Scammers continue to target Carpe Librum

It's come to my attention that the fraudulent behaviour identified back in April in my announcement entitled Important Notice: Fraudulent Behaviour is still happening.

The scammers have changed tactics and email addresses but the scam is essentially the same. They're contacting authors and providing a letter of engagement offering paid collaborations in my name, Tracey Allen, Carpe Librum. The scammers are offering four strategic partnership tiers starting at $275 for an 'essential visibility package', $500 for a 'strategic feature package', $750 for a 'premium amplification package' and $1,250 for an 'elite literary authority partnership'.

I'm listing all of their phoney packages and prices here in the hope that more authors Googling my name will come across this post and realise it's an elaborate scam before parting with a single cent of their hard earned money.

I can proudly say I’ve never charged an author a single dollar, but to know these low-lives are still out there scamming authors for outrageous amounts of money in my name is infuriating.

Please let me be clear, I only communicate using the following email address: tracey@carpelibrum.net so if you receive an email from carpelibrum415@gmail.com, carpelibruim@gmail.com or any other email address please treat it as suspicious.

Okay, I think I need to take a few deep breaths now and let you get back to your bookish content while I go and attempt to make a start on a few outstanding book reviews.

Carpe Librum!
