Linkedin Profile Copied

[SueEllen]

Go and get this bad boy.

Racist!

[OwlHoot]

Maybe linkedin itself should implement some kind of fuzzy match where it can identify blatant plagiarism

The ArXiv adds notes to some papers, such as (picking the first example I saw in a quick search) 1709.03889

Comments: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1301.4701

Usually this is not untoward, because authors tend to publish several papers on the same topic, with incremental changes. So naturally the introductions of the successor papers contain a fair bit of copy and paste from the previous incarnations.

But the damning indictment, nearly always seen against papers with Chinese looking author names (*), is:

Comments: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1301.9999 by other authors

(*) No doubt i'll be accused of racism, but I spend several hours week checking ArXiv listings and reading papers, and that has always been my experience.

Someone who I am not connected to on LinkedIn, although is working in the same domain/skillset as me, has copied parts of my job roles profile onto theirs word for word

I feel a bit of a *nob asking them to change this, so suggestions on to deal with this greatly welcomed...

Damn, I've been rumbled.

Save

There's only so many ways you can describe flipping a burger

If people on here know who you are get them ALL to endorse you for Business Storytelling, Online Marketing or something else to do with having good writing skills.

Make sure you tell them exactly what to endorse you for, and get a few of them to comment about your CV.

Meanwhile let us stalk them...

You can be quite scary sometimes, SE...

Cheeky bugger!

How did you find out?

They are a 3rd line connection and their profile came up which I just happened to have a look at.

The cheek of some people !

Why would you feel like a nob? If you can prove they copied you then (a) ask them to amend and (b) see if there's a way to report it to LinkedIn as a copycat account or such like.

Either that or tell us who it is and we can all stalk the person?
