We are lucky that we entered into 2025 with both of these con companies out of circulation. Okay. I will admit, they have been out of commission for at least 2 years since the urls are still active, but no longer connected to any useful pages. Students are very lucky that these Kenyans were driven out of the industry before they could do long term damage to the students and the industry. It is important that students are aware that dealing with Kenyan writers comes with great risks. If the writer you are about to hire is from Kenya, then hire that person at your own risk.

There are so many red flags on the website of this company that I do not know where to begin. Nothing about the layout and provided information can instill confidence in the client who is considering hiring this company. I guess the biggest problem that I have with them is that they do not provide a physical location for their roffice. I mean, granted, the location may be located out in the middle of the Grand Canyon, but at least there is a semblance of a professional address for the student to refer to. Their lack of a contact number is also worrisome since using only chat to contact the office, but not the writer does not leave the student with a lot of communication channels should a problem arise in relation to their order.

The business model of the research paper business has been permanently altered by the emergence of Artificial Intelligence. The writing companies are investing heavily on the development of their Ai writing department in an effort to augment their income. Academic writing as a human occupation is being challenged by these AI writing models which learn as the students use them. Unfortunately, these cannot learn fast enough so the students cannot really use them for their writing needs in the same way that they can use a human writer. While I was hoping that AI writing was only a fad, it appears that it is here to stay so the human writers will have to fight to remain relevant in the business.

I have a problem with the way that CustomDissertation.com identifies its location as simply being in Boston, Massachusetts USA. It reminds of the way that The Simpsons location is in Springfield USA. There is no specific location nor address attached to a company that claims to deal only with UK and US educated / based writers. If you cannot give the client a specific location, not even a P.O. Box address, then I see no reason for the client to trust anything that you can say and promise them about their paper order.

I never actually thought that the writers ran any danger of not being paid by the students. I guess that is because the more commonly discussed problem at this forum is:

A. Writer blackmails the student
B. Writer does not complete the work for the student after being fully paid
C. Writer does a sloppy job of writing the paper

Thank you for calling our attention to the risks that the writer could run when dealing with new clients.

Thank you for your highly detailed and comprehensive response @Freelancewriter . The information that you have provided can be used as a guideline by the students for those situations when they need to directly hire a writer or pass through a writing company. The insight provided in this updated thread comes at a good time, when the writing companies are seemingly going back to their old ways of blackmailing students and threatening them if the writing company does not get what they want. So knowing how the payment process actually works will be a big help to these potential student clients.

Another pricing consideration that the students should have is that these writing companies tend to use AI writers for their orders these days. In which case, the student should not pay a premium price for artificial work. I have heard reports of these academic writing companies beefing up their newly formed AI writers department. There are still human writers on staff, it is just that they are made to write generic research papers for the company from which the AI can pull information from for the creation of incomplete research papers for students. Make sure to ask if they use AI for their orders. While they will not admit to this openly, there will be a level of discomfort in their response that would give their true answer away.

It is not clear to me when the company stopped using the Norton Verisign and Trust Guard logos on their website. All I can confirm is that they have stopped using the logos across their pages. It is more than likely that they were reported by the students that they scammed to the aforementioned integrity checker companies, who more than likely threatened the company with legal action in relation to unauthorized use of their logo. The company has since turned to using simplistic Web page presentations and more basic English vocabulary. I would not trust this company to work for me though. I mean, they faked their integrity image through the unauthorized use of those logos, there is nothing that will stop them from blackmailing a student if they feel the urge to do so.

I am not sure if I can rely on a company that agrees to have me pay for my large page number orders via installments. Perhaps @Freelancewriter can shed light on this for those who might have a large scale order to place, but do not have the money to pay in full upfront. What are the dangers of paying in installments for both the writer and student side? Is this something that most independent writers should consider when building a client base? Or is this a service that should be reserved for long term clients with a proven payment track record?

