Ghostwriting Services: Red Flags When Hiring Online?

I'm finally ready to hire ghostwriting services for my book, but I've heard horror stories about people getting scammed or receiving poor-quality work. What are the biggest red flags I should watch out for when browsing ghosting services online? Are there certain phrases in proposals, pricing models, or communication styles that scream "avoid at all costs"? I've seen some services that promise bestseller status or guaranteed publishing should that raise suspicion? Also, how can I tell if a ghostwriter is using AI-generated content and passing it off as original work? Please share your experiences with warning signs so I can protect myself and my book investment.
