Description
Amazon Creative Hub withheld the book that I wrote and that they helped illustrate unless I paid them $3200 for marketing. Once I signed a contract and paid this money, no marketing was done and fraudulent activities began to occur. They requested money for a booth at a book fair in Texas that they had no claims to. They also pretended to be a publisher and requested money to sell and publish my book. Both activities were confirmed to be fake and fraudulent.
