those articles you'll still likely get flagged.
in any case you should always write:
Source: Name of Site
and link.
and don't send me anything. all your earnings here are the proceeds of crime.
