A large number of academic research writing services has occupied the space on search engines. They make all sorts of claims, mostly fake, about the bona fides of their organizations, the quality of their work, vast network of their writers, high pay rates to their writers, hiring of native English writers, and so on. What is the truth?
A great majority of these organizations are:
located outside the US, although they claim to be located in the US. They hire writers from outside the US and Europe and pay them as low as $4 per page. Such poorly paid writers can hardly produce original, custom-written, non-plagiarised research papers. These writers may, at best, paraphrase the information,using their sub-standard English, obtained from the internet sources, compile them into the required format and submit to the writing services. The writing services DONOT have the plagiarism detection software. Thus, they put the student who ordered the paper at the risk of expulsion from school. They impose every conceivable fine on their writers to make extra money. They delay payment to their writers for one reason or the other. There are also cases where the writers are never paid.
Who are these crooks? Let us expose them. This is the forum for exposing these crooks to the students and writers. Feel free to post your experience on this blog. It will be a great service to the community of students and writers. It is only the public opinion that can behold these rascals. It is only the public opinion that can put these suckers out of business and remove their sites from the search engines.
Come forward and share your views, opinions (legal or otherwise) and experiences (personal or those of your friends) by posting comments on this blog or emailing us at voiceofwriters@gmail.com. Believe it that you will be doing a great service to the community by contributing to the common cause of students and writers in whatever manner possible. It is a mission not impossible.

Dear Voice of Writers! Yes, this writer has worked for us for some time, but failed writing two papers: one was completed at poor level and another one wasn't completed ontime at all. Thus, she violated our policy and we had to
fire her without any compensation. Of course, we're not interested in
revenge or smth like that and do not care whether she posts her messages or
not.
Best regards
HR manager
Victoria Gateworth

I successfully completed twelve projects. Academia-Research.com was supposed to pay me the fee amounting to several hundred dollars on 25th Nov 2005. Since then, they have been making one excuse after another to delay the payment. I would like to caution fellow writers to be very careful in dealing with Academia-Research.com.

Not much of a blog for a pro writer, one entry? I am trying to make some money off of blog, by writing. So far I made about $12.00, not much. Even 3 buck an article is better than what I'm making now.
Check it and see what you think of it.

This posting is to warn any and all writers not to accept assignments from Virtual Link operated by Sushant Jaiswal. The company is dishonest and does not pay for work completed.
Again: VIRTUAL LINK and SUSHANT JAISWAL do not pay for work completed. Do not waste your valuable time and effort writing for them.
I have personal experience with this company. I have written two papers for them...at an agreed total payment of $270. After repeated attempts to contact them for an explanation of non-payment and hearing nothing, I informed them that I would begin posting on writers' websites to warn other writers of their dishonesty.
The way I look at it, the business is legit. When you use the service properly – meaning when you really DO NEED help, like brainstorm with somebody who has done research on a certain topic – then that’s the time to use it. BUT if you submit every assignment for somebody there to work on it because you have the money and you’re lazy to work, then you miss the point of studying.
Somehow, money has a way of providing for reality check. No student has all the money in the world all the time to be seeking for these services. In turn, an agency with services like this may have at most 500 writers around the Globe but won’t be able to fill in the needs of all students catering to these services. Next to money, time limits student access to these services. Time – of the writers to write. They need to sleep also, remember that.
Academia research is a legitimate service. It's meant to help students and others who need help with their research and for brainstorming ideas.
I do mostly legal research work and I know clients find it very helpful because it helps in citing the appropriate case law and stuff like that. People in the legal field have a huge workload and rather than wasting valuable study time poring over reams of case law and finding the right sources to cite, they get to prepare for exams while I set out relevant points and cases for their review in the Papers I complete for them.
Its really too bad that there's dishonesty in this business too, like any other - from bogus operators like Virtual link who're exploiting writers, and also from irresponsbile writers and students.
We are a research writing firm based in Pakistan. We provided our services to the www.eswo.net who claim to have the websites www.genuinewriting.com and www.samedayresearch.com. When our due payment crossed US$500, they started delaying payment on one pretext or the other. Ultimately, they asked us to prove our identity by sending us photocopy of the passport. That was not a part of the our agreement with them. Still,we agreed to it and asked them to send us their company's full name, mailing address and telephone number which they refused to provide and instead asked us to send the photocopy to a 'dubious' fax number in the US.
Can anybody send such an important document to a 'dubious' fax number? Is www.eswo.net justified in holding back payment when the proof of identity from us was NOT a part of our agreement with them?
Can anybody tell us how legal action can be taken against www.eswo.net when they dont have any address and telephone number on their websites?

