Well, I contacted an ad that was on Craigslist for a company calling for multiple writers, which would make 40-50k a year. I, being a professional, was hesitant about it at first, then decided to go ahead. I am low on work right now as a freelance writer and needed something, anything at that point. Desperation makes you ignore red flags I guess.
I recieved a response telling me that my writing is good and that they need a sample. All right, this is not really too bad, as I have encountered this numerious times. As I waited for an email back, I did some research. I found that the site was owned by Wild West Domains LLC. I was satisfied, as I really wanted this to pan out and be legit. I assumed it was.
A few hours later, I got back that there were 800 applicants and they only selected 100 writers and I made the "first cut". I was thrilled that I did. I got another email asking for me to write some more if I like to help boost my application. I was hesitant about this as I have sent numerous writing samples already and written a fresh article. I decided to go ahead since I'm fast to see what happens. I sent it. I got back, "good but needs more description". Hmmmm.... I don't know. This all seem very scammy to me. I have been scammed of a lot of work before, which is why I was hesitant to actually answer the ad. But like I said; desperation.
I decided to do some more research. I am glad I did. I found many people who have been led on by this man behind the protection of a computer screen. I am a mother looking to support her kids and this is what I get. I am extremely mad and frankly, I feel stupid for even sending him anything. Writers beware. Just like the report that saved me said, writers you do not know your own worth. People will try to take advantage of it. I am so disappointed I could cry.
