What's the deal about multiple 100% same job postings from totally different clients?

So, this one job just showed up in my feed:

Yet I saw it already yesterday (and even applied to it) - but it had a different job url and entire other client info:

Two different client accounts, two different job posting urls - yet 100% same job description (including "Regards, {client_name}" at the very end). Anyone knows why would someone do something like that?

Sometimes it's two people posting from within the same company, sometimes it's scammers or bots stealing and reposting job descriptions. It's not always easy to tell which, but the client's previous jobs and reviews should give you some idea. Either way, replicated job posts are against ToS so you can report them.

Should be lazy scammer just copied other job. Or farmer spamming from all own bots.
