This is a cross-post of this StackOverflow post. The high volume of questions on varied topics over the last day or so had me wondering.

It appears you are copying questions from StackOverflow/StackExchange, posting them here, and then stealing the monk's replies, which in several cases use the first person, and posting them back as the user "irshad jm" (SO, SE) without crediting the original author. Just a selection:

Plagiarism is not cool.

Update: Thanks to swift action by other monks and the people over at SO, the situation seems to have been dealt with. For the sake of completeness, here is the full list of posts (some have since been removed from PerlMonks and/or SO/SE):

For cleanup, I propose reaping those nodes with no useful replies, and for those nodes with replies, adding an edit that says something like "This post was copied from StackOverflow" plus the link from the above list. choroba was kind enough to link the SO posts back to PerlMonks. hippo also replied to some of the above nodes with a link back to SO.
