Hello my dear Steemians and Art Fans,

 

Once again we are here with the post to reveal a cheater who cheated in many different communities and did it so well that only now with the help of @axeman, our Professional Photographer who is running the contest and who felt suspicious the submissions to his contest and started to check and here we are, there is a heavy Plagiarism.

 

@gracembabazi

 

First of all, let’s look at the introduction post that was issued in October 21.

Such cute young girl, nobody can think that this is a heavy Abuser and she is studying accountant

Mass Plagiarism: @gracembabazi

 

This example shows that we should not trust a cute your girl and trust that such person, who is studying Accountancy can be Mass Plagiarist.

Despite of having few real and normal post we still should check up if the users will raise any suspicion, lately she started posting using #club5050 that luckily did not received an Upvote from @steemcurator01

The user is already been told why she is downvoted and received a label of Plagiarist.
Once again we all have to work together different communities and moderators to work against Plagiarism.

I don't understand her actions and condemn her! There are a lot of interesting things around us, including nature, people and architecture. Let's learn to see the beauty in the surroundings and create author's content!
Well, shame on this lady!

It is difficult to believe and also to understand what is making people to lie. There is so much we can talk about, write and with help of modern smart phone nobody can say that it is too expensive. It is very affordable. But still some people choose cheating.

together we fight plagiarism.. 💪💪

Everyone should be aware about the potential abuse that can happen in any community and also on any social media.

Greetings friend @stef1

It is strange that I could not find this image at the time, maybe I trusted your previous vote, I'll keep an eye on future occasions.

Thanks for always following up.

That is the same with us, the user made it clever alternated diary posts with the stolen images and poetry. That is definitely a high level of trick. There are obviously many moderators from different communities caught on this mistake.

That's right, something new and creative, we will have to be more closed then, we must not be beaten in this fight.

Thanks for presenting this report on this user. I gave her a call and talked about it. She feels guilty about her wrong actions and she promised to change by acting honestly from today forth.

Unfortunately, the call from 8 days ago didn't sink in - https://steemit.com/hive-185836/@gracembabazi/r3j3jz - followed by the "promise to act honestly"...

the steemcurator04 and my country representative @yohan2on has corrected and mentored me on what should be done and what shouldn't..

I will ensure to only post pictures taken by my phone or my camera like av been doing with other posts...I really, honestly and sincerely apologise for any convenience and once again thank you...

I appreciate that some people are slower learners than others but this post indicates that she's being deliberately deceitful having already apologised for doing so, and promising to change her ways. She continues to apologise whilst plagiarising other people's content, in the knowledge that it's wrong.

She's not sorry for plagiarising and trying to deceive us. She's sorry that she got caught. Again.

“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, shame on both of us.”

Unfortunately, her words are too cheap ... they are just a bunch of sounds ...

Shame on my grays ...

May Allah give awareness to people who steal other people's property,

Unfortunately, we too are finding plagiarized photos in our photo contest. We are taking steps to eliminate them and check them all.
But what an effort ...

That is like fighting weeds, once you think that everything is done there will be new growing quickly. That usually happen there where contests and Prizes to win.

Greetings @stef1,
