Unfortunately, https://www.geni.com/people/Ian-Levine/6000000042805291790's fabricated tree has been imported numerous times into Geni. It is time for us to clean it up.
Among the people who have unwittingly added his invented profiles are: Private User, Michael Golden, Ryan Lesnick, Private User, Private User, Haim Katz - Hachoen Wartski, Private User, Jacob Samuel Barkin, Private User, Wayne Scott Harvey, Private User, Daniel Aronov, Robert Philip Schulberg, Dean Kagan, Dr. Stephen Michael Strudwick, Robert Josephson, Private User, Private User, Guy Khmelnitsky, Yoseph (Yossi) Rusinek, Sanford D. Minkin M.D., Jessica Helen Hirshorn, Dain Muller
Profiles added by the above-named people and profiles with the name or location Kukliai are all highly suspect. The tell-tale sign of the fabrications are the pre-1800 profiles with birth years (often without death years, meaning the birth info must not be from a death record or tombstone, which are normally the only possible sources in the areas where these people are from). Some of the profiles have imagined photographs. Obviously this all pertains to profiles that have no documentary evidence attached. When in doubt, just ask in this discussion at https://www.geni.com/discussions/279050?msg=1700489
What we all need to do is delete as many of these fake profiles as we can. Ask for curator help here in this discussion when you need to sever relationships and are unable.
The fabricated tree is rather ingenious in that he managed to tie numerous families together into an inter-woven tree with many connections to each other, ultimately leading back to various famous documented families like Jaffe or Rapoport. We need to sever the relationships to these valid trees and then delete or isolate and delete as many of the fabricated branches as possible.
