A cautionary tale update

Note to Scammers

 It's November 2 and here's a fun break for those of you slaving away on your NaNo manuscript.

Last week's “outing” of the Kindle Books Promo scam has resulted in some interesting activity.  When we last left our favorite scammer, the account on Twitter had changed its name to @superbookpromos and then to @kindleclubpromo.  Once that last ID was outed on Twitter, the name changed again to @promo_kindle

And then to @kindle_promos


They apparently don't like Operation Awesome [no, we're not upset about that, nor are we surprised]
If you see another name change, please report it to us and we'll keep letting everyone know.  Note to scammer:  you can run, but you can't hide.

Back to NaNo - if you're participating, please post your current word count in the comments here, and we'll all support each other during November!

I know I was ripped off $25, but this has made such great posts! Kind of worth the loss.
