“Is Your Publisher a Scammer in Disguise? Uncover the Shocking Truth with Just One Simple Check!”
Fake book covers don’t have author names on them. Some of them do but you can’t find the books on Amazon. For stolen book covers, go to Amazon, and search for the book’s exact title and author name. If you find that book, click on the title. Further down on the book page on Amazon, you’ll find the place for the publisher’s name. If that company’s name is not there, they did NOT publish that book.
To find when a website was created, got to https://lookup.icann.org/en, and copy/paste the website’s URL (WITHOUT THE HTTPS://WWW PART!) into the box. For example: publishingmojo.com (yes, that’s one of the scammers). If you’re lucky, you can also see which country the website was registered in. Many scammers use a registrar in Iceland. Those addresses on Icann.org look something like this: Kalkofnsvegur 2, Reykjavik, Capital Region, 101, IS. Note that IS is the country code for Iceland. IMPORTANT: Just because it looks like the website was registered in the U.S. (like through GoDaddy) does NOT mean the company is in the U.S.
