“Is Your Publisher a Scammer in Disguise? Uncover the Shocking Truth with Just One Simple Check!”
4. Their ads claim to offer editing, cover design, interior formatting, distribution, marketing, and more for absolutely unbelievable low prices, like $399, $499, and $599.
This is the old “too good to be true” advertising trick that manages to ensnare victims who are so excited about the low price that they leave their common sense at the door. NOBODY is going to edit your book for those low prices, much less offer all those other services. Here’s how the scam usually works. You sign up, send the money, and they send your manuscript to an “editor.” If you ever hear from them again, it’s because they’ll be hitting you up for more money. When (if!) your book does get edited, you’ll notice that somebody who obviously does NOT speak English worked on your book.
