I feel this so hard. Why can't people just be clear about what they want?

@zyd @miss__Tery @dorgaldir @actuallyautistic No, they expected the student to draw an analog clock instead of a digital one, but didn't include that in the prompt. Then they behaved like a dick by marking a correct answer wrong.

Someone who was not my publisher set up a fake preorder for my latest book on Amazon.

Some of the information from the fake preorder, including a completely different item in place of the cover art, was imported into the real item.

If any of you is a real person who works at Amazon and can fix a listing after it was targeted by a scam like this, please let me know ASAP.

Yes, both my publisher and I have already reported it.

@bogiperson @bookstodon We still haven't gotten a refund for the fake "Crying in H Mart" my wife spent $5.99 on last year thinking the real one was on sale.

@mattblaze @SteveBellovin @w7voa But pardoning them sends the message that human asylum seekers must be criminal.