I have been writing for a research group as well... they pay me about Rs.150/page which amounts to $2.5/pages ... they tell me they work on low margin high volume... but i am pretty sure they charge more than $10/page from their clients... as that seems to be the minimum rate around !
anyone know if there are better offers out there to be had ? i feel i am being ripped off !
Before I decide to submit abstracts, may I know if shvoong is a legitimate site? And how do I go about determining whether a site for freelance writing is a scam? Thanks.
I have just made about $100 with www.eswo.net and have been working with them about a month and a half. March 15 has passed and I haven't received pay. I don't know why
I have been working with www.eso.net for the lst month and a half. On March 15, I was supposed to receive pay and I haven't received anything. I have left a couple of tickets to ask where the pay is and I have received no answer. Nada.
My papers are usually done well the first time without revisions. They owe me abou $120 but here we are on the 18th and I haven't received payment. I'm beginning to think they have moved or are in financial trouble.
Does anyone know anything?
Hello all,
I see a lot of writers have been ditched by academia-research.com. I am the one raped hard by academia-research. They never paid my $2500/-. But I do not know how come you writers are so foolish not to initiate any action against academia-research. I am saying this because I am giving them a tough run and academi will now be ready to pay me double the amount to save their business. I know not how you failed to capitalize on one of their simple mistake or vulnurability. Here I am giving you some clues as to how you can instead rape Nicola/Victoria/etc.etc.--use your brains and just do this and you will find the so called Nicola ready to sleep with you.Friends,they have a website and that's enough to send them early into their funerals.Moreover, at any point of time they must have had discussions with you over the phone..just get the phone number they used and ..do you need anything else?? These two clues are enough and now you just work-out how you can screw them. You all are writers, means you are amongst the best brains in the society but how come one drunkard and a low class prostitute outsmart you writers. Just take it as a challenge to get back your money..and see how you enjoy smoking them out of their holes...Even if you fail to understand what to do after reading this..then get back to me via e-mail: debroy13@yahoo.com.
Imp: I am also happy to see one whore victoria from academia-research justifying not paying a writer in her reply in this blog panel. I have a question for victoria/Nicola/David/Vitcho/Sean/etc.etc. from whereever you are...in the toilet of Empire State Building, Ukraine/Russia and and should I reveal your real address???)..please justify in this forum as to why you are not paying my dues?? Is there any quality/acceptance/delay issues from my end to get such a treatment from your end??? Another best and comparatively easy option is to get all those students using academia-research failed by the institute/university. Every writer must me knowing at least one institute whose pupil resort to academia-research for their assignment then just mail the instructor, that's enough..Moreover, many of us are professors/academicians involved with some institutes..then just use you contacts to discard academia's students. For example..I have done something like this in case of one HongKong University whose students used to buy academia papers ..I am not working there but I just used one of such students who have just completed his course. Identify the institutes/colleges where academia papers sell and just mail me at the above mentioned id..I will do the rest....I have good relationship with 11-12 universities in many parts of the world ..I even visit some for lectures..so let this be the begining of the end of academia-research...Very Imp Clue: It takes just 30 minutes at the most to have any website blocked and demolished including arrests of the owners (note: be it anywhere in this world) but the only thing is that you have to lodge your complaint with the right agency?? Hope you can crack this clue....pl. forgive me that I have not completely mentioned the actual course of actions and the contacts because....presently I am again in some touch with academia via e-mail and now it appears that they are going to clear all my dues...if not ..keep visiting this web-blog....

Many institutions limit access to their online information. Making this information available will be an asset to all.
Research Papers
So glad I read this before agreeing to work for academia research.com. They're offering piddling $4 for a 500 word blog post plus other things to be done such as linking, etc. I'm making $10 a page - so this seems like a rip off. Well, at least I can post my test blog elsewhere!
well i like your post . .the information in your post is quite good;) . .nice work .. Thanks a lot keep sharing:)
Dissertation Writing Services
Dear All,
I have submitted work to Victoria on 14 Feb 2011 and she informed that she cannot accept my test paper due to lack of originality...etc. with all due respect, I do not understand, as I did interviews with people I know personally on a professional level. However, I can take constructive criticism, but my main concern now is, after having read many of the negative comments left here, that she was, in fact fibbing and that she might use my work for her gain...I sincerely hope that this is not so...(I wondered why one of her questions when registering was about plagiarism? I could be mistaken, but, as mentioned to Victoria I had the misfortune of someone using my work before!)
Kind regards to all aspiring writers (Keep at it! Never give up!) and to you, Victoria...
From Elize
Thanks for your post VOW! I have also had an awful experience with Academia-research. They fine you once you make past a certain amount of money. You will not be able to trace the fines back to anything and most are generalized so you don't know what it is for. This last time around, I lost $200 in 1 day, and it was for work which had already gone through the account. I warn all writers to not get involved in this site, as it isn't legitimate.
