RE: Upvote by Venezuela
I had a similar situation with him list week. He claims to be a journalist who, for some reason, has to work through 3rd parties to publish. This is very suspicions. The situation in Venezuela is pretty dire, and I wanted to do what I could to help given his indication of his intent to use the funds for charity. I offered to assist with a more effective translation of an earlier post. In doing so, I found it was a copy of an article in El Universal. see links:
Now, it could be argued (giving him the benefit of the doubt) that he is providing a translation service to the community however, as I told him, he needs to make it very clear that it is such and include credit to the newspaper/writer. Apparently it was not important to him, because here we go again! The really sad part is that this is happening after he has received a reprieve by @Dantheman of a poor reputation score due to simular questionable actions.
My heart goes out to the people in Venezuela and would like to do something to help, but clearly given the reputation here, this is not the channel to do so.
