Thumbs down Scott420 - WARNING to all buyers

This public service announcement is brought to you by Georgia Poker

Karmojo is getting ready to launch a new service to the affiliate community and as we were working with some of the other providers here at PAP, we placed orders for content from writers such as Scott420.

Unfortunately, he has taken the money we sent as a deposit for a large order and ran. The work was due this past Sunday and to date, he's no responded to any email or the ***P@l dispute that was opened.

I would suggest anyone looking for low-cost content to steer clear of this person.

this is quite surprising me... he has written many articles for me and they were really nice... one time there was a little delay and i didnt hear back from him for a day or two but other than that, he was very nice to work with.

Recently i have not seen him online, too, maybe something has come up...

Indeed, he did send the first small order over to me with no issues. There were some basic mistakes with grammar and spelling but nothing major.

The problem I have is that he's non-responsive now despite my email(s) to him asking to resolve the issue. All he had to do was reply back and inform me that he's running behind. Instead, he's choosing to ignore my requests and hold the deposit while nothing has been delivered.

If he does pop up and return the deposit and/or deliver the content order, I'll be the first to come here and inform the forum.

Probably for the best - I bought one really crappy article from him.

So was you outsourcing your clients work to him?

I've had a few questions about whether I was outsourcing my writing to him.

The answer is no, I don't outsource to any of the providers here in the PAP forums. Our writers are either on staff or under contract to work for us.


I had Scott working on prepared content for an upcoming portal that Karmojo is launching. Users that would access this new portal would know that the writers are not employees of Karmojo.

I think it is ridiculous that people are willing to "steal" money off other people and leave them hanging out to dry. Scott420 seemed like someone that actually WAS delivering, although the quality was not always that good.

GEORGIA POKER: Contact me pm and i will personally make up for it if he does not respond at all. I will not have the name of Content providers here smudged by individuals.

Scott finally contacted me so right now we're working to get this resolved. My last resort was having to come here and mention the issue. However, since money was involved I felt compelled to inform the other members here.

It appears we're going to resolve it and if we're able to do so, I'm happy to get a mod to delete the thread to avoid any confusion.
