Gotta love EW_writer's HIGHLY selective quoting, eh?
what does WB's article prove?
It's not "WB's" article. The article is the product of a major media outlet, and it will serve the public's cause quite nicely when the law comes a knockin'.
You're just too ignorant to recognize the deeper, long-term, legal impact of the article: chronicle.com/free/v55/i28/28a00102.htm

Big deal-you're bragging about something that is STANDARD PRACTICE in the industry. (Now, however, you re-sell the papers through MightyStudents.com. You did not admit such until you got OUTED in this forum and decided that you had no choice but to EDIT the customer contract on your "custom essay" sites to acknowledge that you resell the papers. Sorry, but your attempt to maintain the LIE that you do not resell papers in order to fool customers into ordering never had a chance. Darn-that scam got outed (not even by me) before it really had a chance to get off the ground. OOPS-sucks for you!
We're one of the best at what we do.
Yes, you are certainly the best at what you do. I concede that you are the best at lying, cheating, stealing, fabricating, etc. I would never take that well-earned title away from you.
As far as writing skills are concerned, you're not in the same class as the legit, American companies-period. How many writers do you have that are better than pheelyks, Lavinia, FreelanceWriter, etc? In fact, ET's staff includes many writers who can surely give me a run for my money, and some who are outright BETTER than me. ET only hires North American and British writers of such high caliber because ET-unlike your deceptive employer-actually cares about consumer rights, fair/accurate advertising, and CONSISTENT QUALITY (ordering shouldn't be a crap shoot for customers; each customer should receive a top-notch paper
every time, regardless of which writer happens to take the order).
All the more reason why you should buy from foreign companies.. unless you want to end up like that student from Boston U. ^_^
essaywriters.net's (Universal Research's) many fake, "corporate offices" are virtual offices in the US. Their articles of incorporation are based on "US" addresses. An investigation by any government agency or legal party would indicate that Universal Research is a "US" company. Because the owners of essaywriters.net are Ukrainian liars who falsely claim to be physically based in the US (but do CONDUCT BUSINESS in the US), Universal Research will be subject to American laws, subpoenas, and jurisdiction.
The FACT that they are physically located in Ukraine makes NO DIFFERENCE to American courts. Indeed, once the judge is presented with some of the abundant evidence of corporate fraud and fake addresses that Universal Research from Ukraine advertises in order to deceive American consumers and unfairly compete with legitimate companies in the US, the judge will have ABSOLUTELY NO MERCY on them. As evidenced by legal precedent in 2008, the owners of a fraudulent essay company in Pakistan (or Ukraine) may be able to avoid monetary judgement because of jurisdiction barriers, but their SITES (which is all they really care about) absolutely WILL be banned by all search engines, WILL be banned by all advertising outlets, and the ownership of which WILL be transferred to the opposing party.
When faced with a lawsuit and/or subpoena, which option do you think that Universal Research will choose, without the slightest hesitation?A. hide all of its customers' information, despite the demands of a US Federal Court, thereby forfeiting ownership of all of its Web sites by default judgment;
B. promptly hand over the information and stay in business.
You guessed it-Option B!We have the best foreign writers on board. ^_^
LOL! I think that most members are quite familiar with the slew of EW's completely incompetent, foreign writers who have posted in this forum, as well as the constant stream of customer complaints-here and elsewhere-about the POOR QUALITY provided by those writers.
American companies won't let you cover your tracks because they are bound by law to keep records of their business.
Mod, this is brazen defamation-period. I have already explained, in great detail, why his egregious misrepresentations and blatantly false statements of fact are ILLEGAL.Although I was mildly entertained by EW_writer's failed attempt to "spin" the incredibly revealing article through selective quoting, I have decided to pluck the gems that constitute the focus of the
Chronicle of Higher Education chronicle.com/free/v55/i28/28a00102.htm:
"The Chronicle looked closely at one company [Universal Research (bestessays.com, superiorpapers.com, essaywriters.net, etc.)], tracking its orders, examining its records, contacting its customers."
"To place an order, you describe your assignment, the number of pages, and how quickly you need it. Then you enter your credit-card number, and, a couple of days later, the paper shows up in your in box. . . . What's going on behind the scenes, however, is another story."
"The address listed on the site is in Reston, Va. But it turns out that's the address of a company that allows clients to rent "virtual office space" - in other words, to
claim they're somewhere they're not. A previous address used by Best Essays was a UPS store in an upscale strip mall. And while the phone number for Best Essays has a Virginia area code,
that line is registered to a company that allows customers to forward calls anywhere in the world over the Internet."
"The same contact information appears on multiple other essay-mill Web sites with names like Rush Essay, Superior Papers, and Best Term Paper. All of these sites are operated by Universal Research Inc., also known as Essay Writers. The 'US/Canada Headquarters' for the company, according to yet another Web site, is in Herndon, Va.
