USAtermpapers.com - New Scam from Pakistan?

Of course, the owner of usatermpapers.com has hidden the domain's Whois data. However, the creation date is still public information:

Created: 2009-06-02

Gee, that's strange, because the following claims appear on the site:

-----------------------------------------
Usatermpapers.com was launched on 31 January, 2003 by its owner Jeffery Wilson, with the intention to help students writing their academic papers. With the passage of time, usatermpapers.com has become a leading online writing service company and has helped 6397 students and the count goes on. (SOURCE: usatermpapers.com/faqs.htm)
-----------------------------------------

OK, so we have thus far established that the owner has published egregious lies concerning the age of the 3-month-old site. (That's quite illegal, folks.) We have also established that the owner of the site is purportedly an apple pie-eating, All-American chap by the name of "Jeffery Wilson" who has written papers for 6397 students since 2003 (actually, since July of 2009 . . . busy guy, hah?).

Wait, now I'm even more confused, because the owner has published information elsewhere—on the same site—that contradicts his previous contradictions (LOL!):

-----------------------------------------
Let me introduce myself and tell you how and why I qualify to help you. I am Russell Conroy, and I hold a post-graduate degree in Chemistry from Alabama State University. Having completed my Masters, I had to start doing a job to earn my living. So I chose teaching as my profession realizing its vast scope. I was quite glad to teach and meet new students every now and then. . . . . In this modern time of internet technology, it forced me to think why I should not start helping the students online because it would save time. The idea of online help clicked me and I started solving students' problems through email and chat. During this online help activity, I came across online writing services and I realized it was a quite profitable business so I thought to make one of my own. And finally on 28th March 2003, I launched my website as usatermpapers.com. . . . . Since the establishment of our website, we have grown into a properly organized online writing service. We have helped 5692 students in writing their term papers successfully. (SOURCE: usatermpapers.com/faqs.htm)
-----------------------------------------

Wait, I thought that the owner is apple pie-eating, All-American "Jeffery Wilson," who has written papers for 6397 students since 2003. Why has incredibly successful "Jeffery Wilson" changed his name to peach cobbler-eating, All-UK "Russell Conroy," and why has the Jeffery-Russell hybrid traveled back in time to "un-write" 705 papers?

It only gets better:

-----------------------------------------
And you may fall a victim of any fake service taking it to be true if you have not experienced it before or you have no idea how to distinguish a fake service from an original one who claim to provide original termpaper for sale on internet. . . . . So here we are to help you understand why and who to believe a term paper writing service . . . . (SOURCE: usatermpapers.com/price.htm)

[Insert joke here.]

Upon information and belief, the person who is and/or has been the owner of writersmania.org is a Pakistani/Indian who uses the name of "Sid Salvi." Upon information and belief, he is and/or has been associated with all of the following sites:

affordableresearchpaper.net
affordabletermpaper.net
affordablethesis.net
custom-essays-lab.co.uk
custom-essays-lab.com

Upon information and belief, the freelance writer site, writersmania.org, is the behind-the-scenes provider of "writing" for the consumer-end sites.

Hey, OR, here's one more that may interest you:

ukessaywriting.com

Hmmm, I wonder how many fake, "American" and "British" names the owner uses throughout all of these sites.



Much more information to come . . . .

The AffordableResearchPaper.net site itself clearly states that "Jeffery Wilson" is the creator and owner, despite "Derek Gendron" being listed as the owner in Whois records:

I am Jeffery Wilson, and I post-graduated in Psychology from Brown University in 1999. . . . On 31 January, 2003, I launched my website as affordableresearchpaper.net.

So, now we have two additional names: Derek Gendron(who claims to have a mystery PhD) and Jeffery Wilson (who claims to have "post-graduated" from Brown, one of the top Universities on the planet). Sure, and I'm Batman.

Re: Delaware address

Wow, what a shocker! I've determined through research that the address is actually another virtual office owned by Valis International, a company that provides—get this—"US Presence" packages to foreigners who often have the specific need to fool American consumers. From the Valis International site:


-------------------------------------------
US Office & Mail Forwarding Service details

Your US Office (Real Office, not a PO Box):

Your Company Name
501 Silverside Rd Ste 105
Wilmington, DE 19809
USA

You and your spouse can be registered to receive mail.

