Type of a scam Online Purchase
He even offered a discount if the customer was willing to purchase more than one book.
“Available for pre-order, with a release date of March 15th, 2022.Buy any 2 of the 3 books and get a 15% discount. Buy 3 for a 25% discount "
As of now, none of the 11 mentioned books are available, but they are still collecting direct payments from customers since December 2021.

Nickolas Harold Potter did the same scam in 2017:
"BOOK TITLE:

His eBook was never published. He clearly defrauded customers in 2017, as he does now. They are providing no product in exchange for their money.
His second scam is a new money-grabbing "1000 Loving Voices" Project, which is a membership based community for writer who want to sell their books and get exposure.
I have e-mails from Mr.Potter In which he clearly states his fraudulent intentions with this business adventure.
“What Is The Cost?
The first 100 Author Participants are buying in for $5000.00 US dollars.
After that the cost of participation will be $10,000.00 US dollars.”
“Participation also includes free Lifetime Membership to The Strawberry Man Series of Books & Films.”
“There will also be release parties on six continents where we can all meet and congratulate each other and also get to know some of our fans. This is gonna be fun!”
“Keep in mind that this cost is per novel, not per novelist. “
“The only way that we are going to make the social impact that we want is with a lot of publicity and marketing.”
“And that is why The Strawberry Man will do everything imaginable, working with wonderful marketing, publicity and social media experts, and creating buzz ourselves through our own networks, to ensure that the world is eagerly awaiting delivery of this collection in 2022”
“Further, you’ll be spotlighted with your own page on The Strawberry Man website. You’ll be able to post a video on that page about your book, and you can sell your book through our website, as well.”

Many of his social media followers are dummy/bot accounts. They are an algorithm that pretends to be a real person on the internet so visitors think he has some sort of social media presence.
They are not organic followers, and they are NOT ACTIVE. To drive book sales, you need ACTIVE, REAL followers who are engaged and part of the conversation. That is what gives exposure and, therefore, sales.
He promises publicity, buzz, and marketing, which he can’t give.
His target audience is up-and-coming vulnerable writers. They just try to get a break and sell their books and grow their fan base. This greedy project exploits them.
Every writer who wants to join should ask himself: What do I really get for my money?
They won’t get anything.They don’t even get answer to their questions from this company on their website.
The Strawberry Man already started to sell membership spots before going ‘live’ on their website.
You pay, they cut you off.
