Sad thing is that every single item I posted actually happened...and then some. A lot has not been posted, but the highlights are there. An American writer moved to Egypt because Hala would help her establish herself and set her up in a nice apartment etc. She basically was left in the lurch when the business imploded and I believe she is still in Ireland. She went from country to country afterward. I stayed in touch with her for a bit, but am not sure where she is now. She had her small baby with her as well. I imagine she is ok because she's tough. She would tell me things in email and I would email Hala and inform Hala how bad things are for her and how she needs to pay her what is owed. Hala would call her a liar...and that's that. Sociopath behavior.

Yes sheba. I am aware of many of her activities because I was a part of her company until everything began to unravel around 2010-2011. I was one of the "directors" and often there would be emails by me to customers that I never wrote or she would tell me to write a note to this customer etc. saying the order was nearly complete. Ultimately it was all BS.

The only thing she has ever said about WB is that she "stayed on WB's good side because she is influential in the business and that WB is ET" blah blah. Whether or not that is true remains to be seen and I never really cared. WB posts some beneficial information dealing with scam companies. I imagine if she had any contact with WB in the past then that contact has certainly ended.

It is a bit sad. I was a part of her company and I legitimately completed orders etc. I believe the company was making money as well. I was invited to Egypt to visit her and sign some documents. She lives in a very rich area of Egypt with a butler and driver etc. All of that is true. I believe her parents were involved heavily with Hosni and are thus suffering now after the revolution. This is perhaps why Hala has not paid anybody since that revolution. I know FW is owed some money, I am owed some money, and I know three other people that are owed money.

During this whole ordeal, this is what has "happened":
1) She is on a terrorist list and they stop all transfers
2) She sent a Saudi national to America to hand the money over to me...in cash...and he was stopped by the local cops and imprisoned (although I know all of the cops in the small town I once resided and nobody had a Saudi national in their custody).

3) Her grandmother died (about three or four times now)
4) Some kind of health problems
5) She was shot in the Egypt revolution
6) She will give me the money once she arrives in England, but the revolution has caused a Mad Max scenario to occur at the Egyptian airport and she cannot leave.

7) She was shot again in Egypt.
8) Another writer was owed money by her and she stated that I personally would send the money to this writer and vice versa.
9) No power in her house because of the revolution.
10) No internet in her house because of the revolution.
11) They are rounding up Hosni supporters and she is in hiding.
12) Her aunt died...or somebody close...I forget. It wasn't the grandmother this time.
13) She tried to come here personally and pay me, but she was sent back to Egypt because she is on a terror list (yet she can come and go to England).

14) She actually gave me a check before I left Egypt. I cashed the check, which was declined for insufficient funds and I was charged $580 for the check. It was a very large check.

There are plenty others that are similar to what is listed above. But that is the tip of excuses that she has given me.

I am grateful for visiting Egypt; however, she needs to understand that you cannot constantly lie to people and manipulate. She matches the description of a sociopath, which means she needs help. Manipulative to the point of calling me her brother etc., but sending me on wild goose chases to track down phantom money owed to me. That's what happens when you are in a business with a sociopath. I doubt any money will come from her ever again and I would imagine she will be on here posting negatives about myself, FW and others. That's my factual story dealing with Hala, and from the looks of this thread it appears my story is not unique.

Yes, custompapers.com is a legitimate company, accredited by the Better Business Bureau, and based in Illinois I believe.

I know we aren't supposed to post positive reviews, but what I posted is not really a review is it? They are legitimate...I believe an LLC, they are accredited (you can look that up), and they are based in Illinois (you can look that up as well).

Ditto on pretty much everything from FLW, but I imagine she is out of the industry totally now. So...the world can once again spin as it once had.

*cough* Custompapers (dot) com *cough* (advertising in disguise ;)

You don't have to "believe" it....it is a fact.

I am still waiting for that law suit.

Good luck finding a website that offers a free draft and is legitimate.

