*

 

Hello my dear Steemians and Art Fans,

 

This post today was a result of investigation that was called by one of the user who noticed repetitive behavior of certain users and that they misusing the opportunity of curators in # Newcomers' Community.

 

 

We also would like to call @steemcurator01 to have a look into Newcomer’s community because many simple users now referring to us, as an Investigators of Deception cases.

First of all let’s go to @jamesabby blog

Deception case 1: Art Plagiarism

Of course it was not his original drawing, it was taken from this website:

Deception case 2: Art Plagiarism

original drawing

 

 

---

Deception case 3: Art Plagiarism

---

 

 

The Original work is from that website:

 

 

In his introduction post he mentioned the names of the users @paulyoung and @unyimeetuk who are drawing themselves and it would be interesting to hear their opinion about this Art plagiarism:

 

 

And this is his statement, that he received an Upvote from SC03 that is triggered by @tarpan

 

 

Despite of this Statement he posted multiple Plagiarism posts.

The same time this user posted 6 times Achievement1: Introduction Post and received twice Upvote from @Steemcurator03 triggered by @tarpan.

 

 

And that is again the same post 3 days ago, upvoted by who? Of course, by @tarpan who used again @steemcurator03. Despite of that even other accounts downvoted the user SCo03 has not removed his one.

 

 

As you may know that the Curators who are using @steemcurator03 account produce weekly reports about Achievement and this user is on such list in the report of @sm-shagor from 2 days ago:

 

 

But yesterday the same curator @sm-shagor produced a list of plagiarists and who is the list of course already well known user:

Deception case in Newcomers’ Community @desibaby

For this last post the user has 0 in payout but not because she was not upvote but because she was downvoted. What do you think who Upvoted this post? Yes, it was @tarpan

 

 

Why so many abuse cases in Newcomer’s Community?

• Too many curators that is why users often overseen
• Curators not visiting the blogs of users but simply curating their posts in the Community Page
• Many users producing the same posts multiple times receiving support from @SCO03 account
• Many Plagiarism posts are not checked therefore, the users misusing the Community curation accounts

 

 

As always, faithfully yours we are Guardians of steem,

@stef1 and @myskye
