Wow, I have also heard about this issue SPAMMERS

[dkbit98]

Did anyone notice recent spammers posting same line of text multiple times in different topics:

''Hi! Wow, I have also heard about this issue! Thanks for such valuable information!''

So far I noticed few members doing this, I reported them to moderators, and they are obviously owned and controlled by same people:

simple999 - woke up after being inactive since 2019, and he posted same sentence two times.

Hi! Wow, I have also heard about this issue! Thanks for such valuable information!

belford11 - woke up after being inactive since 2019, and he posted this one time with one post about Elon Musk and Twitter.

Hi!

I would say that this can also be considered plagiarism. Same text posted by different (we accept them as different users if they are not marked as alt) users.
Certainly, moderators could ban those accounts because of plagiarism, I believe that this is a better solution than just deleting the disputed posts

Good point!
First member to post this was stupid sentence was belford11, so that means that both simple999 and investorss can now be banned for plagiarism.
It's only few minute difference between this post but that is enough and it proves they are all controlled by same person, maybe they are part of some paid group getting ready for promoting new scam.

All these accounts were registered on the same day, January 09, 2018.

I have dig their posts and I found those accounts high likely controlled by one person since they're spoke Russian and do paraphrasing, I hope those accounts will be banned very soon.

The forecast for the end of the year that Bitcoin will reach $ 29,000, and Ethereum's capitalization will triple. The Finder site conducted a study based on the growth of 12 digital currencies and the comparison of 9 participants in the industry's blockbuster. According to their forecast, the growth of ETH will be 212%, BTC - 194%, and the third place Bitcoin Cash with 123%.
Kevin Lou, co-founder and strategy director for the Hong Kong company CryptAM, said that Ethereum has very good growth prospects, but at the moment the network needs to solve the problem of scaling. CryptoKitties, a game with digital kittens that allows you to acquire and breed crypto pets - something that hinders the development of the ETH network. In the near future this issue will be resolved.

Bitcoin to top US$29,000 by year’s end while ethereum may more than triple, survey finds Traders and asset managers say ethereum has bright future as investors and start-ups see it as the “go-to blockchain ecosystem”. The cryptocurrency ethereum is likely to see a bigger increase in market capitalisation than bitcoin by the end of this year, a market survey has found.

Consumer product and services comparison website Finder’s survey of nine blockchain industry participants on the price trend for the world’s top 12 cryptocurrencies found that ethereum will see the biggest increase in market cap, at 212 per cent, followed by bitcoin at 194 per cent, and bitcoin cash at 123 per cent.

The largest Foxpt exchange was forced to stop its work for 72 hours because of a simple error that allowed to conduct a crypto-currency transaction twice. As a result, the exchange lost about 30BTC (270 000 $) because of dishonest users.
Officials commented this in such a way that the error was detected when users duplicated about 130 output operations. Immediately, the exchange was transferred to emergency services in order to stop withdrawal of funds. Some attackers have already returned the withdrawn funds, other warrants for withdrawal will be suspended until further investigation.
The exchange was not hacked. The amount of missing funds can not affect the activity of the exchange and users will not lose their balances.

Original

Foxbit, Brazil’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, has been down for over 72 hours, reportedly because of a bug that allowed its users to withdraw their bitcoin balances twice. The problem saw the company lose a total of 30 Bitcoins, at press time worth roughly $270,000.

Through a livestream on YouTube, the company’s CEO João Canhada and COO Luís Augusto Schiavon, revealed the bug saw its users take advantage of the exchange’s withdrawal system to duplicate 130 withdrawals. After realizing what was going on, Foxbit immediately launched an emergency maintenance mode to halt withdrawals. The maintenance mode reportedly corrupted some of its service providers’ data.

Per the company’s executives, data is now being restored, and Foxbit should be back up by March 14. Through a blog post, the cryptocurrency exchange informed its users that it wasn’t hacked, and linked back to two cold wallets to show their funds were safe.

Let's not get paranoid. If it goes on like this, "good morning" will be treated as plagiarism ..
This is a text that has no value whatsoever, so it cannot be treated as plagiarism.

no one here is paranoid. This is not a good morning post, the construction of the sentence itself is the usual spam garbage.
I would say that this is the case where one of the additional tools for automatic posting is obviously used. organized spam is yet to be expected from this user

[crwth]

Could these be accounts that they just registered and never used? Or accounts that are inactive and spam with likely passwords and be unlocked? Could that be possible? Is it like having it stored and using it once they have used or made a bot or something?

Yes there is no doubt that they are controlled by the same person.
almost a similar case and one I still vividly remember when @Stalker22 quoted a shady member's post, under the pretext of GPU mining with solar power and batteries.

Two accounts have already been banned.

Surely the fact that they were banned for copying. And since someone noticed that these accounts are Russian-speaking, I assumed that they could also contain plagiarism. I wasn't wrong. Using Google Translate, translated from Russian into English with the help of a translator, without indicating a link to the source.

The Bangkok Post informs that the Government of Thailand does not plan to ban ICO and crypto-currencies, but rather intends to introduce additional legislative regulation.
Haтпopн Чaтycpипитaк has told, that now it is planned to bring out for discussion two royal laws regulating questions кpиптoвaлют. According to the Ministry of Finance of Thailand, the projects contain tax issues, or rather set the collection of taxes to 15 percent on profits from crypto assets.
In addition, the Government of Thailand will put forward demands, mandatory registration in the relevant bodies, all persons carrying out business in the digital world.

