Well hang on just a minute. I like seeing people lynched as much as anyone else, but I ordered an article at the dirt cheap rate of $0.015 and now I must fulfill my obligation and post a review.
I admit that I was skeptical about "Michelle" due to the grammar in her posts here as well as in our email correspondence. However...
The article I received was top-notch. I couldn't find a single error anywhere within it. According to Copyscape as well as several searches I did with different strings of text from the article, it is 100% unique. It is also thoroughly researched.
EDIT: I hadn't looked at the article since around 4am before passing out. Upon looking at it again, there are a few grammatical errors I overlooked.
I don't really know what conclusion to draw, but I know that I'm happy with what I received. I still don't think it's cool to lie to the community about where you're from. And I'm sort of confused as to where this article actually came from....but....whatevs.
"Michelle", if you are outsourcing the work somewhere then you could have just said that in your original post. No one around here is going to care as long as they get quality work for their money (like the article you provided me with).

You lied about your background, thats a big blow to your credibility, even if you were from the US, your next biggest blow would be that simply put you can't write casually in post. If you can't do that, I can't expect you to be any good at articles. This shit needs to come naturally to you. The two issues together makes it rather hard for people to trust you enough to give you the job.
After analyzing the article closer (after sleeping), it's still a heck of a lot better than what you'd expect from a $0.015/word article coming from India. If it weren't for the lack of credibility, I probably would have ordered more from "Michelle".
I would say most people would tend to go with a credible source even if the work may be slightly less than to go with a source that has already been discredited once before despite that they may offer the better deal.
I still think however, one needs to make their pitch as good as the product
Thank you kingofsp for the review.
I didn't know credibility is such a big issue.
All fuss is about one typing mistake?? No writer is casual while writing the articles, it was just a PM.
I have given a chance to review my service with a discount.
I know i am giving a good service and i have never asked anyone to send me the money upfront.
Its very clear. How can anyone see scam here??

You misrepresented your service from the start. English is obviously not your first language. You're not from New York. You're a liar.
If you had come in here saying "I'm an Indian dude with a decent grasp on the English language, please hire me for my discounted services" there wouldn't have been a shitstorm.
"michelle78" from NY accord (a fine little hamlet in upstate NY with a population of 600 - coincidently it has the highest population of content writers per capita in the world, second only to India pune) never sent me an example of "her" work after she told me she would provide them.
It's really too bad. I was looking forward to having more 1000 word 25 cent seed articles than I know what to do with.
You'd know right
What I really thought was funny was:
to me it would roughly translate into any number of things such as "I didn't know defrauding you would be such a big deal"
Michelle's suffering continues, alas. Maybe I'll hire Karl to write some stuff for me. :food-smiley-010:
So in the spirit of full disclosure I received three articles from "Michelle" this morning.
After quickly scanning through them, they actually seem fine considering the rate she is charging. They even passed copyscape with flying colors.
Who knows if she'll be back here after our hazing. I'm not sure I would do business with her again after her blatant misunderstanding of the concept of credibility, but I'll keep my word.
I went ahead a paid her for the pretty comprehensible 1565 words she sent me @ $0.015 per 100 words. All considered it's the best 25 cents I have spent in a while.

... considering some of us might send a shamwow or acai offer to our own mothers, or a fleshlight offer to our fathers without batting an eye ...
lol (actually the latter might be kind of funny this upcoming father's day)
I don't think that what she did was worse than the douchebag who showed up asking for advice on how to copy landing pages. Yet he's unbanned, but "Michelle" isn't. It's rough justice and a tough call.
I don't know what I'd do if I were a mod. Extract an apology and give Michelle a new profile, mebbe?
