Do you think they are a scam or are they actually going to pay people and not steal their stories? Someone contacted me on Wattpad and when I asked what it was about, it was Mega Novel. Yay. So, what have they got to offer? This time around, their message went into a lot of detail than they normally would.
I found it interesting
Interesting they have to say they are legit.

It’s all this quantity over quality, don’t you think? I sent them back with a really nice message basically saying that I value quality over quantity thank you very much. I didn’t have to respond because it could be a bot but what if there was a chance it got to some human eyes?
Don’t trust sketchy messages. Do your research before signing ANY contract.
