hi has anyone written for Academia Research?

Exactly.

Would anyone knowingly hire a painter whose own house looks like sh*t? How about hiring a chef who gut busted for violations of sanitation codes? Those hires sound almost as ridiculous as one KNOWINGLY (emphasis on "knowingly") hiring an unqualified, ESL amateur to write one's doctoral-level, English-language dissertation. NEWSFLASH: It doesn't happen, folks!

The ripoff sites from Ukraine and Pakistan ROB consumers of the power to KNOWINGLY choose.

Hello,
I am the latest victim of academia's fraud. They just cheated me of almost $300. I have two Phd's and now I have imbeciles like the freaks at academia accusing me of plagiarism right after one of the customers specifically asked for my services for another one of his/ her assignments. And eventhough I regret being cheated whats worse is that they branded my work as plagiarism and after umpteen attempts to get in touch with them asking for an explanation or proof ; I get nothing.

Plz dont work for them

That is their way of life.

I now have my own negative input. My last two customers supposedly claimed my papers written were non-relevant. I was not given a chance to defend myself. They just arbitrarily fined me. After receiving 6 positive feedbacks and a bonus for one paper I wrote. Who knows...I think all my papers were good. I always receive high marks when I wrote. The two customers in question demanded the impossible. I put as much as I could into each paper without any input from them and both of these papers needed input - and yet...I'm the one who gets the fine. I'm done with them and I'm done with dumb students who claim to be trustworthy, ethic and honest - yet they pay total strangers to write their papers for them. This whole thing made me feel creepy looking at topics about ethics in healthcare, christian values and employee motivation written for students who may one day be an administrator of healthcare or a christian church or a government office.

You can't be sure if the students showed unhappiness or not. Academia is quite capable of posting messages in students' names. Highly unethical company. Anything to cheat the writers.

Still I am grateful that despite having my details, they never published it or wrote to my university, unlike Peter of Writemyessay.co.uk.

Serene,
What was Peter's purpose to expose you? Were you a writer or a customer?

And yes, I was expecting them to come up with these flimsy excuses. It is really laughable the reasons why they fined me. Anyone with a grasp of English could see that I was having difficulty getting the customer to respond to me. I finally took the paper and made up a bunch stuff as if I were in college and enjoying the diversity of my classmates (which was partly what the paper was about: whether the student was getting the education promised by the university and whether it was consistent with the mission of the university - how would I know - unless the student gave me something to work with?) I sometimes take papers at cheap rates to build up my writing scores but this customer wanted me to write 3 pages for the cost of 2 pages and even at that I only got paid 6.00 per page. I was at the 400+ mark for making money - I'm guessing it's about 500.00 when academiaresearch.com starts screwing their writers.

Neither. He did not pay a student-writer for a good essay and I wrote here about it. He published her details, wrote to her university and threatened to go to the Press, although for the life of me, I couldn't understand what he would have gained. Argued that essay belonged to him, whether he pays for it or not. Writer refused to publish it here thinking that the student might be harmed. We write about many companies here and none behaved that aggressively.

Update on academia-research.com
Do you know I found one of my customers (one of the supposed complainers). He told me that he had paid them 300.00 for the paper. They offered the job to me 120.00. With the 96.50 fine they put on my payment...can anyone do the math on their profit percentage?

I think it's time to start publishing all my papers on the Internet - to expose those creeps.

I wrote a paper on finance for a student of Brunel UK through a middleman. That guy took the money from the student and did not pay me. I feel so pissed. Posting the paper is not an option because the student will get screwed :( and the person who scammed me will not be affected. ggrrrrhh

Exactly. This was our predicament too.

Yup, WB is right... i have already had bad experiences with them (Academia). BEWARE!!!

Hi - I wrote for academia research for quite some time. i didn't have problems with their behavior, in fact there is no behavior with writers, you log in, take the work, do the work and get the payment. in most cases payment arrived on time although there were one or two delays and such. i have nothing to prove that they are fraudulent, i always took work that paid above $11 perpage, I don't work for lower pay. my experiences have not been bad but then there may be other writers with bad experience with the company....my advice is as long as you write well and follow instructions they will pay you on time. just don't take up the assignments that offer low rates per page and maintain a standard, no matter how desperate you are for money.

