Who is behind the criminal activities to sabotage and steal from the EssayScam community?

It looks some individuals are trying to sabotage EssayScam and the efforts of its members by stealing the content and violating the copyrights of the publishers. Any guess who they are?

It's pretty much obvious that these people are also running commercial websites providing essay services. If so, do their current and prospective clients have the right to know that by purchasing services from these companies they pay to support criminal activities and risk their personal/financial information to be sabotaged and stolen too?

One thing is certain: based on the server's IP they are located in Ukraine/Russia. Suprise, suprise! (not) The WHOIS info is fake.

My sources strongly suggest that the operators of the following sites from Ukraine are behind it:

customwritings.com
buyessay.org
essayshark.com
thepensters.com
uvocorp.com (for writers)

I've been dealing with a lot of Kenyan spammers; they work almost exactly the same.

My suggestion to clients and writers - avoid them like a plaque. They can use your payment and personal information to defraud you and steal from you.

Check this screenshot:

CustomWritings, EssayShark, ThePensters, UvoCorp (fraud)

Now compare to this: loserdo. digitalzones.com (look at the footer and the Ukrainian CustomWritings .com link). This is the continuation of the sabotage activities.

Excellent evidence.

The link actually points to topessayservices.com, which is one of their fake "reviews" sites. Surprise, surprise: almost all of the "top" sites are theirs.

Now it seems that CustomWritings.com from Ukraine have hacked the official website of the Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office. Their hope is to try to build a "brand" from the word "CustomWritings" (which, btw, is related to 'the third of three divisions of the Hebrew Scriptures', not writing).

Lol what is that, i'm curious.

Now it seems that CustomWritings.com from Ukraine have hacked the official website of the Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office.

Go to that page and click on any link, the links point to the web site that has nothing to do with customwritings.com (that is, us)

I'm not going to comment on companies allegedly investigated by the Interpol and the FBI, sorry.

Are kingessays.com related to speedypaper.com, anything else? These are true hackers - proof: dom-home .com/essaysc/active-or-passive-voice-in-essays/ (redirecting to kingessays).

CustomWritings often gets confused with CustomPapers. Now I understand the problem. These name similarities are often the source of problems for students who think they are dealing with a reputable company, then up working with a scam. They do not realize the wordplay error until it is too late. Yes, these are the companies that tend to sabotage the ES community. They are often caught and need to change their company name about 8 times a year.

The companies that try to take down EssayScam often end up taking themselves out of the industry instead. It is impossible for them to take on a company like ES and hope to use fake information to tarnish a reputation that has taken decades to build. While there are other forums that claim to be protecting students from scams, the only reliable one is ES, because of the way that the members of this forum truly want to help keep students away from scam companies and independent writers.