Please do not forget that the testimonials posted on the website are not real representations of the work this company provides. They have hired British actors to portray the roles of students who have used the services of the company with great satisfaction. Just listening to the dialogue will reveal that they are reading off a script. Some of them even have a note of doubt in their voices which, I believe, the editor failed to edit out of the final cut because of the way the footage was shot. The actors used the gig for a quick paycheck and they knew that the people who hired them would not be able to tell that they did not believe in what they were saying.

Jordan Kavoosi is a chameleon who continues to find ways to scam people online in various ways. One minute he is an essay writing company owner, the next he is a CEO of some mechanics firm, he even has a linkedIn page that has him looking so executive like. Anyway, his ducious activities go all the way back to the early inception of the Internet and social media via his MySpace page. He is a very slick conman if I ever saw one. Beware of this person. You never know what you are getting into when dealing with him.

I felt a migraine developing as I read the copy on that website. It is obvious that the copy was not reviewed, edited, and revised before posting. These companies always forget that the website is the first thing the client sees which helps them decide if they want to consider hiring the company or not. When the grammar is as bad at this, the ENL students will definitely not hire the company. Their best bet at recruiting and maintaining clients would be among the ESL students who would not be able to tell the difference between a well written paper and one that was spewed by an AI, which I believe would be the case for any student who goes with this writing company. There is absolutely no way a PhD holder would have such shabby writing output.

The last update that I received about the Chinese academic writing companies is that they are functioning from within China and their writers are now composed of Chinese citizens who have been educated either in the US or the UK. Academic writing is considered a formal career in China and is not hidden in the shadows as the occupation is in the UK and the US, among other countries. The students that these companies cater to are solely the Chinese students abroad as well. It is not an industry that is government regulated as far as I know. They prefer to hire Chinese speaking writers who have a high degree of English competence to avoid any problems with instruction translation.

Essay Services / Unemployedprofessors.com review [49]

Well, the company is still doing business with students these days so they must be doing something right. While we all know that their claim of being retired or unemployed professors can truly be questioned, it appears that the students do not really care about who writes their paper, as long as the paper is written on time and with a semblance of quality contained in the final product. So whatever we see as the problems that this company poses does not matter. Students are willing to overlook it in exchange for services that seems to satisfy their needs.

The domain name is up for sale. So while we can appreciate the OP for explaining why the company is a scam, it is really a moot point at present. The company no longer exists so there is no reason for the post to be considered imperative reading for the students. There is no trace left of the company online. It has not even merged with another company so that it can continue to exist under a different domain name.

It seems the "legalese" of the scam companies have greatly evolved from the time of this posting. They have learned how to sound more authoritative, their papers tend to look more legitimate, and the repercussions they claim, more convincing in terms of academic fraud. The companies have evolved their scamming routine into something that actually adds to their company income every month. That is really sickening. Legitimate writers and companies would never enter into this sort of practice.

The company seems to still be active but the website is hell to use. It is not very easy to navigate and does not say much in terms of advertising the company services. The only information that can be found is in the About section. The data it contains has not changed from the previously posted information here. So I am guessing that the scam is still active. They have not updated their YT video nor added to their roster of employees. So I would have to say that all of the information pertaining to this company in this thread is still reliable as of today.

Freelance typing jobs can easily be found anywhere online these days. Google used to be the only source of such jobs. These days though, Facebook is overflowing with these sorts of typing job ads. The problem is, not all of these jobs are on the level, regardless of where you found the ad or clicked on the link. There are those that are scams, there are those that just harvest information, and there are some that truly want to hire people. How can you tell if it is a fake posting? If they insist that you download Telegram, then you better not proceed with the application.

Projectdeals.co.uk became the surviving entity of the 2 academic writing companies. However, I would not suggest that any student hire projectdeals. Their website looks like it was put together by a 5 year old -- and a 5 year old might have even done a better job at designing and writing the content. It is not the kind of company website that would lead a potential client to gain confidence in the company.