Essayshark is a foreign company. One can determine this from looking at the pages.

"With the advent of Internet, Essay Writers services have become a opportunity that anyone can afford."

Sounds borderline mentally challenged.....or ESL. I pick ESL. Essayshark is not a legitimate company. I imagine you already know this since you work for them.

Well...we cannot make recommendations, but I would check into custompapers.com. They are not frauds...if you are indeed attempting to avoid fraudulent sites.

You should work for a company that only has a bid option. If you think you deserve $15 per page for your writing and there is a 10 page paper on the board, then you bid $150. It is as simple as that. Don't stick with set rate companies...those are ripoffs.

Here is the problem. Your samples are fine from what I can tell, but they may not be your samples. The fact that your website looks like a grammar school child wrote it further supports my point. Yeah you have good samples but your site is borderline retarded. Now....what will you believe is the legitimate quality coming from that site? I would surmise that your samples are scams and your website is a scam. Mind you, this hypothesis is based solely on the website's numerous errors.

Really?? Great quality too? I present exhibit A:

"A one stop solution for all YOU assignment needs"

That was found on your homepage. You definitely need to edit your own content before posting on here about your great quality.

Exhibit B:

"The work would strictly They are extensively trained in Harvard Referencing..."

Exhibit C:

"And thus you can rest assured that your work is plagiarism free and thus can score high grades"

Exhibit D:

"As Fast As You Can Think" <--what the hell does that mean?

There are many others I can point out (from the homepage...I haven't looked at the other pages), but you get the idea.

Post the company name here and we can ridicule her.

If you truly are suing / pressing charges against a writing organization (criminal or civil), then the worst thing you can possibly do is talk about that organization on a message board.

Honestly...nobody asked your writing history. Every single post you make quotes your writing history. It has gone from whining to annoying. Ok...some people cheated you. Well you are an idiot for letting them cheat you. Now get over it.

That makes absolutely no sense. If you had said "innocent of all charges" then you may have received a laugh.

So what's the verdict?

I usually go for a minimum of $15 per page because I believe my time and knowledge is worth at least that. I will bid for easier topics and still have the minimum price of $15 per page because if you want me to write for you I must be paid what I believe I am worth.

Working for $6/page is slave labor. I believe the industry average on the low-end is $10-$12 a page. That is the minimum you should ask for...unless you have no skills and are worth a mere $6/page.

No...not a good company...don't try it.

The website is full of ESL goodness....so I would say don't trust them.

I can guarantee custompapers is no scam. The paper should be pretty good when it is completed and you should be overall happy with the experience. I have not found any instances of the company scamming people.

Possibly. Send me a message and let me know which outfit you are with. I had my own business back in 1999. There were only a handful of companies at that point.

From my experience, there is only one decent company in the entire industry and that company is not on the DND list.

I see what ya did there Major.

Ok...yeah...that company sucks.

True...I just wish there were no DND list. I wanted to see which company the original poster was pimping. I do not know the legal representation the forum has, but whoever it is must be remedial. There are no civil lawsuit problems with this forum. I do not understand why the owners are so terrified of the very elements that they are trying to warn people about.

It is like saying "pe**philes are bad and there are some in this playground right now along with some normal people that are great for your kids...but I cannot tell you which ones are p**ophiles because they will threaten to sue me for defamation (although I have unequivocal proof of their pedophilia)"

Does that make sense? I say delete the DND list and stop sheltering these companies. If there is a genuine problem then the mod should fix it, but do not limit the speech on this forum...it is counterproductive. If all of the posters see this original poster as a shill, then they will post as much and any reader of the forum can weigh the evidence. Do not limit speech.

Order 69807953

What does that prove? That can be faked as well. Everything can be faked. This forum actually serves no purpose because of the posting restrictions...so who cares?

No...you are boring all of us.

Oh...of course I am embarrassed on an anonymous online forum. Join reality. If you look I said WRITERS. You are clearly no writer. Game over..try again.

Do you want a cookie?