Carrier: All mail is forwarded USPS first class air mail
Renewal fee: $300/year (or $165 for 6 months), includes 50 pieces of mail
Additional pieces of mail @ $0.50/piece

If you have Broadband Internet we recommend broadvoice.com for VoIP service, you can get a local Wilmington, DE phone # from them that rings wherever you are, and when you make phone calls from your phone your DE phone number shows up in the CallerID of the person you call. A great addition to your USBPP. Their Business Plans also include a separate Fax #.

Fellow Americans, isn't it nice to know that the ability to commit blatant fraud against us gets handed to certain foreigners on a silver platter?

Re: UK address

The following address in the UK is displayed on Custom-Essays-Lab.co.uk, Dissertation-Help.co.uk, EducationalWriting.co.uk, etc.:

Suite 210, Coborn House,
3 Coborn Road, Docklands, London,
E3 2DA, United Kingdom
Fax number: 44-12-7434-1110

It's the same situation as with the "American" address in Delaware. Again, I've determined through research that the UK address is actually another virtual mailbox owned by Mailbox4u, a UK company that provides "London Docklands Mail Addresses" to "overseas companies and small one-man businesses working from home." From the mailbox4u.co.uk home page:


-------------------------------------------
Your Len Mailing Address Service Mailbox Address will be:

YOUR NAME / COMPANY NAME
Suite 210, Coborn House, 3 Coborn Road, Docklands, London, E3 2DA, UK

-------------------------------------------


Fellow consumers in the UK, isn't it nice to know that the ability to commit blatant fraud against you gets handed to certain foreigners on a silver platter?

The Division of Corporations of the State of Delaware has no record of a company by the name of "Educational Writing LLC."


By the way, every one of the sites advertises different owners, with completely unsubstantiated credentials and pictures.

Read them all—they're hilarious! The "About Us" pages are especially puke-inducing.

By the way, the "Derek Gendron" character loves to perpetuate the nonsense through slimy articles.

More evidence points to the sites' true location in Pakistan.

1. Following is a job ad from nelaam.com, a Pakistani jobs site:

2. Writersmania.org has a listing at BestPakistaniWebs.com.

It seems one can incorporate a company in Delaware for under $1,000. Better than in the UK where the going rate is 39 GBP!

From where I am standing, I think this goes way beyond scamming - this is unfair competition and a violation of Fair Trade laws. Look at it this way - those of us who are actually answerable to UK or US law have to:
1) pay taxes;
2) update the relevant instititions re any changes made to the company's structure (with us it is the Companies House) and ensure that our records are up to date or we get fined;
3) actually adhere to consumer protection and sales/supply of service laws;
4) respect fair employment laws
5) satisfy our guarantees or else we get into trouble
etc etc etc
It is not just a question of our overheads being much greater than those scammers but it also means that we do not have the freedom to LIE (thousands of writers, countless customers, etc etc) which they do. How many customers are attracted to their sites on the basis of LIES?

Another thing - our rates are higher than theirs because of our overheads and the quality of our writers/researchers - but what do customers know? Masterpapers is in Albany, New York (!!!!!!!!!!!!) and is an American company, just as is any other GENUINLY AMERICAN COMPANY. Do consumers know this? Many do not, so it comes down to chosing between two American companies (joke) on the basis of rates!

Yes - I do believe that the majority are fly-by-night operations and will get bad mouthed out of business (eventually). BUT I really really do not get how supposedly responsible governments are allowing this!

Hmmm . . . .

It appears that the same person in Pakistan, Arif Samad, designed many of the paper sites (if not all of them, considering that the style is virtually the same in all of the paper sites), as well as the corporate site of a Pakistani company called "RightClick."




Evidence suggests that the Pakistani company behind these paper sites is "RightClick":

RightClick.com.pk
Suite # 506 5th Floor APTC Building
Block 19 Gulistan e Jauhar,
Karachi-Pakistan
(92)-21-4663489, 4616132
info@rightclick.com.pk


RightClick openly advertises its need to hire "Academic Research Writers":

Game Over
The Jig is Up
The Fat Lady Has Sung
The Cat is Out of the Bag
Pack Your Bags
To da lef . . . to da lef . . . everything you own in a box to da lef.

The following URL will download (well, at least until they start to remove evidence) to your computer a Microsoft Word (.doc) file containing Arif Samad's resume. One can see that Asif specifically communicates that he designed all of the following sites for the same company in Pakistan: RightClick.

rightclick.com.pk
dissertation-help.co.uk
educationalwriting.net
custom-essays-lab.co.uk

How about compiling a comprehensive list of the following:
1) Websites which do not represent an incorporated and legitimate company;
2) Websites which lie about their date of formation (number of years in operation);
3) Websites which falsely claim to be British/American
Etc ...
Basically, a single thread which lists all these companies. Would help both writers and customers and save them the time/effort needed to read through several threads just to access this info.

