I signed up with essaywriters.net in September '06. I am now convinced that i have been a victim of fraud. I am currently in a battle with them regarding their reprehensible practices. I began writing for them in September, and now, 3 months later, i am profoundly sorry i ever signed up. Among the numerous complaints i have are:

>they didn't pay the accurate amount I earned, and even posted some of my pay to a pay period in the future;
>They find ways to deny payment, or delay payment.
>They allow customers to send papers back for revision an endless amount of times, and will dock the writer's pay for that
--and each time this has happened to me, it has been because the customer wanted something that was not in the original description and then expected me to read his mind. Once, when the customer kept adding things to the rewriting that was not asked for in the first place, he eventually became belligerent and began insulting me. The customer's money was refunded, and i lost $78 of pay for work i did correctly and before the deadline.

>they NEVER responded to my concerns or questions,
>they NEVER have anyone on the other end of the phone line who speaks English very well,
>and these phone-people cannot understand anything i have tried to tell them.
>They promise to do things they don't do, like give bonuses.
>they docked my pay for things that were THEIR fault,

Since the problems began, i did some research and found that many other writers have had this problem,a nd that this operation is a scam, and the operators of the essay writing entity are either Pakistani, or another foreigner, and their business addresses are also fake.

There is some evidence that they do not even operate on American soil, and so are not bound by the usual business practices, nor do scammed writers have any recourse. They own quite a number of other sites under different names, where they defraud writers and then create another domain when things get difficult.

Since you can't file against an employer with the Better Business Bureau (I tried), then all you can do is post to the forums and hope to save some other writer the heartache. I emailed the Attorney General of Virginia, which is supposedly the state of one of the offices of essaywriters.net. I have yet to hear back.

A satellite image of the address shows a residence, not a business, and no one in businesses near them haevv heard of them. There is apparently no legal recourse since it would be prohibitively expensive to go after them, and find out who they are, and if they are even American--which, it seems, they are not.

I am owed $366 and continue to try to get that, but it doesn't look good. WRITERS BEWARE.