Personal writers? You mean independent writers I am guessing as opposed to freelance writers.

Freelance writers and independent writers are one in the same. Independent writers just publicize their availability whereas a company will do the publicizing for the freelance writer. However, you get the same writer in each aspect. For instance, I am a freelance and independent writer. I write occasionally for a website and do my own thing. I guarantee you nearly all writers will fall into this category or write exclusively for a company as a freelancer.

Did you not ask for my opinion? Why are you asking for other opinions when it seems as though you know more about the company than other posters? It actually seems as though you represent the company. Would I be correct in that assumption?

They are frauds.

They are bad and frauds.

Maybe you should proofread your horrific advertisement before you post it?

Agree with you on that. It has gone from "oh, poor dude" to "ok, stop whining" to "ok, you are obscenely annoying"

This is a site called Essay Scam, but you are not allowed to mention certain websites.

So....what's the point of this place again? If this is a message board owned and operated by a company within the industry...then once again...what's the point? Why have a watchdog website owned by a company within the industry (makes it for sure biased) and not allow certain names to be spoken (makes it for sure lacking in transparency).

What if all essay companies began to demand their inclusion into the DND list? This entire forum would be *****

Can anybody explain why this forum is here? Why not transfer the forum to an independent person that will have no biases or drawbacks? This would allow for a free exchange of ideas without the threat of lawsuits.

I know of only one company that has met all of their promises made to me and have never let me down with payment. I have worked for many different companies, and you have to stick with the honest and proven companies.

Here is a hint of the company name:

They have the word "papers" and the word "custom" in the url.

Here is the thing...FW attacked me when I was honestly asking him a question out of curiosity. He began to get very defensive and started assuming things from my post (which were never intended and I apologized for these). He *** pooed my apology, so I began to attack him right back because he appeared to be an arrogant one. He may be a good guy to you, but he immediately entered my "arrogant pri*k that lacks self-confidence so is always on the defensive" kind of guy. Do you seriously blame me for my messages concerning him? If you look at my posts, I originally stated the following:

1) Hey FW, you probably do not do a lot of essays concerning actual case law (JUST LIKE ME) because you do not have access to lexis (which is a database that shepardizes cases really well among other things)

----He took this as "you cannot do a case law essay because you suck as a writer and never attended law school"

2) I then explained my actions and apologized if he took it the wrong way

----FW replied with "you intentionally attacked me with your post and I do not believe that you are a law school graduate and you are in fact an ESL writer"

WTF?

So...I attack him. You should see why I did what I did. I am not attempting to steal customers from him. The fact is I do not even know him. I do not know his reputation and I do not know him as a person. What I thought we had in common has become a hindrance for me to know him better. I freelance for a major writing website on occasion, and this message board will do nothing for bringing me any extra business. I usually just slum here to see how the writing business is evolving...and that's it. I have no ax to grind, and really wish him the best. But if he attacks me then naturally I will attack him. If he cannot take the attacks and goes on the defensive, then he did not learn much from his law school education. They teach Socratic there FW?

I am not friends with editor. I discredit you because I simply do not like you. Don't try and flatter yourself into believing there is some grand conspiracy. You are an ass so I treat you like an ass. Simple as that.

Actually, the only real writing that you will do in law school is legal research and writing. I was not insulting until you came after me...so I had to put you in your place. So you graduated from Cheez Whiz Law School...so what? I still have severe doubts of your qualifications at this point in time. If you would have kept your mouth shut then I would not have my reservations. I imagine you attended 1 semester and flunked out. You are extremely defensive, which just proves my point.

Any and all papers you will write while in law school will be from RW 1 and 2...or from your Advanced legal writing topics course. Both require the same type of writing that I commented on...and that you said does not exist in law school. You are wrong, you cannot argue yourself out of a paper bag, and you have no qualifications that are endearing enough for any customer to trust you. No offense of course...

Now go scam other customers and try and convince them of your qualifications because you have just been outed on this forum.