Yes, I noticed 2 minutes before you

I would say that this can also be considered plagiarism. Same text posted by different (we accept them as different users if they are not marked as alt) users.

I don't think it counts as plagiarism (that's why I didn't report it as such), because it's obvious they registered at the same time and are most likely alts. So I don't expect Mods to ban them for this, and spamming often gets a lot of leeway.

I have no idea what they try to accomplish: fishing for Merits?

What do you mean it's not counting as plagiarism?
He literally copy pasted exact same text and posted it with at least six of his accounts, and that is definition of plagiarism.
I can remember some pervious cases in forum when some members did something similar with copying old posts from other members and posting it as their own, they got banned later.

Since these accounts posted the same text one after the other, mods could see the bigger picture and ban them for plagiarism, but this is only for this particular case.
In some other case, this text was of generic nature, and we would not call it as plagiarism. For example, if you search the bitcointalk forum for "Thank you for valuable information", you might get hundreds of such sentences and we cannot ban them only because this text is similar.

I tried to understand Loycev's point.
Since you accuse those accounts of being alts, then the next accusation (plagiarism) in my opinion is contradictory as long as you found plagiarized text only from this circle of accounts which are considered to belong to 1 person. It's just a repetition of the post, but that doesn't mean it doesn't violate forum rules (other than plagiarism).
What I understand (in the perspective of the forum), plagiarism is youre copying posts that are not your own (personally) without its source. cmiiw

[LoyceV]

You can't plagiarize your own work.

Actually, that's not the definitiont. Not all copying is plagiarim.
By definition plagiarism is presenting someone else’s work or ideas as your own. If they're alts, it can't be plagiarism. Just a regular shitpost.

We don't know they are alts either, it's only suspected based on the registration dates. But I understand your point. And since they haven't been banned yet (except two accounts for a different case), the admins seem to agree with you as well.

It wouldn't be the worse thing in the world if we see a thread in Meta with someone asking why his priselive or paymentbit21 account got banned. On the question are the other accounts your alts, he says no! In that case, it would be plagiarism and copy-pasting.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

all three accounts also register to the forum at the same time. yes, I believe all three accounts are controlled by the same person.

Yep, that's a dead giveaway.  Maybe this moron has a very limited English vocabulary or something (lol).

Actually, looking at the usernames, a couple of them look familiar to me.  I haven't checked their post history, but the owner is probably a spammer who quit the forum after the ICO boom went bust.  Why he's returned is anyone's guess, though I'm assuming he's trying to rank up the accounts (or at least gain activity points; there's no way in hell he's going to earn merits).

What do you mean it's not counting as plagiarism?

You can't plagiarize your own work.

It's not plagiarism, plain and simple.  This has been discussed in Meta before if I'm not mistaken.  Whether anyone thinks otherwise or not, I very much doubt the mods would do anything if someone reported this--although since there are multiple accounts involved, that complicates the issue.  Obviously there's one person behind these posts, but if the mods really wanted to ban a few of the accounts they'd technically be justified in doing so.

[LoyceV]

I don't think Admins have been involved If two of them are banned, all that's needed to get the rest banned is finding evidence of ban evasion. If they've copied text from a banned alt it's even easier: if they're alts they deserve ban for ban evasion, and if they aren't alts they deserve a ban for plagiarism. Win-win!

[dkbit98]

You can't plagiarize your own work.

So you are saying that I can create alt account and post exact same sentences or posts, and this won't be considered as plagiarism?  
It's not like he or they invented that sentence, so this can't be considered as ''his work'' and you don't have any solid proof showing that one man is holding all this accounts.
I remember one member (I won't name him) was deleting his old topics, than re-posting them again later, for this he was criticized a lot.
Wikipedia definition for plagiarism is saying that even using other people language, thoughts and ideas can be considered as plagiarism.

[Pmalek]

I don't think Admins have been involved If two of them are banned, all that's needed to get the rest banned is finding evidence of ban evasion.

If they reused the same addresses or social media accounts in bounties in the past, that shouldn't be too hard with Ninjastic.Space.

So you are saying that I can create alt account and post exact same sentences or posts, and this won't be considered as plagiarism?

If the account is a known alt of yours, I don't think that would get you banned. But it probably goes against rules such as spam and low-effort posting. Low effort because all you are doing is copying your own posts and posting them again. If no one knows the other account is your alt, it could get banned if reported and admins decide that's the correct punishment.

Wikipedia definition for plagiarism is saying that even using other people language, thoughts and ideas can be considered as plagiarism.

Yes, but the emphasis is on other people's. Stealing other people's posts, ideas, thoughts, etc. If those accounts are alts, they aren't taking anything from other people.

This community is large enough to detect different account managed by one person..i should portray that it's while people are categorically spammed and taught it's not easy to detect them with that, for the creation of the different account same time, i will say it's easy for opening of five to six account to be create same time, the easiest way to detect multiple accounts user is determine by connectivity of the account with it's transaction.

[Apocollapse]

Not only a spammer, one of these accounts promoting ponzi scheme 7.8 to 17% Daily ROI 🟢 BNBPrime.finance lol. I'm confident enough all the accounts controlled by one person, if you check the last active from each accounts, it's around 11:00:00 AM - 11:15:00 AM and only have few minutes differences.

Still I don't see any reason why someone should spamming in this forum, does he already live like a king and shouldn't worry about money?
