The answer is gone. We should probably give the member a second chance, as they only joined today, and it seems to be a relatively common mistake for new members.

This question: Android application crashing issue[^]
From this member: Kyle Flores - Professional Profile[^]
Contains a "bad link" - it goes to a CP 404 page.
But... The link looks very suspect to me:
https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/1166959/[DELETED].com/NerdDigest Looks like he's trying to link to his site and failing? Or hiding the URL in a bad link?
Any thoughts, chaps and chapesses?

He's got four other questions with no obvious spam in them. I think a warning is probably sufficient this time.

Slimmed the site down by one spammer.

What worries me most is that it isn't a copy-paste - it's a copy, paste, and tweak to hide the origin. There are words changed from the IBM version, and a couple of paragraphs missing between the search text and the code block. And the origin links he gives don't go to IBM at all, but to his site (where it still has no IBM links).
And the IBM version is clearly marked with their copyright.

Yes. I saw those things too.
What convinced me is the code samples however... There would be some common between code samples explaining the same thing (like $(document).ready in jQuery samples), but here it is a simple copy-paste, even sample data is the same, although the common date-format in India isn't the same (for instance)...
I think it is very sad, that someone who apparently has some knowledge turns to plagiarism...

It makes you wonder how he got his MS MVP, yes...

And the other things? have you checked?
Such pals usually don't copy only once...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
