Hi Guys,

I think is time for us to start thinking about what to do and how to action scams issues.

Can we start sharing ideas and helping each other with any information that can be useful, I think that is one the ways we can avoid these fraudulent people that turns student to the source of their income.

Thanks

Great idea! I only wish that someone had thought of that long ago. We could have made such progress by now.

I will say this I don't think there's a way to avoid paper scams online when trying to order a custom paper. Fed up about a year ago I started my own and had a team of people I personally knew. I'd still be in business if the two writers didn't have personal commitments of their own. At any rate this post is not an advertisement but more of a complaint. I personally have ordered for almost any site you can think up and have been scammed on them all. In fact all these sits claim they are legit with non-plagiarized papers and a good majority of ones I've ordered have been either word for word copy and paste jobs from wikipedia or damn near close to 100% copied. I'd love for one person to provide a legit site because I currently have a 15 page paper that is due and am too lazy to do it. I'm not shelling out another dime on bogus sites.

What's even funnier is this I ordered a paper last April from ...okay I don't have their name but they operate many of the websites out there...here is the email title

Writing Services Company <nonplagiarized@thewritersland.com

The paper wasn't ordered from thewritersland though. After I was scammed I emailed the company and got no response. I sent an email to them as well as on their contact site everyday for 5 months. I didn't miss a day. No response. It wasn't until I started my own site and blasted them in my intro that they retaliated. They went as far to pretend to be a customer stating they paid me on paypal and never received a paper. It got better they created a fake receipt and everything. My father who works in the computer industry traced the IP which matched an IP signature from the owner of the website. When I decided to close down my site they kept emailing me asking "where did your site go you didn't do well did you", which isn't the case. I provided a legit service.

Okay I realize I rambled on through this post but I'm fed up with the sites online. There is no way to find a legit site and frankly from the amount of sites I've personally ordered from I think it's a fact there's not a legit one out there. I realize as well that contradicts me saying I had a legit site, but most of my traffic came from word of mouth through various Universitys in the United States. Oh well I guess I should do my own paper.

If you're going to be ordering essays, the smartest thing to do is order a few small papers as far in advance of your deadline as possible. Don't wait until you have a major project to start experimenting and keep your costs down while trying out companies by ordering as early as possible.

Once you find a writer you like, stick with that company and always request that writer. If a company treats you unfairly, don't use them again and let everyone know to avoid them; if you're just not thrilled with the writer's work don't blame the company unless it's so bad that there's no excuse for their using that writer at all.

It's not much different from finding a good car mechanic: you either go by word-of-mouth referral from satisfied customers or you take your car in for minor stuff and gradually build trust in a shop and/or a specific mechanic who does good work and doesn't rip you off.

Just way busier than I've ever been before...between the essay-writing sites and private clients, I'm basically writing all night 7 nights a week, sleeping from about 7 AM - 2 PM, and just trying to get a couple of workouts in a week...

There are few good men online. I hope we can work together and not to be scammed by selfish and robbers sites on the world wide web. We should not only complain and warn our brothers but we must act together to prevent writers from getting scammed by these sites who used our talents and resources to earn for themselves alone and really don't have plans to share the profits to us writers who did all the effort and the hardwork. Not only that we also used our resources for conducting researches and writing our works.

This is not an advertisement, I just wanted to end this endless complaints about scammer site who did not pay their writers. The best option we have is to work together as a team.

The problem is, a lot of writers who don't really have an adequate grasp of the language (like yourself) are still trying to work in this business. Your ESL is very good, but it is not of professional academic quality.
