What is Plagiarism?

>The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own” *Source* "In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and using it for monetization." ![wip.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVJo7BK6UsJAnuT9qLoor5oei9s9jccM8Ksz6H5ojc96U/wip.png) Source

How to avoid Plagiarism?

Here are some examples of Plagiarism: >

Turning in someone else's work as your own.

Copying large pieces of text from a source without citing that source.

Taking passages from multiple sources, piecing them together, and turning in the work as your own.

Copying from a source but changing a few words and phrases to disguise plagiarism.

Source We can keep on adding such examples. The original content creator may takedown your plagiarised content and in some site it may lead to permanent ban of your account. Steemit is one such platform were your account may be banned if you keep on posting duplicate or Plagiarised content without citing the original content creator.
