SDN blog used by SCAM site

Hello SDN,

I wanted to share some interesting discovery I made recently. I was goggling for how to implement EDIFACT interface in SAP PI (Process Integrator). And found following site:

http://www.xmlconverters.com/customers/sap-review.html

I read it and found it quite useful, as it described almost full solution to what I need. Still there was one thing that confused me. They were offering to buy some sort of software for one thousand euros, that I sort of need. Still I could not see in solution how is this software exactly used.

Then i looked in SDN for solution and found this excellent blog:

/people/ricardoandres.maienza/blog/2007/04/06/edifact-to-xml--stylus-studio-solution

Guess what? That SCAM site has copied SDN blog and replaced:

In detail the objective of this web log is to describe how to process an EDIFACT message inside XI, using “Stylus Studio” solution.

with

In summary, the objective of this blog posting is to describe how to process an EDIFACT message inside SAP XI, using the “DataDirect XML Converters” solution.

to trick people buying their crap-ware.

So guys be careful !!!

Regards,

Reinis

Humm....Both blogs have been written by [Ricardo Andres Maienza|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.sdn.businesscard.sdnbusinesscard?u=wbfe4p9e05i%3d] So I don't see anything wrong...

But it strange they both have the same time stamp of posting. So it looks like the blog is copied completely (including the time stamp of the post on SDN).

The only thing is who did post it on XML converters?

It is just copy&paste ;D

That web site says that he is the author.

But I would bet that author himself has never ever heard of this site.

And solution described in blog has nothing to do with "DataDirect XML Converters", whatever they are.

So judge yourself...

But the blog texts are public documents. If noone copies them they will not proliferate.
