        Simply put, yes it's a problem.

        How to fix?

        First, What is the purpose of having those 4 domains with the same content?

            The idea of having 4 sites with the same content and layout is just to have the different country extensions right ? suppose it means you can geo target each of them in webmaster tools,

            If you are sticking with this i would take a look at setting up Rel=Alternate then to let google know,

            Hope this helps

              If you are going to have the exact same content on all domains, stick with the .com and 301 redirect the rest of the domains to the main domain.

              If you are willing to invest in different content for each domain, then you should have no problem. Just be sure to put the hreflang tags in the header of all the sites, so Google knows that they are related:
