Been a little bit busy to add my experience since. First scam I came across asked for sample, I sent four, said I av to write one for him to be sure I wrote the ones I sent him, I agreed. After writing it, he told me I am hired. Next he wants me to do copywriting, 1000 words in less than two hours which I did. He stopped replying my messages and later blocked me immediately.
Will add more as time goes on


Hi,

I came across your post and I wanted to ask, what genre do you write?

Also, divepen is my friend, so this isn't scam.

My original account is bibijay123. You can also check my page and see the stuffs I have up there.

I need a writer, but I would like to know the genre you like best. Thanks.

Bibijay123? I am an ardent fan of yours.
I prefer genres that are in no way related to finance, crypto or fintech. I currently focus more on history, research writings and proofreading/editing.

Oops! I haven't really tried out any of those genres before but I can recommend a few people who work u have noticed on here before if you don't mind.
I really wish to work with you but I don't want to test the waters in those genres with a client's job.

He is still in the scamming business, please do not write for him. His full name is: Olowoyeye oluwapelumi seyi
He claims to work with a company in middle east Asia known as Opensooq. The guy would just drain you and has no empathy to even pay you all he owes. Please beware of him and his likes.
You write for him, he says he pays twice in a month, 13th and 30th but he never pays when these days comes. When you complain, he keeps postponing your payment and pays you peanuts. This guy owe me more than 40 something thousand for 3 months only to send me 12k claiming content writing is a risk so I should bear the risk. He is a big time fraud with no remorse whatsoever. His likes destroy the world. And to think he pays just 1.6 naira per word.
