    On January 3, 2024, ***************** from Westwood Books called me to say that he wants to market my book INNOCENT TEARS by distributing to ****** and *****. He explained that at least 300 paperback books should be distributed. Each paperback book costs $3.50 and 300 books totally cost me $1050. He charged my card for $1050. However, he suggested that distributing my book in hardcover would be more attractive. I agreed with him. Therefore, he said that to change 300 paperback books to hardcover books, I need to pay $200 more. So he canceled $1050 and now he charged my card for $1250. He also told me that the money from the sales of the books goes to me. While I was very happy with this deal, when I received the contract, there was nothing that he had told me. When I saw his contract, and meanwhile I learned that those books were only for display, not for sale, I Immediately rejected his deal and asked ***************** to refund my money. In the meantime, I wrote them a rejection letter and demanded an immediate refund. Although *****************, *****, and ******, the three of them promised to have my money refunded, they have still kept the money without receiving any service from them. I found Westwood Books publishing unfair, unprofessional and unreliable.

    Westwood Books Publishing charged me $6,000 to market my books, pocketed the money, and did absolutely nothing. Now they are declaring bankruptcy and working under another name, ***************** **** to scam more people. I even paid for a Certificate of Copyright that they never processed. They have an office in *******, *******. There is no transparency.

    I have told this company several times I've never published a book. Yet they keep emailing me, even after telling me they've deleted me from their database. Enough is enough.What a s*** company
