  Information
Name:
knoji
Scam Website:
I am hired to an online writing company (http://knoji.com) and I have been doing products reviews for the past 4 month for them. Their rate states that they pay up to $12 per review. I started out getting $7, $8 and $6 the lowest. When I started doing more assignments, the rates dropped to $5 and $6. Everyone in the forum started complaining also. The have hundreds of assignments available for writers to do so many of us take the opportunity to capitalize on them doing as much as we can.

Knoji realizes that the reviews are done at a fast rate and so they dropped even further and started paying $2, $3 and $4. The problem with this company is that they do not communicate and they do whatever they please. When you send them messages, they don’t reply and no one has contact with them.

I have nearly 150 reviews that I did last month that are still pending and what they are now doing is to accept them one by one, WITHOUT PAYING ME! That is the reason I am writing. Knoji is using my work without paying me, saying I will earn article earnings and this is only CENTS. I did not sign up for it as it was not part of the agreement and I would not have done so much review if I knew I would not get pay for them. Each review is at least 1500 words in length with a lot of research put into them.

I emailed them asking what is happening and there is no response. I posted a comment in the forum and other people are having the same issue. They took money from companies to do their work and trick writers into doing them without paying. No one in their right mind would go to work if they knew they would not be getting paid. Can you help me? I want them to pay me for the work I already did. They don’t communicate and they tricked me and everyone they are doing it to.
