Bitcoin Forum

Hello.
I’m Vietnamese translator, you can find my portfolio here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1esVxzocUhDUYgpjFEHQ8PsaT4AILlK_IhiHZTOGs58s/

Cheater name: Hang Vivian (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1381990)

My first topic: ANN of QUICK PROJECT (https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?topic=45858.0). Created on: September 03, 2018
He uses my translation with some editing text: Link (https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?topic=45912.0). Created on: September 04, 2018

Today, I found a cheater, he stolen my translation, with some editing text.
And all the image paths that he uses in the topic match the image I used.
You can see the video I recorded, in case he deleted it.

Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFAA9ZP_BLw

Looks like a pretty solid plagiarism to me. Even his image link is the same as yours, just like you said.

Have you contacted the mod on Bitcoingarden? I think he deserves a ban.

I forgot that. Thank you for reminding me.

You can just report those threads with appropriate comments and proofs soon the scammer will get ban if he did plagiarism.

If that takes time he might deserves a red tag until that,hope some DT will tag him soon.

He plagiarized, punishable?

He plagiarized in other forum so it has nothing to do with this forum so I don't think moderators/staff here will do anything.

Remaining only DT can tag him as untrustworthy meanwhile. Anyway I have already tagged him.

please, I'm accepted to be translation, not him

You carries fire in one hand and water in the other.

and I don't understand, why a translator do not be accepted still do it ?

So please explain, why did you start translate while you are not accepted to do it ?

so, can you let everyone here know, why you translate ? I don't see your name on accepted translators ?

as the picture @Hang Vivian provided, can you show proof that you received that task from project's team or from project's BM ?

What am I missing here?  Is it even relevant whether OP was accepted to do the translation?  It looks like he did it and then Hang Vivian stole it--though I don't speak Vietnamese and can't totally verify the theft myself.  What it appears is that he created the page first and it was copied a day later.

I don't hear Hang Vivian mounting any sort of defense against this.

Edit:  No answer to my question, so I assume either he doesn't understand it or doesn't have a valid defense.

Hey, You can see https://t.me/Bounty_Support_Group is Bounty manager of this project.
I'm part of the management team, which is why I translated the QUICK project.

Is there a way to punish such plagiarism? must take measures to prevent this incident.
And I also often encounter cases others took my bitcointalk account to participate in other bounty programs.

Please report them with evidence as I did.

There is, and already applied here. Permanent ban.


There is no other way to do this except you have to report that case to the BM. Unless BM changes the way how to participate in a campaign, such as providing proof of authentication, then there is no way to prevent someone use your account and steal your work while providing their own address.

I don't think that it would be applied here since he copied from other forum and pasted on other forum. I think bitcoingarden staff already carried out an action since I don't find the thread that was plagiarized there.


I think proof of authentication by posting tweets, shares link is good way to verify but it is something that spams the thread a lot which is not good IMO. Plus it is of no use if there are careless managers who choose rather to count everyone in and skip some hard work over checking and verifying work and eliminating cheaters.
