She is a writer's best friend.
Today, Panzer made a quick trip to the Writer Beware (R) site. There your favorite traveling kitty boy found a post about a scammer trying to troll site owner Victoria Strauss.
 
In the post Victoria Strauss gives examples of some of the things scammers have tried to do to her in the past. They've tryed to get her kicked out of SFWA and they've included instructions in their scam manual about how to discredit her. She then describes what the latest scammer is doing. This one is impersonating her to make her look bad. The post includes links for all the assorted things scammers have tried to do over the years.

Panzer says, "You know you're doing your job, when the bad guys are afraid of you, and, obviously, this scammer is afraid of her."

Note: This is a long post. Bring whatever you want to eat and drink while you read her post.
