Although I am writing about a specific site, the facts are ‘universal’. Scam writing sites have a pattern. If you catch it, you will protect yourself.
For the purpose of the article I’ll call the site Cinytent, (CT) for short.
Everyone was in a forum on a legit site when some newbie ran in excitedly posting about this new site, Cinytent.
He/She/It, (whom I’ll name as Kinteet), trumpeted how one gets 1c per every item one writes, and how they are paid for hits and comments.
Some people in the forum were a little sceptical, but others raced there as if they were on fire. They joined and began posting.
I took a look and came back and said, ‘this is a scam’.
I don’t think the comment was up for three minutes before Kinteet was posting; “I just telephoned the owner and he assured me that the site is legit!”
Now if there was anything to confirm that the site was a scam, Kinteet’s remark was it.
Let me be blood honest.
No one but a Shill, a person paid to bring warm bodies to slaughter would ever post something like that.
In fact, one has to be very dishonest to make assurances about something they do not own.
However, lots of people ran out to join CT. They wrote and they wrote and then they got promises.
The site is supposed to be in India which had a lot of ‘holidays’ and so Kinteet could toss excuses as to why money hadn’t been paid.
I said the money hadn’t been paid because the site is a scam.
Kinteet went to defend the holidays and promised the writers they would be paid.
As is said in my country; ‘a promise is a comfort to a fool’.
The site was taken down. ACCOUNT SUSPENDED…
This means that the Owner of the Site broke rules… broke the ‘law’.
Do I look surprised? Of course not.
Every Scammer creates a site on some server which he/she/it uses as a Beard. In many cases it is a site NOT in America, because America has LAWS. Other countries don’t have the same kind of laws. So opening a site based in another country means you can rip off the writers and there is no FBI knocking on your door.
CT was supposed to be a writing site. Okay? Where’s writing?
This is the first absolute unmistakable sign of a Scam.
How would the honest, normal person who writes on line be able to swear for anyone or anything?
If you aren’t the person paying me, how do you know I’ll be paid?
So CT goes down and Kinteet is running around talking about a new site called Motgatter.
If you go to Motgatter you’ll see nothing but a registration. Just like CT.
This is because the owner of the site is going for the ‘double dip’.
Having fooled lots of people before and made lots of money, until the authorities shut him down, he races to repeat his scam. And Kinteet is there, touting and shilling and pimping.
Yup. CT is back under another name with a website in Singapore, and the victims are lining up.

It is a very big problem on internet to identify the legit sites who have to pay the people from whom they make promises and take services before ditching and vanishing into thin air without paying any money to the people concerned. As the web happens to be run by the respective companies whose services are being used to host the scam sites these people who own the web engines and help these scam sites to sprout up should take care that their infrastructure is not being misused as even their name gets spoilt and so does their goodwill. Scams occur in different ways on the internet not only with writing sites and writers but with many other products services and places where information is being provided. If there is a branding, grading, rating and tracking process it would be very useful for one and all using the web for different purposes all over the world.
As this is a writing site, I focused on those scams. There are many others, i.e. dating sites, and of course when you go to buy something online.
it is really scary nowadays to surf the internet ... no once can control anything
You don't use your real name. You don't use your real address, you never give your credit card number, and never put up a real photo. You've just cut your chance of being scammed by 60%