Where is Academia Research based out of?

I find it very hard to believe that you do not know how to use the search function.

isnt yuri or olga mizyuk the same one from writers.ph?

I'll start this by saying that I no longer write essays on a regular basis because the industry is oversaturated with frauds and criminals, but work has been slow this week so I decided to pick up a couple of essays over at Academia-Research, just for something to do. From past experience, I knew that they usually pay their writers small amounts without much trouble and that their phantom deductions usually appear when you've completed a large amount of work. It seems as though their "Thank You" for your hard work is to make up some reason to fine you.

Anyways, the essays that I completed this week were mostly just for fun, but it quickly turned into a somewhat stressful situation. Basically, the customer's directions were not thorough enough and his or her attachment did not work properly, which led to me not having the correct information. That is fair enough, as things happen sometimes and it should not have been a big deal. Well I have since received countless phone calls and messages from them, basically telling me that there will be consequences if the revision is not completed within an hour. There's no way that I'm going to write a second essay for a single fee and I have told them as such and the response that I received, in broken English mind you, was that the situation will get worse for me if HR is forced to get involved.

I'll admit that I have been stoking the fire, so to speak, as I want to see how outrageous their threats will get, since I'm not interested in a long term relationship with them, but these people are ridiculous. Now, I knew what I was getting into, so I'm really not surprised, but I find it laughable that this company tries to pull of these types of scams. Like, am I supposed to be scared by their threats? I can laugh about this situation because I am not relying on them for an income, but I feel incredibly bad for people who do need this money to pay their rents and their bills. I have been in a situation with a different company where my large payment never came, so I would advise everyone to research every company that they work for thoroughly because the warning signs are always there.

A legitimate company will stand behind its writers because they know how difficult it can be to find an educated and reliable writer. That is one of the main things to look for in an employer as unless your work is absolutely horrible, is plagarized, or you have blatantly ignored instructions, a good employer will take your side in any dispute because losing a good writer is simply not worth it. Academia-Research will hire absolutely anyone, so they are not worried about keeping people around long term and, therefore, will get what they can from you and will eventually screw you over.

You hit the nail on the head!

no, not the same owner. They were partners at one time but fell out a couple of years ago. A-R and EW are separate entities but both are scammers

academia research looks like another scam.

The papers from this scam site can be purchased in mightystudents online.

Beware!

Most companies sell the papers after 30 days of giving it to the student. Very dangerous!

You know it takes a few hours to get subpoena and track your IP address to your home address? What would you tell the judge if he asked you: "You claim site X is a scam. Show me THE PROOF or you will go to jail for defamation." Are you ready for jail time?

Most likely, they are the same company.

Now we have direct threats from Stu4, proving once again that he is directly associated with the fraudsters.

An absolute defense against a defamation claim is truth.

Another defense is that one is informing on a matter of public interest for the protection of the public good.

The verifiable evidence about MightyStudents.com and associated sites is available in many different places from many different people, including this forum and through an investigator's blog. If anyone has questions about a particular site, I will be glad to publicly direct you to the verifiable evidence, if any.

You have problems understanding the meaning of the message. I wrote if "site X" - do you have any evidence on "site X"? Maybe "site Y" or "site XYZ"?

PS. You can call me an investigator too, or even a Senior Investigator.

I'm not even following this thread but have to respond to this stu4pidity: Defamation is a civil cause of action, not criminal. "Jail time" isn't an issue. Judges don't ask anything in that acusatory manner, either; the "defamed" party has the burden of filing the case and proving it, not the judge...and as WB points out, truth is an absolute defense to most types of defamation including this one.

While it might take a criminal prosecutor only "hours" to get an IP address, to do so in a civil case requires filing your case first and then going through the discovery process, not "hours."

P.S. Good luck with that lawsuit there, Sport...err...I mean Mr. Senior Investimagaterer.

Stu4: I would like Academia-Research to track my IP and take me to court if they can. They are fraudsters and deliberately misrepresent themselves. I have the evidence and it'll stand up in any court. A-R can bring it on if they can. They are fraudsters, scammers and liars ....

Right on!

