Yes it is sad to say...
I wrote a post just yesterday... with an original quote that I coined and published and have had published within my industry.
So I expounded on the quote a bit more and posted it for those interested on the Steemit platform.
Here is the original post: https://steemit.com/life/@kyusho/if-it-is-in-your-mind-it-is-only-theory
Then along comes @mahbubalam
He posts this on my blog as a reply:
[-]mahbubalam37 · yesterday
This post recieved an upvote & comment from mahbubalam. If you would like to recieve upvotes comment from mahbubalam on all your posts, simply FOLLOW @mahbubalam
He then copies it verbatim, minus my signature or even credit...
It was not re-steemed as many logically and ethically do, no he just used it as his own...
Here is my reply to his comment:
May I ask what your process is in stealing posts from other sources as your own?
This was created b on my blog this morning, yet I see it hear under your name, not re-steemed, but as your own property.
I am not alone,
this individual is stealing from many people, taking the credit.
This can not be allowed as it ruins the platform and steals from those that put in hours, weeks, months and years to add to. We have the re-steem, but theft and fraud needs an answer... as it may be your material tomorrow.
So what recourse do we Steemit Users Have?
What are your thoughts?

I've helped to flag his post to zero value. The community can deal with such issues if they are made aware. I see someone tagged it as original to get help from some bot.

Ugh I hate this because it's unjust and best way is to expose these individuals so others can spam them and they loose their posts

Expose we did, it is hard to tell where the other posts came from to help them.

I see @mahbubalam has a rep of 13, so will never get anywhere here at steemit.
The last time I saw something like this I sent a messsage to @steemcleaners and the next day the account was at -13 hehe, Didn't even know it could go that low.
Cheers

I just went to @steemcleaners then picked a blog and commented the site I wanted to expose. I asked for a better way to contact them but got no reply.
They are probably on discord somewhere but I never checked.

it seems to be very bad like copy & paste, people working hard to write a blog and some theft it easily, there is no short-cut way for success, block or flag them,
thanks for awareness.
