This site is a scam.
"THE PAPER THAT YOU SENT ME WAS COMPLETELY PLAGIARIZED FROM
Journal of Career and Technical Education ENTITLED Career Aspirations of Women in the 20th Century BY Desirae M. Domenico Kennesaw Mountain High School AND Karen H. Jones, The University of Georgia FALL OF 2006 VOL. 22 #2!!!!!"
I haven't heard back from them $150 later! Thank God I didn't hand this paper in or I would have been expelled.

So you submitted the paper as your own without even reading/checking/revising it?

Quoting: Bob I was expelled. Same company. The paper was 100% plagiarized !!!!
A costly lesson learned in not submitting someone else's work as your own. Just because the essays from any if these sites is supposed to be original work does not give you the right to submit this as your own work Bob.
Essay companies supposedly check for plagiarism which involves using plagiarism detection sites such as turnitin. Once an essay has been checked through this method turnitin will hold a record that this essay has been checked. If the university then uses the same plagiarism checker the essay will show up as plagiarised as it is in the system.
This is exactly the point I was making to Lavinia about students submittng the work as their own. Essays bought from such sites should be used as a guideline only and should be rewritten in the students own words. This is the reason I gave up being a writer as I was fed up with students submitting my research as their own work. Stop cheating all of you and do the work yourselves.

stop assuming that everyone who uses this service cheats. that's an incredibly rude assertion not backed up by any evidence.
some do, the majority do not. if "bob" really got expelled, great, he has no one to blame but himself.

i'm pretty sure these plagiarism services are only available to academic institutions and persons, not to private companies. maybe i'm wrong but i am pretty certain that essay writing companies claiming to use turnitin are lying (another great sign of fraud).

That is 100% accurate, as far as Turnitin is concerned. Turnitin ONLY allows access to schools.
EssayWriters.net claims to use Turnitin to check writers' submissions, which is sign of fraud #1,756,873.

Actually that is not correct. I have access to turnitin and I am not a school or an essay writing company.
Turnitin is available to anybody who is willing to pay for the software even though it asks for the institute you are working for.
Try it out for yourself and you will see that you to could get it!

EssayWriters.net's access to Turnitin is completely fraudulent.

And I guess you are expecting me to be worried by this??
OOO I'm quaking in my boots!! Not!
I purchased turnitin for 2 reasons
1. to prove that it was available to those who are not schools and
2. to assist my in my job marking essays for universities.
I guess if I had asked the university to allow me to access turnitin using their access they would have allowed it anyway.
Either way I really do not care one way or another who you wish to show this to.

Actually, your use is inconsequential. My report to Turnitin's legal department will focus solely on EssayWriters.net's illegal use. You can bet your last penny that Turnitin will go after the Ukrainian crooks.

I paid for the usage thereof, and I do use it for a bona fide purpose as you should have noted from my post
Quoting: julie24963 2. to assist my in my job marking essays for universities.
As also mentioned, I could have had access to this for free through the university I mark for if I had asked for it.
It is not exactly a lie when i gavethe institution details as I do in a way work for them as an external marker of papers.
Ethical or not it does prove that others could access turnitin if they wanted to which rather blows the theory of WB that only schools can have it. You could argue that it is rather lax of turnitin not to make thorough checks of those requesting the software, but I guess as long as they get paid they are not that bothered!

You're not very sharp, are you? You think that your illegal, unauthorized use and EssayWriters.net's illegal, unauthorized use makes my "theory" invalid? First of all, it's not a "theory," but a FACT. Secondly, wake up and stop engaging in the same activities as the criminals!
Here's an explanation that even julie24963 can understand:
Barring ILLEGAL use by criminals, only academic institutions have access to Turnitin's system.

Quoting: WritersBeware Secondly, wake up and stop engaging in the same activities as the criminals!
As I am an essay marker I would hardly class my use of this software as ILLEGAL as I am entitled to verify whether students have plagairised the submitted essays or not.
As also stated if I were to request access to this software from the university I am employed by they would have provided this for me free of charge.
The point I was making (and am still making) is that if I can get the software as easily as I did then so can other essay writing companies. There is nothing that can be done from preventing these companies from using this software to scan the work of their writers which therefore means that if the customer chooses to submit the essay as their own the essay may well be detected as plagairised as it will be within the detection software.
For this reason, as well as for the sake of integrity and honesty, those buying custom written essays should not submit purchased essays as their own work. At the end of the day you are only fooling yourself that you are capable of completing your degree.
How do those students who submit custom written essays as their own work hope to fair in the employment world if they are ever asked to replicate the reports or essays they have submitted for university when they have never had to write their own work.
In the UK Oxford and Cambridge universities are now taking a tough line with oxbridge students who are working for essay writing companies. Any student caught working for these sites are being expelled from the universities. Upon entry into the university they are being given material explaining that they will be expelled if they work for one of these sites. Other universities are beginning to follow suit and more and more are taking action against students they suspect are buying such essays or are writing for companies.
Below are a few of the recent comments made concerning plagairism in the UK. Plagairism is defined as submitting someone else's work as your own without giving credit to the original writer. Those using essay mills cannot give credit to the writer as they are never given any information concerning the person that has written for them. Just because they do not know the author they do not have the right to submit this work as their own. It is plagairism however you try to dress it up.

You admitted that you provided false identity/qualifications to Turnitin in order to gain access. Therefore, you are a criminal. It's a black and white issue. You may want to read the contract that you signed. Indeed, you should be worried.
Your argument concerning plagiarism is meaningless and irrelevant. Have you ever heard of "free will"? You can't tell authors that they have no right to sell their own writings, simply because a miniscule percentage of customers may turn in the material, as-is, for academic credit.
If a student turns in a newspaper article for academic credit, should we ban the New York Times and all other newspapers? Get real.
There have always been cheaters, and there always will be cheaters.

