What we do to fight plagiarism
Plagiarized papers sold by internet writing firms
We believe it is imperative that you, as our visitor, be made aware of the consequences of using the services of on-line custom essay writing firms. Even though many people are concerned about the security of on-line shopping in general, the currently available SSL-encryption technologies and credit card regulations make it exceptionally safe, so no crook will simply steal your money and get away with it. Your biggest hurdle is the quality of service you will receive. It is quite shocking, but true: Many sites offering custom essay writing services sell plagiarized papers. They are well aware of that and that is the cornerstone of their business strategy. Their writers plagiarize and they just let it go. They entice naive customers with attractive low rates and all sorts of discounts. When you come across a site that claims to sell custom written papers for as little as $10 or even $8 per page, that when you know that you have come to a bogus site. The owners of such sites hire writers outside of North America, and by that we don’t mean Oxford. They hire low-qualified employees in Asia, and Eastern Europe who can barely speak English. What American writer in his or her sober mind would agree to research some complex academic subject and then type 5 pages of genuine text to weave a well structured paper meeting all customer’s guidelines and instructions for merely 10-15 bucks. A typical 5 page paper will take at least 5 hours to write for a professional writer and what professional writer in America would be motivated to work for less than $5 an hour?
Who we hire to work for us
As an internet company, we employ professionals from all over the country who can offer their exclusive talents to the global client. The Internet enables us to find qualified writers and researchers and bring them together without having to gather them in some physical facility. Our employees work from their homes, however, that does not mean we just pull people off the street. Our human resource managers personally interview applicants over the phone, check their credentials, review their work samples, assign test projects to see if their claimed qualifications are real. We do not hire writers who fail our tests, and, unlike some of our competitors, we do not hire foreign ESL students to handle writing assignments. All our writers either already hold a Master’s or are finishing some Graduate program at an American University.
Scanning every paper
Detecting plagiarism is the cornerstone of our quality control. Every paper is run through plagiarism detection and our stringent policies discourage writers from even having thoughts about plagiarizing something. Plagiarism is something that our company can get into serious trouble and we are taking that issue very seriously.
Our writers’ take on plagiarism
“…If I write something under my own name but in the process plunder another person’s words — the word plagiarism comes from a Latin word meaning “to plunder”—I’m the one who faces the potential consequences. These could include loss of income, a damaged reputation, the scorn of colleagues and editors, and possibly even legal action. Further, I’m the one who knows that I’ve plundered the words, so I have to live with the knowledge that I’m a scoundrel and a cheat. In a sense, no one else is affected by my actions — other, of course, than the victim whose words I’ve plundered. In carrying out assigned writing projects for clients, though, the implications of plagiarism are compounded by the fact that someone else’s name is on the document. Now it’s that person who has to deal with the fallout. The client has no way of knowing that the writer has plagiarized. The client has paid for an original document and is entitled to believe correctly that that is what he or she has received. Any revelation that the document is plagiarized in whole or in part falls on the head of the innocent client. The charge of plagiarism may eventually catch up with the writer, but in the meantime it’s the paying client who may have to clean up the mess. The writer now is not just a thief. The writer is also fencing stolen goods. Writing is not easy. Writing a document, especially writing it well, has been compared to giving birth to a rosebush. It’s often painful. A written document represents the creative power of an individual. A person’s words are part of his or her essence, a reflection of the inner workings of that person’s mind. To have that essence stolen is a form of identity theft. But the words can’t be given back, like a watch or a wallet. …”
