Many professions result in you requiring to use information online to help you with writing a paper or an article for example.If the author doesn't cite his or her information and they post there document online they could be accused of plagiarism. The consequences for plagiarism are a ruined student reputation, lose of academic reputation, destroyed professional reputation, legal repercussions, monetary repercussions, and plagiarized research.
Ben Carson wrote a book called "America the Beautiful" after he retired from a former career as a neurosurgeon. The funny thing is that Carson also admitted to plagiarizing while an undergraduate psychology major. But, he later went on to say that he didn't even know what the term "plagiarism" was! Carson copied information from websites and people such as SocialismSucks.net, Willard Cleon Skousen, and William J. Federer. The even funnier part is that he wasn't charged with anything, but he did lose quite a few fans and some credibility but nothing too substantial. The website I used to gather this information.