It is not easy to find a reliable dissertation company these days. The drought in terms of regular orders has forced some academic writing companies to release their best and highly paid writers. They have kept their cheaper and less skilled writers in their employ instead. This has resulted in lower writing quality coming out of academic writing companies. It would be better to consider a direct hiring method for dissertation writers instead. That way you control the quality of writing that will be produced. The interview process will be vital in getting you the best possible dissertation writer.

An independent writer who tries to get his business going and constantly growing through fraud and identity theft will not last long in this business. This person is a good example of that. His company never took off. It is important that the students know the importance of properly vetting the writers that they plan to hire. Make sure that the information you receive about them can be confirmed by independent bodies such as the members of this forum. It would even be better if you hire writers who can be found at this forum. At least they have been in the business long enough to have a verifiable track record.

Hmmm... The address is a legitimate business address in New York City. There are several academic service based companies housed at the location but, Precision Consulting Company is not one of those listed as a legal tenant at the building. I think this is a case of address hijacking. They have "borrowed" a business address to give their legal sounding business name a "legal" identity and location. Unfortunately, Maps can easily disprove their claim as a legitimate company. I wonder where they are actually located.

The threads at this forum really need to be updated. I believe that discussions in relation to now defunct academic writing companies, such as this one, should be removed from the threads list already. There is no sense in discussing a company that is no longer in existence. The students will not be able to hire their services, nor at the students in danger of being scammed or blackmailed by them already. Does anybody see any value in keeping these cobweb covered threads active in the threads list?

I have a problem with how this company offers a grade guarantee as a part of its service. It is impossible to assure a student of an actual grade level or expectation because other factors would need to be worked into that guarantee. The writer's ability for one, is a very large factor that should be considered in this instance. If the writer assigned is not UK educated, then he would struggle to reach the level of writing required, if he can achieve it at all. Then, there is the complexity of the paper being ordered. Revisions may be needed and adjustments to the content would be forthcoming depending upon the comments of the professor. I just do not think it is proper to promise the students a grade as a part of the service.

Do we have any students who successfully used the company as participants at this forum? I would like to hear from those who have used the services in relation to the actual expertise of their writers and the level of their professionalism and service quality. The company has quite a convincing website that I do not doubt the students would be eager to sign up for the services they offer. However, I am not sure if the writer skills described translate into actual skills. Perhaps somebody can shed light on the actual abilities of the company and if their services are worth the money being paid for it.

Starting a new writing service in the age of AI is not a very good idea. I realize that this post was made ages ago, but there are some writers out there who are trying to band together after their company closed due to lack of clients. Pooling your resources to try and create a company, without an assurance of gaining clients is a risky move. Unless of course you already have some clients that came from your previous company, which you will be bringing into the new one. In which case, why not just branch out as an independent and leave the company set up out of it?

It is indeed puzzling to think of how the writers would manage to upload a full draft within 3 days. It is next to impossible for large scale orders. Clients often accept half the full page number requirement as a draft, provided the writer negotiates it with them first. While there are some who believe writers are miracle workers, who can fulfill a draft within 3 days. Writers often accept these sorts of orders when they are trying to fill their monthly quota in relation to their income. Yes, it is often equivalent to sleepless nights for them in most instances.

The company remains out of business under this domain name. It appears as Address Not Found when you try to connect to the site. I guess the company with a highly professional sounding name was not really professional after all. They were also unable to sell the domain name to at least get some of their money back in the investment. Academic consultancies are actually a better business (for some), than academic writing because the former only requires reviewing the already written papers or, helping the student get started with the paper. It does not require a writer to actually write the paper, yet he gets paid more than his writer counterparts for the job.

The company blurb is nothing but a series of SEO targeted keywords that make the statements ESL beginner level sounding. This is not the sort of college level (basic) writing quality that a student should expect from a professional "Essay Writing House". Get beyond the White Man in the suit and tie at the start of the page and continue reading to the lower sections to discover how the company is using self promotion and self written testimonials to sucker students into ordering papers from them.

I wonder if all of the students who filed refund claims with the company managed to get their money back before the company eventually folded. It is not even existing as a domain name at this point. I could not find any trace of the company online anymore. So students do not have to avoid the company at this point. I asked around and learned that the company did not even come back under a new domain name. The company ran out of money is all that the others would tell me.

