Exposed: The Shocking Facebook Ad Scam That Nearly Ruined My Publishing Dreams
But…something was a bit off. The rep, with an Anglicized name that I won’t repeat here (have you ever met the director of “Dogma?”), spoke excellent English…but off. Long pauses after what I said (more than once, I asked, “Are you there?”). Then, his presentation would sound great until a syl-LAB-ble would have the wrong em-PHAS-is. Repeatedly.
I looked at their website and it was nice and reassuring, with testimonials by authors and a portfolio of book covers. I got out a virtual shovel and started digging. Well, the authors weren’t findable, or were characters in books instead of titled authors, and the two authors who did show up had profession-specific short books with zero reviews, which is sub-optimal when thinking of a marketing proposal.