Exactly. Plus, what Stewy obviously does not understand is that once a foreign entity files a lawsuit in a US court against a US entity, the foreign entity and its assets immediately become subject to US jurisdiction. As the embarrassing ***** suit proved, countersuits against the plaintiff can and will result in at least $700,000 in monetary compensation, banning of all of the plaintiff's 555 sites from all search engines, and ownership transfer of all 555 domains to the defendant.

Then why did you HAVE to sell essayfraud.org? LOL And changed the ET's warning page not to show any connection with ET that started EssayFraud.org? Because you were afraid ET would be banned too> LOL

You must watch a bit too much Twilight Zone.

#1. You have no proof whatsoever to prove any of your accusations, because such proof does not exist.

#2. At no time have I had any ownership in Essayfraud.org. In fact, court records 100% prove that I have nothing to do with that site! Don't get me wrong—I absolutely loved that site and was extremely disappointed to see that it was sold. The fact that you continue to accuse me of owning and selling that defunct site proves your utter lack of credibility and desperate need to discredit me via any means necessary.

Thank you for confirming that "I"=EssayTown :-).

What? Dude, you don't even make sense.

For the sake of argument ... what if she does? All it goes to show is that she's done a damn good job. Whatever any may say about ET, the fact remains that it is a solid website, gives customers their money's worth (there will always be a disgruntled few and they tend to shout the loudest but that does not make them right) and is SUCCESSFUL. Success isn't born out of nothing, you know ...

I have, over the past few years, dealt with them (ET) as a seller. Were I to compare them with A-R, I wouldn't know where to begin ... how can one begin to compare honesty with dishonesty? Or how about talking with Admin personel who speak and understand English as opposed to ones who (try as they might) really can't.

And just to make my position clear - I don't hate Academia-Research, masterpapers, customessays.co.uk, essaycapital, ma-dissertations ... I abhore and detest them.



I won't say site X, I'll say:
Academia-Research, masterpapers, customessays.co.uk, essaycapital, ma-dissertations defraud customers and writers; they act in bad faith and do not deliver on their contractual obligations (both verbal and written); they knowingly engage in the promotion of their services through false claims. And I have more then enough evidence against them - evidence accumulated over years as a premium writer on their site. Having said that, I would very much like them to take me to court for defamation. AND you do not have to go through the trouble of obtaining a court order and tracing my IP ... you know who I am and if you are in doubt, just ask me

Beware of Academia-Research I have been cheated recently. They are the great bluffers. In the beginning they are smart in paying but gradually they start fleecing money by different tactics, by imposing fines and then when you demand for your monet they terminate your registration. Please be aware of these cheaters. Oh! the cheaters.

Despite your linguistic limitations, Academia should have paid you. They should have paid because they took you on despite the fact that you should not be writing in English and then compounded their crime by assigning you work.

When I was working as a writer with Academia, I took up the revision for 2 of your works ... horrendous doesn't begin to describe the experience. I found it easier to just redo it from scratch.

Now - before you decide to dispute this, maybe I should tell you that I have pdf screen shots of every single order board I ever worked on, including the two I picked up from you. They contain your messages to the clients and their replies - everything.

Having said that, I still believe that you should have been paid as Academia did assign you work despite your multiple handicaps.

I am sorry for coming across as harsh but I really cannot wrap my mind around the fact that just about anyone is seeking employment as an ENGLISH-LANGUAGE academic writer. It is precisely because of this that many EXCELLENT ESL writers are getting a bad rap.

does WritersBeware actually have a job writing for any of these companies, or did they quit to find a lucrative career posting repetitive vitriol on message boards?

:) just curious

Welcome rustyironchains from the Ukraine. Maybe you can answer a question - why is such a high percentage of the scammers in this industry from the Ukraine? It is getting as bad as the Nigerian bank scam letters. Do you not have laws regulating criminal activities - scamming, cheating, etc. do constitute criminal activities in most every country.

Does anyone find it rather curious that rustyironchain from the Ukraine (it rhymes!) signed on today and posted 3 anti-WB messages?

So, are you with A-R or with EW? Both have mastered the art of scamming ...

You beat me to it, OR!

yes, I'm the Ukrainian boogeyman, here to whip you into a froth of misguided post-cold-war nationalist rabies.

haha. I'm from Canada.

anway, no one answered my question. I'll have to guess-- unemployed. how else would they have so much time to waste?
