Academia-Research.com hires writers for intentionally deceptive MasterPapers.com, which is owned and operated by Yuri Mizyuk in Ukraine.

Hi,
I've been freelancing for 12 years and am working for A-R now. For 3 months there were no payment delays, but let's see in a future...

I cannot agree. My experience has been different. They have a lot of orders. But they cringe to pay, cut corners, cheat wherever they can. At the same time, they are not blatant cheats like so many other companies I can name. I wrote for an American company and after accepting all the essays, when the payment time came, they simply put me out of the company. Academia wants to be in business; but do not mind losing a writer even for as little as $40. If you give any reason that you might stop writing for them, they do not make your last payment. Most of their writer live in India and Pakistan and some of them write quite well. Please be careful about your payment.

Freelancer posts good things about a known fraud and has only one post on the forum. Hm...

MM, I think you'd be better off listening to Frostat.

Also, I can add: All those people, Jessica, Olivia, Sean, James, John, Melissa, Linda and many more have Chinese accent. Now, I am not suggesting even for a moment that a person from non-English country should not run a business or should not write. I am only saying that people leave and go, and the next person who replaces him, takes his name and you don't know with whom you are dealing. Sometimes, it is like talking to people with amnesia, as they simply don't know what happened earlier, despite having the same names. It is all very confusing.

Getting the payment out of them is very very difficult. Please work for them only if you don't get a job anywhere else. Essay standard is nothing great either. You have to be very careful. The moment you get an email saying: "Sorry, billing company very busy. There will be delay in the payment this month" etc. you should stop writing till you get your salary.

Having said that, I also can add once again that they are not blatant cheats, just dodgers if they can get away with it and want to continue essay writing.

This is tough trade, pal!

Hey,
my first experience was very tough as they say wire transfer was not available till 100$ limit had reached...Wanted to get rid off first... The payment did arrive, but with some delay due to bank, as they said. All is going well till now...

thanks guys just wanted to know about the payment details, its so difficult to trust anyone in this business

THIS IS WHAT I MEAN. THIS HAPPENS VERY OFTEN AND THE PROMISE AT THE END IS USUALLY FORGOTTEN:

Payments: Payment Delays

Dear Writers,

Due to certain technical problem, which had occurred with the processing of the payments, we are experiencing a slight delay with the issuing of compensations for pay date of March 10, 2008. As of right now the problem has been fixed and we are currently working on the issuing of your payments. Before the end of the day (March 13, 2008) all payments will be set to processing.

Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconveniences caused by this delay. We would also like to inform you that most of the payments for the pay date of March 25, 2008 will be issued in advance as a compensation for this delay.

Sincerely,

Administration
Academia-Research.com
tel: 1-646-810-8655

I am also awaiting my payments, the administration will call and message ruthlessly to get the work done on time. But when it comes to payments area, they simply wont address the messages like we writers were a smelly pig.
We are the ones who do the hard work and burn our night PCs.
What the hell!!

Jaspreet,

Agreed. You receive rude messages and calls for the work; but no reply for the payment enquiries. All these companies live off our hardwork.

Yes mike.. i had been working with academia. Its a great site.

Academia-Research.com is fraudulent, and I have years' worth of evidence to prove it! Try searching in this forum and elsewhere.

Richard,
only god knows what they are upto.
I feel so helpless at the system right now. i do not want to work more, all the motivation`s gone. I have sent back all my work and waiting for my payment. I am being ignored.

They, after cheating many times earlier, still owe me money and any correspondence about payments goes unanswered.

keep trying and pinging them frostat.
But afterall, they will have our deepest most heartfelt sorrows which will stick with them like bad omen.(it is as told in our culture, anyone who occupies the money of someone else`s hardwork pays back it in diseases and medications.).
But i know they dont care a bit, they will know what i am talking about now.

Dear Jaspreet,

I wish it would really happen!

The American company which cheated me when I was dying for money, Project1stclass that cheats all gullible writers, and even Master papers....Coming to think of it, Project1stclass people should be bedridden for another sixty years with terrible pain that cannot be controlled by any kind of painkiller....... I am finding it very uplifting and hilarious. Sorry to be morbid. Still it is nothing compared to the hurt they inflict on others.

Thanks for brightening up my morning.

haha. frostat, hilarious it is for me too.
But am too hurt like other writers.
I as well as all the writer community is not against any company that follows strict ethical and professional behavior reinforced with humane concern as well as air of belongingness for everyone. This freelance field can become very productive if everyone comes together and work in harmony and with honesty.
God keeps us in every situation in life to teach us something about life.
(i think god is now saying to get some physical job and just not sit idle on a PC ;P)

one advice more frostat. please think about the name of the company for which you are applying. If it not completely reflects the image of the company, it gives atleast a weak idea behind the company`s brand value.

What American company cheated you?

Perhaps you are right. Will do that. Still, one cannot avoid the humour in the situation, however annoying it is.

