Now that GR seems to be cleaning up its act, the trolls are leaving GR (or being banned) and attacking authors elsewhere.  We just heard about this libel attack against Melissa Foster, best-selling indie author of Chasing Amanda.  Melissa, along with an ENTIRE list of other authors, have been accused of review swapping and purchasing reviews on Fiverr, here:

AmazonAlert

And here:

FiverrReport

This is FALSE information.  We’ve heard through bloggers and authors we highly respect that Melissa is an honorable and ethical person.  These blogs accusing her have appeared just recently, along with this , and are run by a disgruntled ex-GR member who attacked Melissa just recently on the site and was banned for doing so.  You will notice that there is absolutely NO proof on these blogs to verify the accusations.  That’s because those accusations are false.  They are libel.

As Melissa says in her :

MelissaFoster1

MelissaFoster2

Who is the person behind the Fiverr Report?  We don’t know.  Melissa is working on it:

Melissa

Melissa2

We hope that Melissa hires a good attorney and goes after this person.  The attack on her is outrageous and the perpetrator shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it.
