PublishAmerica Scam: Curious Blog Stats

Blogger.com provides us with a way to see what search engine people are using to find this blog and what key words they are using to find us. Over the last few days, we have seen a dramatic increase in the searches for "Sinthyia Darkness" who if you know anything about PublishAmerica at all, you will know that this is a very well known detractor. What is even more curious, is all the searches for "Sinthyia Darkness killed." Yes, killed as in murdered. The post that they are finding is this one http://publishamericascam.blogspot.com/2012/07/man-with-known-terrorist-ties-threatens.html . Man with known terrorist ties threatens PublishAmerica detractor in the name of PA. There is evidence to suggest that this rumor which is strong among the authors Published with this company is substantiated. This blog has gotten numorous comments from those who were about to sign with PA but read this post about one Brian Smith of Orlando Florida. After reading it, they chose to steer clear of PA. Nobody would ever believe that anybody's real name would ever be SD and there is also evidence to suggest that this blogger was a man. Nevertheless, Sinthiya Darkness hasn't been heard from in nearly two years but clearly, there is still interest in her and the work this person did for writers who would have otherwise been scammed by this publisher.
