Beware - mislead for sale, refused to refund.
BEWARE. I'm a debut author, and I reached out about an aggregated list of book review sites that matched relevant keywords. The requirements I gave him were clear and in the email chain, with several rounds of back and forth and confirmation to ensure no confusion. I grew suspicious when I asked him to filter down on a data set of about 6000 on the keywords and he said he had 10k instead, but Anuj reassured me that he could find an increasing this of matches in my niche. I bought the 10.5k. When he said a day after the order he was up to 12k and tried to upsell him, I reiterated requirements yet again. I received a half a dozen excel sheets with mostly unrelated contacts and duplicates. Some were book accounts for specific books with no evidence of reviewing other books, some published bibles... this were accounts that were in a broad "book" category rather than the review accounts he reassured me they were, and there was absolutely no evidence any of the filters I requested were applied. I raised the issue immediately, and then spent hours across multiple files applying the filters and narrowing down to review accounts to see how many matched what I asked. I found 610 accounts with contact info that matched the criteria given, and asked for the corresponding refund. Anuj said no refunds. There was no room for alternate interpretations in that email chain. He lied to make a sale. When I told him I would then need to treat this as fraud, he made it known that he knew where my book reviews were being posted and "would let my readers know about my threat". If I see fake reviews pop up, I guess I'll know why. Happy to share email chain and evidence with anyone who asks. It's damning. This not a reputable company.
