I own dailysatoshi.com which is a crypto news and article website that I'm working on. I pay people to write articles and in return I get to use those articles on my website. I have a few rules when it comes to articles but my biggest rule is DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! This user sent me three articles that had been copy and pasted directly from three sites.

Proof:

These are the three sites they were stolen from.

This user tried to sell me something that:

1: Didn't belong to them
&
2: They knew I wouldn't be able to use on my site

So this user just hoped I wouldn't notice the articles had been stolen from other sites, until after I had paid them.

Just got another email from them. Will update with the confession.
