I just did a search for a python problem and got a stackoverflow clone on the front page. From a few different searches I found a clone with most of them. They weren't at the top, usually after 5th place. I've also seen sites that have just copied github issue posts.

Can I have the exact query and the links to the clones?

  Not OP, but you can replicate probably very well by just copying any sentence from an SO question and pasting it into google. You will find duplicates. If not, try find a more unique sentence in that question/answer, especially with a weird way of speaking. In my example below, the tell was that legitimate NLP re-writes of the question didn't include "and do what ever you want", so including it found lots of clones. They are being intelligent now and using NLP to mix-up the content, but it's very much the same question or answers, or just the answers, or some variation of the two, or made to look like a forum with SO comments as forum replies, etc. Most of it is non-nonsensical if you try understand it. Example: "What you can do is set the FormBorderStyle property to None and do what ever you want with the form using GDI" from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11862315/changing-the-color-of-the-title-bar-in-winform https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11862315/changing-the-co...
