As an Excel blogger, I feel happy when my blog posts got shared, reposted, quoted, referenced etc in a proper manner on any platform. As most creators expect, a proper manner includes sharing via proper sharing functions, such as Share in Facebook and YouTube, Repost (formally known as Retweet) in X, or any form of explicit citations about the source. That’s a fair expectation I believe.

Nonetheless, I found two of my posts got copied and posted by the following account in X yesterday.

You can see my original post here:

As you can see, that’s a word by word copy without citation of sources, nor my prior consent. Is it an act of stealing?

I replied that post once i saw it, leaving the link to my original content.

You know what afterwards? I am blocked by that account.

Don’t make me wrong, I am not interested in following that account. I just wanted to see if there are any other contents of mine being posted there as if it’s his… or as if I am posting there as part of that account.

I HAVE NO RELATIONSHIP IN ANY FORM WITH THAT ACCOUNT IN X.

My dear readers, if you happened follow that account in X, and see any of my (or any others’) contents being posted there without citation or credit given back, may I kindly ask you to leave the link of the original contents by leaving comments there. Really appreciate your time and effort!

I enjoy sharing Excel tips and tricks via blogging, videos, and posts on different social media. I am happy if you find my content useful and you share with others, but please do it in a proper way. 🙏🏻