Lavinia, it was an awful experience. I have erazed them from my mind. But I can dig it out if I go through old files. It was something like essaywriters.net or essayrelief. I will let you know soon. Give me a few days.

Thanks Frostat, I'd like to know b/c I haven't heard of any writers having problems with companies based in the U.S.

As an American, you might not have. But if you were writing from Britain like me, or from any other country, they know that you are helpless. Even Academia, which still owes me money, is supposed to be American.

They pay in dollars. I will definitely let you have the name. I was keeping all the depressing details; but deleted quite recently. I am sure the name will be there somewhere.

You must ask Asian writers. They will tell you how often they are cheated by American companies.

I think that part of the problem may be that these fraudulent companies lie about being American, Frostat. At least, the ones that you have mentioned so far, like EW writers and Academia, are NOT American, despite the fact that they lie to consumers and writers about being American.

I'm not saying that it's not possible that you got cheated by an American company, but the ones mentioned so far are frauds that are not in the U.S.

If a writer does get cheated by an American company, I'd be happy to do what I can to help them pursue ways to get paid.

Lavinia,

Thanks for that offer. I will keep that in mind.

I can understand a company rejecting essays that are badly written and not paying. They too have to survive and cannot pay for rejected essays. But I cannot understand companies not paying when the essays are accepted by the customer and the company. Recently Academia sent messages to a writer, who is my friend, that severe complaints were received on two essays and they cannot pay. This is despite the fact that the message from the customers say how happy they are and those messages are still on the board!


You could be right. Academia takes people only for their American branch and pay in dollars. So, naturally we assume that they are an American company, as they say so. This particular company, who was Ok for one or two years, is steadily troubling writers now.

People, people, people . . . . I don't understand why writers do not simply conduct an investigation of a company PRIOR to submitting an application. I have already provided extensive evidence in this forum that proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the following:

1. EssayWriters.net (BestEssays.com and SuperiorPapers.com) is based in Ukraine, and owned by Yuri and Olga Mizyuk.

2. Academia-Research.com (MasterPapers.com) is based in Ukraine, and owned by Alexey Vitchenko (former partner of Yuri Mizyuk).

3. EssayRelief.com is based in Pakistan.

All three companies are proven frauds.

No American company would do such a thing. Disgusting.

While I agree with you that perhaps these companies are lying to us and continue to do so through their sites, claiming to be American/British companies, I cannot agree that no American company would do such a thing. There are good and bad people/companies in every country.

Anyway, it is not important. What is important is finding good companies, write for them for a start and become excellent research writers. I am not particularly proud of the job I am looking for. But right now, I do not have a choice. Eventually I would like to write research stuff.

Until I see proof to the contrary, I stand by my statement. Don't you think that if I were wrong that EW_writer or similar cronies would have shown proof by now?

Frostat, please ask the Asian writers. As I said earlier good and bad companies exist everywhere. It is not a national slur. I do not like to get into your evidence/proof business. Even reading your unending conflicts with EW etc. exhausts me and usually I skip it.

Funny, I addressed you as Frostat!!

Our ridiculous names are hilarious and confusing both!!

hi writersbeware,
why not start our own writing company.??
if we can network together all the writers.

I am an Asian writer, and i dont think that the tag you have put on them is totally justified, although acceptable to certain extents.
People from here tend to bite off more than they can chew, and they f**k up with it. However others are persistent and hard working like any writer in the world. I am sure there would be such writers among the US and UK writers also, and for the record, it does not count for the writer reading this message ;P.

I cannot see anything wrong in writers from non-English countries writing in English. All that matters is the hard work and the sincerity. I am sure the language and knowledge will improve with time and serious work.

That's hilarious. Working as a PROFESSIONAL WRITER IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE is not a paid apprenticeship! You can't learn-on-the-job and intentionally FOOL unsuspecting customers into footing the bill! Customers aren't paying for YOUR self-enrichment! If you want to "brush-up" on your English writing skills, take a freaking class!

Customers are paying for SEASONED, PROFESSIONAL, NATIVE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WRITERS. Stop lying to them and ripping them off!

Don't know about heaven America. Here in humble Britain, I have met many writers, who belong to different origins, but write as proficiently as any British writers. Their accent could be different; but writing skills are superb.

I am deeply hurt with all these scams. :( I'm actually getting anxious about Allwriting.net. You can read my store here: http://www.essayscam.org/Forum/14_342_0.html#msg6631

I don't know why other people would do these to you. The least thing that they could do is try to be honest if it's getting harder for them to pay up. As for me, I really wouldn't mind waiting for some time before my payment goes through, as long as I'm assured with it. I don't want to be left hanging at all.

ya i did and it is a scam i have worked for them for three months but they never pay! they use to say customer is not happy or the paper is plagiarize and they dont even provide proof against all this........... dont waste ur time working with academia-research.com .......... they are damn...............
