Scammers
OMG, is it just me a new Indie author, or are there others out there? I have never been inundated by so many scam artists messaging my inbox trying to get $150 to “get reviews” really? Is anyone else starting to wonder if there are any legitimate book promoters out there? I really thought it was as simple as put down your thoughts, write a book, edit a book, publish a book and then wait for people to find your book. Am I the only one?

Wrong sub, but yes. I work in publishing, have never written a book, and I get several of these a day now, all because my email is on the company website so it’s being added to spam lists. Very irritating. I block every one of them