An Essay Writers representative told a reporter that the company's North American headquarters was a seven-story building with an attached garage and valet parking. . . . That was a lie. Drive to the address, and you will find a perfectly ordinary suburban home with a neatly trimmed front lawn and a two-car garage. The owner of the house is Victor Guevara and, ever since he bought it in 2004, he has received lots of strange mail. For instance, a calendar recently arrived titled "A Stroll Through
Ukrainian Cities," featuring photographs of notable buildings in Odessa and Yalta. Not all of the missives, however, have been so benign.
Once a police officer came to the door bearing a complaint from a man in India who hadn't been paid by Essay Writers. Mr. Guevara explained to the officer that he had no idea what the man was talking about. . . . So why, of all the addresses in the United States, was Mr. Guevara's chosen? He's not sure, but he has a theory. Before he bought the house, a woman named
Olga lived there for a short time. The previous owner, a friend of Mr. Guevara's, let her stay rent free because she was down on her luck and she promised to teach him Russian. Mr. Guevara believes it's all somehow connected to Ms.. . . . That theory is not too far-fetched.
The state of Virginia listed Olga as the agent of Universal Research LLC when it was formed in 2006, though that registration has since lapsed (it's now incorporated in Virginia with a different agent). The company was registered for a time in Nevada, but that is no longer valid either. The managing member of the Nevada company, according to state records, was
Yuriy. Mr. Guevara remembers that Ms. Olga spoke of a son named Yuriy. Could that all be a coincidence?"
"Call any of the company's several phone numbers and you will always get an answer. Weekday or weekend, day or night. The person on the other end will probably be a woman named Crystal or Stephanie.
She will speak stilted, heavily accented English, and she will reveal nothing about who owns the company or where it is located. She will be unfailingly polite and
utterly unhelpful. . . . If pressed, Crystal or Stephanie will direct callers to a manager named Raymond. But Raymond is almost always either out of the office or otherwise engaged. When, after weeks of calls, The Chronicle finally reached Raymond,
he hung up the phone before answering any questions."
"Essay Writers appears to have been originally based in
Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. While the company claims to have been in business since
1997, its Web sites have only been around since
2004."
"The company's customer-service center is located on the 17th floor of the Burgundy Corporate Tower in the financial district of Makati City, part of the Manila metropolitan area."
"Some of the company's writers work in its Makati City offices. Essay Writers claims to have more than 200 writers, which may be true when freelancers are counted. A dozen or so, according to a former writer, work in the office, where they are reportedly paid between
$1 and $3 a page - much less than its American writers, and a small fraction of the $20 or $30 per page customers shell out."
"It's difficult to know for sure who runs Essay Writers, but the name
Yuriy comes up again and again.
Mr. Yuri is listed as the contact name on the domain registration for essaywriters.net, the Web site where writers for the company log in to receive their assignments. A
lawsuit was filed in January against Mr. Yuri and Universal Research by a
debt-collection company. Repeated attempts to reach him - via phone and e-mail - were unsuccessful."
"Mr. Robbins . . . finds an assignment that's to his liking, he clicks the 'Take Order' button.
'I took one on Christological topics in the second and third centuries,' he remembers. 'I didn't even know what that meant. I had to look it up on Wikipedia.'"
(Wow, essaywriters.net allows writers to take orders on topics for which they are woefully unqualified to write, and they get their info from WIKIPEDIA!)"
Most of the users who log into [essaywriters.net] are based in India, according to Alexa, a company that tracks Internet traffic." (No customers visit essaywriters.net, only WRITERS.)
"'[Universal Research (bestessays.com, superiorpapers.com, essaywriters.net, etc.)] made some suggestions, and I took their advice,' [Ms. Dirr] says. Unfortunately, Ms. Dirr says,
the paper 'wasn't up to the level my professor was hoping for.'"
"[Ms. Cohea] says she wasn't planning to turn in the paper as her own; instead, she says, she was only going to use it to get ideas." (Just thought I'd include this quote to further prove wrong EW_writer's absurd claim that "ALL" students who buy example papers use them to cheat.)
"
[Ms. Cohea] was not happy with the paper Essay Writers provided. It seemed, she says, to have been written by a non-native English speaker. 'I could tell they were Asian or something just by the grammar and stuff,' she says."
"[Mr. Tomar] has soured on essay mills after the paper he received from [Universal Research (bestessays.com, superiorpapers.com, essaywriters.net, etc.)]
did not meet his expectations. He complained, and the company gave him a
30-percent refund."
(When a customer complains after receiving GARBAGE, they finally give a 30% refund. Disgusting! Legitimate companies give 100% refunds-plus free papers-when a customer has experienced a legitimate problem.)As many have stated, any truly qualified, American writers who fall for essaywriters.net's rosy promises tend to leave the "company" fairly quickly, as such writers refuse to accept the absurdly
LOW PAY and cannot in good conscience tolerate the deception and/or fraud that they witness behind-the-scenes. These sentiments have been echoed many times by various members of this forum.
Similarly, the "good" writers who are referenced in the article appear to have already QUIT writing for essaywriters.net:"[James Robbins] most recent gig
was for Essay Writers."
"Eventually the low pay forced [Mr. Parmenter] to
quit."
So much for EW_writer's claim of maintaining the "best writers."
