Maple Leaf Publishing Inc. Reviews and Complaints https://mapleleafpublishinginc.com

My name is Edward Fisher, the author of the book “The Lands of Inchoate 4th Edition”. Last April 3, 2019, I was contacted by Jessie Lopez, A BOOK PUBLICIST, from MAPLE LEAF PUBLISHING INC CANADA with phone number 1 (40*) 356-**** ext. 206 and toll-free Number 1 (88*) 498-****. Jessie mentioned to me that they got my information from a book expert here in the United States since they saw a good potential to my book that could captivate the heart of the Canadian market. I was offered to republish the book with them making a good and appealing cover, decreasing the retail price and the most promising part was they would convert the book into French for the Canadian market to be penetrated. The whole price was 7,500 USD and asking me to do 30% or at least 2K minimum. The accent of the one I spoke with was hard and obviously not somebody from Canada nor here in the U.S.The grammar during the discussion was difficult to comprehend and out of the box “sales pitching”. I asked them for a proposal to be sent to my email and to my surprise grammar is off, totally off. Giving it hope and try, since I’ve been dreaming of reaching Canada as they can also be a good market, I should say, I was scammed. I paid 2,000 USD and when my son found out this transaction, he submitted the company for investigation. What we discovered were extremely horrendous. They don’t have an actual physical office in 3rd Floor 4915 54 Street Red Deer, Alberta T4N 2G7, Canada, they are just paying somebody to receive and forward mail to somewhere in Asia. Surprisingly, they claimed to be in the business for almost a decade, but as per our research, the company is new and just used an alien from Canada to register the business and just gotten their FAKE PAPERS last October 2018. Their website is new upon checking with domain provider and Maple Leaf Publishing Inc have not published any single book upon verifying with Amazon and Indigo Chapters in Canada as of today. I contacted my credit card company and filed a fraudulent transaction for dispute. God is with me on this, good thing I used my credit card to process the payment since they initially asked me to pay it via Bank Payments or Check. For heaven’s sake, stop this fraudulent business, Maple Leaf Publishing Inc. I am old and retired, people like me shouldn’t be taken advantage of. I am calling all authors and aspiring writers to stay away from this company since they are a member of a pyramid scam.
