I was mortified and befuddled by a review mentioning me that Academica edu kept notifying me of. The mention read as follows: When I inspected the source, that is went to the actual publicatio where this demeaning mention was sid to appear I discover they had using atomatic devices combined phrases from three spatial different sections of the same news letter to create an entirely false nearly surrilous metion my my work.

Therefore I will contact the US. Postal Service Police to file a claim and ask my bank to freeze the funds they stole from me and get the money back from Academia.edu. [Dated. by HS/KH on April 17,...
Read moreThey have got my check for membership , and now that I want to access their web, again comes up with the message that upgrade your membership and asks again for my card number, and there is no telephone number or return mail address that can be accessed . So it sounds to me to be all bogus and I am looking for reporting them to consumer support. The funy thing is that in their web page they show that your money guaranteed to be paid back in one month, if not satisfied then they don't provide any media for...
