Title: Wallchain - Plagiarizing Content
Post by: holydarkness on January 06, 2021, 07:44:04 PM
What happened: Plagiarizing content for their ANN thread - They don't have WP and website yet.

Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2770259
Scammers Website: TBA
Scammers ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5307255.0 | archived (http://web.archive.org/web/20210106191509/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5307255.0)
Scammers Whitepaper: TBA
Plagiarized Source: https://magazinemi.com/what-are-the-benefits-of-the-internet-for-individuals-and-companies/
Additional Notes: As they don't have WP or website yet --they said they'll launch it soon--, there is no way to what extent they plan to plagiarize, or whether their published WP will contain plagiarism or not. Nonetheless, at the very least, this thread raised to point out the fact that the ANN contain an exact copy and paste paragraphs without crediting the author.

Like directly copying content of someone's material without crediting them? And with this you admitted that you deliberately plagiarizing materials from magazinemi? Will the whitepaper that's yet to be published filled with these copy-and-paste paragraphs too?

The best thing you would have done is cite the source in your publication whether it's the official white paper or not. When you just copy and paste from other sources without giving credit where due, it shows how your project is not serious and untrustworthy.

Only part of it was copied by their project so it can be said not completely. Did this do a full copy after their website and whitepaper was launched?
Then what is their goal of promoting in this forum if everything is not ready?
I just suspect from any project that does plagiarized from wherever it will be a bullshit project.
I wouldn't consider this a legitimate project without providing a source from another.

Given you took an effort to change one or two words --not paraphrasing, just switching words-- on the original article to suit your next paragraphs better, I'd dare to say you have full intention to plagiarize the article and claimed them as yours instead of a "common post" if you didn't caught in action.

Nonetheless, I'd like to see how the whitepaper looks like. When can we expect this document to be officially punished?
