Plagiarism

Plagiarism is simply the act of making someone else's work, research and ideas your own with little or no reference to the original author.
Research such as theses, projects, articles, documents, manuscripts, and papers can be plagiarized. This practice is illegal and as such can result in various damages.
Meanwhile, the goal of plagiarism is to give people a false model that they are the creators of the work.