Superior Papers is one of the longer existing writing companies to be found online. While their writers are not perfect and they do have some quality problems, their track record as being one of the more reliable academic writing companies outweighs the negative publicity. Their writers normally churn out acceptable academic papers. However, getting a good writer is hit or miss in this case since they tend to bid the papers out to their writers.

Eventually, their con will be discovered by enough students to spread the word , which eventually result in their company being shut down.

Based on the length of time that it takes for the handshake to complete and the slow loading time of the page associated with the company name, I am guessing that they are slowly taking down the company. They are using mostly AI to power the pages, with a chat bot in charge of client welcome and inquiries. It would appear they are cutting down in costs and in the process, using inferior writers as well. They cannot offer good assignment help since it is a well known fact in the academic circle that their writers are 3rd world educated and therefore, cannot produce 1st world academic papers.

It is misleading for this company to assure students that they will get a well written paper within 3 hours. They have neglected to inform the potential client of the criteria that this time frame is based on. The complexity of the paper, the number of pages to be written, the outside sources such as personal interviews (if required) all factor into the actual deadline for the paper. Legitimate writers and writing companies would not make such promises to a client without first assessing the writing requirements of the student.

I assume that the writers mentioned above all contacted the OP directly to hawk their services. That would be the only reason why the OP would receive such a large number of letters from independent writers. It is always best not to respond to these individual work solicitation emails because there is no way of vetting their actual writing skills and research abilities. A proper academic writer will never seek out clients via email. They wait for the client to contact them. The academic writing business frowns upon solicitation emails. It does not help the image of the independent writers overall when these solicitation emails are sent because that sometimes ends up as the first impression of a potential client with regards to independent academic writers. Yes, they give the legitimate writers a bad name.

Is anyone else getting a security warning that goes like this: Sorry, you have been blocked from accessing this site. What gives? Why would they be blocking certain IP addresses from accessing their company site? That does not make sense. Academic writing companies are supposed to be an open access platform because they never know where their next client and payment will be coming from. Blocking IP addresses does not make sense when you run an international client base company. You limit your access to potentially paying clients that way.

When a company offers a 15% discount on your first order, regardless of what time of the year it is, I would have to ask why they would discount their writer's work that way. The amount that they charge reflects their confidence in the abilities of their writers to complete any paper that is assigned to them. This discount does not help build confidence in their writers, it only serves to harm their writers reputation since they are not going to be paying the writer full price for his work. As far as I am concerned, those discounts for first time orders should be a red flag that tells you that they are not going to have an ENL do your paper.

I have a problem with an obviously Chinese owned academic writing company that would hire a writer without a college degree, provided he can prove that he has above average writing and research abilities. I mean, huh? How can you expect a writer to produce high quality papers if he was never educated to the level that would allow him to deliver at least a basic college understanding of the topic he is supposed to be writing about? If that is one of the criteria the company uses for hiring their writers, then I would advise students to stay as far away as possible from this writing company.

Only non-English speaking writers and non- US or non - UK educated writers would struggle to write Philosophy papers. That is because their educational systems do not have a focus on Philosophy when the students get to the college level. Only Psychology students would have serious courses in Philosophy owing to their potential line of work and chosen college major. So, just make sure that you hire a writer whose educational system pays attention to Philosophy classes, at least on a primary level so that the paper you will be ordering can properly discuss whatever philosophical discussion you need.

. 100% payment should come up front. Drafts are a useless way to charge clients more for nothing, and they exasperate writers.

Actually, there are some academic writing companies that have installment plans for their clients. Academia-Research is one company that comes to mind with regards to this policy. They ask the writer to provide a draft of the paper 3 days after the order has been assigned, then the client can review the paper and decide if he wants to continue with this writer or have the writer replaced. He pays a deposit to receive a draft version, then the rest of the paper is paid for as the sections are submitted for the review and approval of the student.