As I was reading through their webcopy, I really did not know whether to laugh or cry. Not only are they very obviously, very poor ESL, but the copy is senseless:"
"UK Dissertation Writing Help – For Those Who Are Serious To be Graduated!
How Awesome Would It Be Watching Your Love-Mate, Friends and Family Clapping For You When You Hold Your Degree At Your Convocation That Came As a Result of That Masterpiece Dissertation?
Don't have enough time to concentrate on your hectic dissertation writing assignment because of your long-hour job? Wanna relax and spend your remaining time with your family & friends?" From: http://www.ukdissertation.co.uk/

This is especially horrifying (http://www.ukdissertation.co.uk/dissertation_help.htm)

"Below you will find a dialogue between our custom support representative and a confused student seeking for dissertation help. This dialogue will help you how to investigate the legitimacy of any "Dissertation Writing Service".
Read how our customer support representative helped a DISSERTATION HELP SEEKER by telling him the ways on what to look for in dissertation writing service before deciding to pay any money:
Dissertation Helper: Hello, this is Carolyn for dissertation help. May I help you sir?
Dissertation Help Seeker: Miss, actually I m doubtful about where you are based? Are you really UK based as mentioned in your website?
Dissertation Helper: Sir obviously we are ... But don't you doubt, if even we are UK based, can't we be ESL (those who speak English as a second language)? Or if not then can't we hire "cheap freelance ESL writers" online to do your work?
Dissertation Help Seeker: What the hell? Are you there for promoting your service or creating doubts in my mind about your service?
Dissertation Helper: No Sir, actually I am trying to make you understand and help you figure out the important features of a legitimate "Dissertation Writing Service". Only by claiming that someone is UK based doesn't mean that they are going to deliver you the quality it is because of the following reasons:
1.Most of them lie and buy a virtual physical address to show that they are UK based...
2.If even they are than what are the guarantees that they are not foreigners or they have not hired foreign freelance writers on cheap rates?
At the end of the day, what customers are concerned about is the paper's quality and the security of their money!
Dissertation Help Seeker: So am I Carolyn! How can I believe that you are going to provide me the quality ensuring the security of my money even if you are UK based? I wouldn't have asked this question if you didn't create doubts in my mind! :)

Dissertation Helper: That's a wise question sir! That is what I wanted you to ask me or any dissertation writing service whatsoever :)

Dissertation Help Seeker: So what's your point? What's the proof that you are going to provide me with the paper quality?

Dissertation Helper: Well it's all simple. Despite the fact that we are UK based, we do not only base this fact to prove our service credibility... We satisfy our valuable customer by offering "Dissertation Ideas Service (Value £ 299)" absolutely FREE OF COST. The service includes the following features:



1.Dissertation Topics Consultation

(Get 3 Free Dissertation Topics Ideas In Less Than 24 Hours According to Your Prescriptions)

2.Free Dissertation Sample

This is the how we can prove you our credibility unlike others! Don't forget to ask for the above services (Free of Cost) to test their credibility. You can get any of the your above desired service by clicking the above links. Let me repeat it again that you don't have to pay a single dime to get any of the above service!

Dissertation Help Seeker: Thank you for your assistance! I'll surely test your dissertation writing service before buying it :)

Dissertation Helper: You are always welcome sir! We'll be waiting for you as we firmly believe on your quality! Have a Good day!

I don't think we should point-out their many displays of ignorance. It can only help them. I just like to stick to uncovering their deception and fraud. Everything else falls into place in due time.

Wanted to ask about that - if I copy & paste, like above, would it increase their hits or something? If so, best that I just say something like go to their FAQ or Home Page?

This makes my head hurt. And it's also hilarious. i especially like the "spend you remaining time" bit.

What is the matter? I just tried usatermpapers.com and i think i got screwed over...not sure what to do.

btw, how can you prove if a paper is 2:1 or first? Meaning If I got a paper from company x and I got company y to mark it, will that be acceptable?

usatermpapers.com = fraud from Pakistan

GREAT! So how do i get my money back just cancel my card?

Precisely! You need to cancel all your cards, close your bank account, change your address and, if you really want your money back, change your name and go into a witness protection programme.

. . . and burn off your fingerprints.

How did I miss that one?!

We are witnessing the de-evolution of our species :(
