Looking for writers for our team

    So A friend and I are starting a website for content (article writing, re-writing, spinning, forum posting, blog commenting, etc.), and the workload is going to be HUGE. We both have connections to guys who have a ton of clients looking for content to be written, which is why we are going to take advantage of that, and we too know a lot of people who need work done. The site should be up within the next couple of days.

    So my offer is if you are interested in joining our team, you would get 90% of every order that you fulfill for us, and if you have one, your entire team can be in on it as well. Once we receive an order, and you complete it, we will send 90% of the total order amount to your Paypal account, fee free. We will bring in all the work, too.

    Let me know if you are interested so we can start talking business.

    As of right now, we are thinking in the range of $4-5 per 100 words, $15 for 500, and $25 for 1,000 in terms of article writing. Re-writing will be $3-4 for 100 words, $12 for 500, and $20 for 1,000. Forum posting will be around $.20 per post and $.25 per thread.

    You would then get 90% of any job you complete.

    Nice use of punctuation there.

    Where will the team be based? I'm currently in the UK so I'm assuming this is sn American project?

    Haha, you gotta love the guys who ask for writing jobs that use punctuation like that. Anyways, yes, this is an American project, but I will take writers from the UK.

    I will send you a PM.

    Why would you be interested? He will make you write a 700 word sample. He will like it, and when you ask for more work and/or payment, he will disappear.

    If you were scammed by this same guy, I would take note of that warning, if not, then I think that is a matter of how you negotiate.

    Exactly the same thing he did with me also. I am not sure whether he is a fraud or not but I must say this is not the way to do proper business.

    I don't know what to say. I can't believe there are still people like him...taking advantage of other people's hard-work. Probably, he was just too lazy to do the articles that had been assigned to him.

    It is considered fraud my dear, the fact that he did business with you and closed the deal, but he breached.

    I think, your warning had been noted. Although, I have to say that there is no transaction yet. You see, there is always 2 kinds of people -the good and the bad.

    Seriously I'm also speechless about this problem. Well, I know DP is a good forum and the moderators will take some actions for sure. Let us wait and see whether this guy reply us or not about the payment against our hard-work. Otherwise I'll ask mods to take some serious actions. I still hope about something good. Like he will pay for our hard-work. :)

    He seems to have cheated a lot of writers. We're probably not the only ones. Somebody? I think it's time he got a permanent ban...

    I think we all should trace our article (by copyscape or simple google searching) where it is published and complain against the blog to the Hosting company as well as to Google (if he has adsense in his blog) or any other advertisement company which he shows to his blog

    I know for a fact that ArijitKRoul has made off with $648 without paying a writer. He is a confidence trick-star and we are warning anyone that is potentially writing for him to be wary unless he can pay in advance. PM if you want further details. This is no longer about the money but preventing other writers from being abused in this way. It has been going on for the best part of 2 years!!!
