I took out time to read every comment made here. Find below my humble opinion.

1. @Benscolari or whatever you are called. I can relate to everything you said, however, you are to be blamed for being in business and not knowing how a business should be run. This thread will not be closed for any reason because you have not handled yourself well. A business is a risky adventure. Being a dynamic one, you adopt the agile method of business management. It's not a new thing that some persons delivery poor services but you're not open to the people that work with you. This is the reason you keep hiring new writers. Even if you have successfully worked with over 30, common sense should tell you that a day like this will come. You have been in business and you should be ready take a risk of 50k. You are above it and you can't always be right because situations like this are not linear. You don't expect people who are not into what you're doing to understand the situation. They will always make judgement from what is visible to them.

Without being insulting, Benscolari, you are not a good person. I once had a bad experience with a writer here, I took the risk and paid him because I do not have the strength to be making all these arguments on here. But what did I do afterward? I stopped taking more works than I can execute. It's a painful one, however, you have to do it if you want to protect your reputation. It's very easy to tarnish an image, and you have aided yours.

More and more persons are coming up to share bad review about you. Their reviews shouldn't be washed under the carpet. Bro, you have the money, pay them their complete money. This is what you signed for when you accepted to take more works than you can handle.

Lastly, you have to start doing things right. Your rating on here is very low.


2. @Dominique, I appreciate your intervention on this case. However, outsourcing a work is not something new. Look up this section, it is a subsection of the literature section, clearly described as 'writers for hire'. I am shocked that 'outsourcing a job seems to be new to you.' It's not a bad thing and many freelancers do it. I have a lady I met on nairaland sometime 2017, we have worked together for about a year and 7 months with no issue. I outsource some of my works to her and she just left the country for North Cyprus for her masters.

Having said that, you must put yourself also in Benscolari's position. I have experienced that few times before I stopped searching and took only works my small team can do. Let me share an experience with you. I contacted this guy on nairaland and we agreed on a price and time. He was to deliver on Thursday. On Wednesday, he requested for extension of delivery time to deliver on Saturday. On Saturday, he requested to deliver on Sunday and if he fails, I am free to look for someone else. On Sunday, he failed and promised to unfailingly deliver on Monday. On Monday, same story. So I told him that I am done with him. He started begging and that he has gone far with the work and he is done already. That he will deliver before 12pm Tuesday. I agreed. By 12pm, he promised 2pm, 2pm he promised 4pm. By 4pm, he sent a work that has not been passed through a plagiarism checker. I knew this after he sent the work and I asked if he checked for plagiarism which he confirmed to have to done. About 15 minutes past 5, as I already formatted the work to Kindle and was about to deliver, he sent a mail that I should hold on a while. His reason was that the entire document is yet to be passed through grammarly. I felt used and told him it's over. I almost submitted a work that will get my account banned for plagiarism issues. That was when the guy called me a scammer. I just smiled and forgot about him.
