I recently published my first story and right away I got an email sent via anonymous feedback offering to edit stories for me. The email seemed kind of formulaic and inauthentic, and also included outside contact info, so I checked the Literotica account of the sender and that's when things really started to look suspicious.
The account is fairly recent - just a few months old, and has zero details. They've just three favorite authors and one favorite story and never published anything - so really, why would anyone expect them to be a competent editor?
This looks bogus to me, and so I've not replied to them - Frankly I'm happy with the editor I've already got and don't think I need a new one. This whole offer just seemed odd and kind of bogus. Is this some kind of scam?
FYI - My story wasn't written in first person and was written from an omniscient perspective.

and then proceeded to give me some fairly generic advice that didn't seem related in any way to my story, including advising me to write using omniscient viewpoint rather than first person. That advice seemed particularly odd given my story wasn't written in first person and was written using an omniscient viewpoint.

Dear Panty Wrangler!
Your story was interesting...but not too arousing. Sorry, but it's true. But, still, for a first story, you did well!
