I never got paid anything by this scammer. Hopefully my RipOff Report prevented others from being taken in by her fraudulent practices.
Her particular scam was to ask writers to do a lot of work, sell the work to others, and they refuse to pay the writer for the work because, according to her, the work was not acceptable. This was even after she "approved” the writing work in order to get more work done for free.
Asking writers to do work, using that work to get money from other clients, and then refusing to pay the writer, the measly fees for the writing work is fraud, plain, and simple.
I am a very successful writer now and I hope Kristie has changed her ways.

You are correct "Willi Vision" (see I know who you are because you were THE worst writer I ever had), I did not pay you. I originally hired "Willi Vision" to do content for one of my top clients at the time. It was a LOT of content, but he said that he could handle it fine. He of course had other people he had written for as well, and felt that my work for him was not as important as other companies that were paying him. I hired him to do content and he had said he could get it to me by a certain date - and he did not. Then, he rushed the content in and it looked like he either scraped it, spun it, or got someone else to write it that did NOT speak very good English.
When I had asked him to rewrite them because of the grammar and other spelling errors, I was told that I needed to PAY him for these articles and then he would rewrite them. Anyone in this business knows that rewrites constitute that you do not have to pay for the original crap that was sent in. You do, however, pay for the correct content. When I told "Willi Vision" that I would NOT be paying for rewritten work and I would only pay when he was finished doing them correctly, he threw a hissy fit and said he was going to "tell on me".
I know see that he has indeed told on me. Unfortunately, his story does not add up to the truth. Anyone - consumer, business owner, website owner or person that works for me knows that I do pay. My writers know that if they write something and it's not up to par, they will have to rewrite it over again and will only then get paid. "Willi Vision" needs to brush up on his business etiquette as well as employee professionalism - which is something I did not and do not see from him.
In the end, I did not get my content - therefore I did not pay him for the crap-work he sent me. I think in any situation, especially for people that buy content and for people that own content creation businesses, people would and now do understand why I did not pay "Willi Vision" for the work he sent.
As for the sentence in his complaint "She takes all the articles written and resells them keeping all the money for herself." I'm not even really sure what this means. You were hired to write content for my clients and customers. You were paid when you did the work correctly and handed it in. So, how I resold content is beyond me. You knew the deal when you signed up to write for us. It wasn't shady or scammy. You are given the keywords and the information. You write said content - correctly and in a good quality. You send it in. I send it to the client and they "okay" it. If not, you do it over again - without backtalk. If the client okay's it, they take the work and they either use it on their websites or we distribute it for them.
Not that hard to understand.