Quoting: WritersBeware You admitted that you provided false identity/qualifications to Turnitin in order to gain access
Actually no I didn't give false qualifications if you can read correctly. It asked for the institution I work for so I gave the name of the university I mark for- since when would that be classed as a lie? Turnitin assumed I was a representative of the university admin department applying for access and not an individual who works on a freelance basis.
Quoting: WritersBeware You can't tell authors that they have no right to sell their own writings,
I am not telling authors that they are not free to do with their work as they wish, however I am challenging the ethics of those who knowingly sell to students in the knowledge that the work will be submitted as the students own work when in fact it is not. Why not just sell diplomas on line where no one has to work for them (oh I forgot there are companies in America that do just that) Let's encourage a world of cheaters. Why do your own work when you can pinch someone else's?
You might as well encourage people to go and nick from supermarket shelves while your at it
Quoting: WritersBeware You may want to read the contract that you signed. Indeed, you should be worried.
There was no contract numbskull! They ask which institute you are associated with and that is that. If they check with the University quoted they will find that I am ASSOCIATED with the university though not employed by them as I am self employed.You cannot teach me anything with respect to contract law. I read the small print on a bar of soap (tongue-in-cheek) As a qualified barrister I made absolutely certain that none of my actions could be deemed as illegal or unlawful.
You seem to suggest you know so much about turnitin - do you work for the company? Oh no you don't do you - you earn money by exposing frauds and assisting students in cheating using so called LEGIT sites!
You are now becoming your usual annoying self as you always do when you are losing so I do not intend to humour you with further discussion.
Just in case you need clarification of the last statement here it is in simple terms END OF DISCUSSION.
I fully expect you will reply as you do not know the meaning of the word END but let me add a few definitions
end - The point in time when an action, an event, or a phenomenon ceases or is completed; To bring to a conclusion.; To come to a finish; cease.
Anyway rant and rave as much as you like from this point onward it will only show your ignorance in failing to understand the meaning of the word END!!

julie24963, why don't you just stab yourself? Do us all a favor.
I was here before you, and I'll be here after you. You do not dictate when and how I post.
I will now prove that you are a criminal, as well as a completely unqualified "barrister."
You admit to gaining fraudulent access, regardless of any convenient excuses that you decided to use afterwards:
"I have access to turnitin and I am not a school or an essay writing company."
http://www.essayscam.org/Forum/9_311_0.html#msg4410
You encourage others to commit fraudulent/illegal acts:
"Try it out for yourself and you will see that you to could get it!"
http://www.essayscam.org/Forum/9_311_0.html#msg4410
Here's the Turnitin.com page that clearly outlines the only people who may use the service legally:
http://www.turnitin.com/static/price.html
EssayWriters.net's use is commercial in nature; thus, illegal:
"iParadigms hereby grants you a nonexclusive license to use the Site solely for your personal, non-commercial use."
http://www.turnitin.com/static/usage.html
EssayWriters.net also violates the usage policy:

FRAUD....SCAM....Cheating....
I just drained my dollars in the garbage....
It looks like others seemed you have receives atleast a paper in return. I received nothing. No one ever picks up or replies to messages on the 1-800 number listed on their website. They were prompt at replying my email enquiring about their service, but once I paid $$$ for their service, they never responded to my emails or messages. They just took my money and vanished.

non-plagiarized-termpapers.com is a total scam !
http://www.perfecttermpapers.com/ is also a scam! They are the company I ordered from and then when I got it, the url in the email with the attachment was the first one above.
thewritersland.com was on the email charge receipt along with this info:
Reseller Information
Sold by: SWREG Inc.
9625 West 76th St
Eden Prairie, MN 55344
US
VAT Number: EU826011714
Federal Tax ID: 35-2308811
I was thankfully only using it as a sample, as to how to go about using MLA style, but the first one they sent me was so poorly written, I knew it did not fit the MLA guidelines so I wrote back for a rewrite. They sent me the rewrite about 2 days later, and I checked one of the paragraphs' subjects on wikipedia and they had taken the whole first 2 pages directly off Wikipedia - didn't even rewrite THAT! Ha!
Just wanted to warn people about this.
I wonder if there are ANY legit custom written term paper companies out there to help people get a clue as to how one should be written. Certainly not this outfit!
Hopefully this post will prevent at least some people from wasting their money! (Funny because I ALWAYS check on companies before ordering stuff from them, but in this case I didn't. Oh well. Like I said, thank goodness I wasn't one of these people planning to turn in their paper in any case. But still it p**ses me off!)

You dealt with a notoriously fraudulent site(s) that evidence proves is directly connected to Pakistan, but uses fake addresses in the US. You already know that you should have done some simple online research first, so there's really not much else for me to type about the situation.
FYI, thewritersland.com is their "freelance writer" site through which they hired the fraudulent, scumbag, almost certainly ESL writer who plagiarized your order from Wikipedia.
stupidme: I wonder if there are ANY legit custom written term paper companies out there to help people get a clue as to how one should be written.
Yes, there are several legitimate companies that have been online since as early as 1995. Research sites/companies in this forum in order to eliminate the known fraudsters, and you'll be in good shape.

Has anyone ever reported this group to the FTC or other government bodies?
Seems to me they should be shut down and their owners put in jail for perpetrating fraud.
I now have absolute proof because they were stupid enough to take the first 2 pages of the paper they sent me directly off Wikipedia. I suspect the other page or two are also directly from wikipedia but have not found them yet.
Who else can I report them to aside from the FTC who might be able to shut them down?
