I actually am surprised that none of the paper mills have tried that, they wage war on so many levels...

They come to sites like this and post a phony post to promote their company, I would not put it past them to take the next step and create a site like this that has a "certification" that they can give their companies.

Of course I am not saying that either this site of Essayfraud are such enterprises, just that it seems the next logical step. (Perhaps someone more acquainted with the history of papers mills can tell us if this has happened already, lol)

Knowing someone who is still playing the foolish game of writing for these guys, i think it is funny when they tell me about how they watch assignments go long past the deadlines, and all i can think is "Poor kid losing his 200 bucks." LOL Then again, I really don't have remorse since I don't want those kids taking writer's jobs. LOL.

Yeah, my friend i sent the link to before i read this page joined. He said that the Questia must be a position by one person who goes and downloads the book after your request it, and then posts it.

He still wants to try writing some for them. I advised him not to, but he said he found a couple he already has a solid base with and would be good writing exercise anyway if he doesn't get paid. I told him that I warned him. LOL

I could use the money, if it were real... just don't want to waste the time on one of these places that may or may not have to pay. It seems hard to find a place that actually is legit to work for! lol.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread.... but I have a question about this "trend" by the students.

When someone does a charge back like this, why doesn't the company just alert the school that the person attended, send a copy of the paper and ask if the student had plagiarized the company's "guide" essay that was written for the student? It seems to me if kids knew that they could get expelled if they don't pay up for work then they are more liable to pay.

Of course this is a double edged sword... A student could get crap, refuse payment, and then be kicked out of school when the company goes after them. (Then again, if the student had any sense he would not have turned in a paper he thought was crap and had the intention to nullify payment)

Sticky situation... perhaps there needs to be some sort of independent intermediate company that keeps funds and proofreaders on hand to verify the quality of work and finish the transaction between client and company.

Wow... this may be the best way for a writer to get work.... claim that you have been scammed, give a sample and let the people looking for legit papers on a fraud alert site drool over someone with such "honesty."

You may have been scammed, i am not really criticizing the OP... more the people who jumped to give him money.

Reasons:

1) How do you know he is telling the truth about the scam?
2) How do you know he actually wrote that essay?

People need to be more cautious...

anyway, good luck. I hope he is genuine, because if so, I am sure he needs the money lol.

LOL. You are out for blood!

About a legit site that pays their writers and gives quality papers to customers:

The good: Writers who have degrees but cannot find work because of a tight job market get some sort of income. This includes academics and grad students who are in fields that currently have a lack of positions. Money is money... and when you are hungry you will do almost anything, even if it bends your own moral code.

The bad: Kids don't learn to do their own work. They get degrees, and may even get a job the writer should have because of some other connections they may have...

These services exist because kids want the easy way out, thus by helping them we are churning out a whole new generation of professionals that don't have the thinking capabilities that previous generations have had. Thank God that it is a very small portion of students who come to use these services... However, for the writer getting paid it is a godsend, so they will continue to violate their own ethics and further downgrade civilization to survive...

I think what you are doing Essaywriterwriter is funny. I suppose in a digital world where the worker really has little leverage to gain workers rights, it is a form of strike. And honestly, if the kids that are getting your essays aren't careful enough to scan the thing and what not... I suppose its caveat emptor (i probably butchered that spelling... but you get the point)

What you really should do is post your essays on your website so when the teacher runs it through a plagiarism scanner, they get a hit lol... I mean if you are only doing it for fun anyway, and it is not like essaywriters.net is paying anyone anyway... LOL.

LOL... i spent way too much time reading the posts here... so interesting.

First... I was looking at essaywriters.net when i was trying to find a place to write for... I am glad I found this site afterwards though, not going to work for those chumps.

A question for those of you who have worked with them, I noticed they listed in the "why you should work for us" page that they provided access to services [i]like[i] Questia (which is a decent service for looking up articles and books when you are snowed in ) I was just wondering if this was true? Do they give their authors access to such databases as Questia? I wonder this, because it seems profitable to me for a college student to write for them one small essay a month just for the free subscription to databases which run about 130 American a year...

Anyway back to the thread... I have dealt with "infiltrator" threads like this before, you see those people that are obviously from essaywriters.net are just decoys for the real infiltrators... some of the people claiming to have major problems and drug it on, and then said "oh look I got paid" are really essaywriters.net cronies too. After a reread I am sure most of you legit people can tell who they are.

Also... if you give those obvious decoys pointers on the English language... its going to make the threads less funny to read, because they might actually become more proficient in English, therefore becoming harder to distinguish. oh... who am I kidding these guys are never going to learn...

well, its 6am but i enjoyed the thread.

Not sure which card you used, but if it is a major American card (Visa, MC, AmEx, Disc) you can just suspend the payment. 90% of the time courts find in the defendant's favor if the company tries to take it to court. This is a huge loss for merchants, thats why they always like you to use your debit card when available, because banks are much more rigid on getting your money back + once the transaction has gone through your money is in their hands not the credit card company. The wonders you learn when you don't know what to do after you graduate college!

but on topic, that is why if you can suspend the charge... the service is screwed... especially if it is before their payment cycle. So act quick, nail those SOBs! lol

Then again you are talking in pounds... so it may not be exactly the same procedures across the pond.

good luck

I too have been looking for somewhere to write for... Grad school is taking its tolls on the wallet.

I figured I would look into essay writing sites... but like you, I try to avoid the ones that want bank info. I prefer only to submit info to ones that don't ask for it up front. I think I only found two sites like that, they basically wanted a resume and experience. I decided that that was not too compromising. So I will wait and see what I hear back, worse comes to worse maybe I can get some sort of inside perspective of the paper mill industry, and write a piece on that! lol.

Anyway it was cool finding this site, I am glad there are a few like it to warn people.
