Warning: Mass Art Plagiarism @steembouns
Hello dear Steemians,
Yesterday I was reached by @rahul00 that is one of the new acocunt on Steemit that is fighting Plagiarism and revealing the fraud. He was concerned about a user @steembouns who posted few Art posts in WOX and after his search found a match that is why I wanted to let our Community members and remind you again that such things might happen and please be cautious.
If you look around you notice that this user created his account in 2020 and initially posted his Introduction post. He is according him from India and here is the snapshot from the acocunt.
Once again, not everyone who revealing their names and posting achievement posts and verifying are then complying with the rules of not to do cheat.
The account initially posted in Korean community and language, in Games and food.
But recently, decided to do some art but in you look in his hobbies there is no mentioning of art at all.
While copying the posts of other user, @steembouns have not noticed that he did nto amend the text and in greeting wrote:
- Hello Hivers
That was a reason why, I went throught his Art posts in Hive too and here what was found:
At the end of her posts you can see all the social media addresses:
There are last posts that the user completely copied and pasted also he cropped the part with original Author signature.

I dropped an Instagram message to and that was the reply from user:
As I mentioned @rahul00, already notified the user and doing great job in detecting Plagiarims.
We will ban him from WOX community and I will notify the user on Hive.
Да, бесконечная история воровства...
Бдительность нашн оружие.
Молодец @rahul00!
Thank you 🙂
Это никогда не кончится, но надо сказать что в нашей коммунити был тихий период когда не било плагиаристов какое-то время.
Хорошо бы не затишье перед бурей)

Thank you for supporting anti-abuse post.
Thank you for this post @stef1...I removed my vote...plagiarism is so annoying.
Thank you, I saw it also in the past and was surprised with such quality of work but unfortunately, was cheated. Thank you for removing the vote.
We have to make war on these usurpers, good job!
Cheers
Thank you for reading. Actually there are many more such users, but we noticed not many of them because we are not really looking for them. But you can imagine if someone will dig into and check for abuse.
Downvoted his/ her last post and muted.
Thanks for sharing.
Resteemed.
Thank you for doing that, hope that will bring his reputaiton down, thanks for re-steem
Great job @stef1 @rahul00 👏 I do remember seeing the ladybird post actually. So unfair when some of us work till late and start early improving their writing, photography and artistic skills whilst others just choose to be busy copying and pasting. I believe that your post shows to others that it is impossible to steal somebody else’s art and creativity and just live happily ever after.
Thank you
I hope the user will get it as a lesson, but as it often is such people will come back with something else. Unfortunately they can create another account for free and start from beginning.
Good!
Thank you!
As a fellow artist, thank you for taking this seriously. No one wants their work stolen. Either make it yourself, recreate something yourself that is allowed, or get permission to use others work. No one likes a cheater.
Thank you for your opinion and for sharing it. I believe those people never being on other side and had anything stolen like they do with others. Because if someone had such experience he definitely will not do it again.
That never stops. Great job.
Yes, that never stops, they change names and start again, actually there are many identical attempts on other blockchain too. Internet makes it easy for such people.
