They Stole $2,180.47 from My Payoneer Account in 60 Days. Here's How You Can Stop Them in 90 Seconds.

Every day, thousands of authors receive messages that look legitimate—a friendly fellow writer, a marketing specialist with proven results, a publishing opportunity that seems perfect. By the time they realize it's a scam, their money is gone and the scammer has vanished. Rae A. Stonehouse lost over $2,000 to a sophisticated impersonation scheme that started with a fake "Sophie Kenna" Facebook profile and ended with escalating payments to phantom marketer "Nancy Catherine." This book is the complete forensic breakdown of that fraud—and your systematic defense against the tactics targeting authors right now.

Inside, you'll find the 2-minute profile verification checklist that catches 98% of fakes, email header analysis exposing spoofed addresses, the 14 psychological hooks scammers use to bypass logic, payment processor comparisons showing which methods offer protection, step-by-step recovery tactics for Payoneer/PayPal/Visa chargebacks, real impersonation attempts with line-by-line analysis, platform-specific red flags for Gmail/Facebook/Discord, community defense protocols for writing groups, and contract frameworks distinguishing vanity presses from legitimate publishers. Every chapter includes actual evidence—email exchanges, payment records, takedown requests—plus copy-paste scripts, bookmarkable tools, and 90-second workflows you can deploy immediately to protect your work, income, and author career.
