Damn, now that particular market niche has been filled!


Subject: ***SPAM*** Proofreading your essays, reports, dissertations and other professional documents

Dear Student

Do you sometimes feel that minor mistakes in your writing can lead to lower marks?

***.org would like to offer you a service that gives you more confidence in the work you submit. Whether it is a report, an essay, a dissertation or a PhD thesis, we can help you put your ideas across clearly and effectively in perfect English by getting rid of grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.

We can also help you to:

> reduce repetition in the way you express your ideas
> check tables and footnotes for accuracy
> ensure your bibliography is complete

Who are we? The ***.org team is made up of professional academics and proofreaders with many years of experience. We offer you a discreet and efficient service to ensure that your work faithfully and accurately reflects the quality of the content of your writing.

How much does it cost? Our special student rates are £6.50 per thousand words or 0.65 pence per word. Once we have received your document we will give you a definite price according to the following formula: word count multiplied by 0.65 pence equals the fixed price. We guarantee the price will not go up, even if heavy editing is required.

For more information please visit our website ***.org or follow the instructions below:

After you have finished your work please rename your document as follows:

Firstname_Lastname_today’s-date.doc.

For instance, if your first name is Wei, your last name is Lee and today’s date is 2 July 2006, the name of your file would be Wei_Lee_02072006.doc.

If you send more than one file on a day to Proof-Reading-Service.org please name the second file as Wei_Lee_02072006_2.doc, the third file as Wei_Lee_02072006_3.doc and so on.

Then send that file to ***@***.org and tell us your deadline. Please note that this deadline should be the time and date you need it in your e-mail inbox. Make sure you have plenty of time to print your document out, bind it and hand it in at the assignment office at your University.

As soon as ***.org receives your document, we will carry out a word count in Microsoft Word (Tools --> Word count ….). The indicated word count will be multiplied by the rate that applies to you. For instance, if the word count shows 2,093 words and you are a student, you would therefore qualify for our special student rate of 0.65 pence per word, so 2,093 multiplied by 0.65 pence equals £13.60.

Even if heavy editing is required and we have to spend more time on your document than we anticipated we guarantee that the calculated price will not go up. After we have carried out the word count and the calculation we will send you an e-mail and confirm the price and deadline.

Your document is proofread using the "track changes" function of Microsoft Word. This is a standard function installed in most versions of Microsoft Word.

When we have finished proofreading we will return you two files, a tracked version and a clean version of your proofread document. The tracked version is named as yourfilename_tracked_version.doc and the clean version is named as yourfilename_clean_version.doc. Using our previous example this would be Wei_Lee_02072006_tracked_version.doc and Wei_Lee_02072006_clean_version.doc.

The advantage of this method is that firstly in the tracked version of your document you can easily move between the changes our proofreaders have made. Secondly the clean version is ready to print out and you do not have to type in all the changes yourself. Corrections, suggestions and comments are shown in the right-hand margin of the tracked version.

Once we have received your document(s) we will confirm the word count, the price and the deadline. If you have not heard from us within 2 hours during normal business hours after you have sent your work please resend it from a different email account or send the file to proofreadings@gmail.com.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully
