My SEO company I tried out several smaller projects before hiring them full time. Perhaps I am naive as to what kind of projects are arranged here. I can't think of a single thing I would need done I would send some one 1500 bucks upfront I have never done business with before.
I don't charge clients upfront money unless it's going to take a long time to complete the project.

Then again, I don't take on projects without doing a formal contract, checking out the client thoroughly (I need real names, not screen nicks), talking to the client on the phone about the scope and particulars of the project, and doing other basic business due-diligence. I never rely on the "good will gentlemen's handshake" method of doing business deals.

Good news everybody, I got my money back. After Paypal rejected my claim because is services I went to my bank and, according to VISA rules, they demanded proof of services. Scumbag replied pretending he executed nut with no proof, so the bank returned my money.

So, always pay by VISA and you're covered against fraud is my new rule :)

Good for you. It really sucks that he gets to keep what he scammed though. The credit card company ate this one. He withdrew that money as soon as it hit his account and it's gone. He probably spent more time finding excuses than it would have taken to actually do the job in the first place. Fucking amazing.

Glad you got your money back but, I suspect Paypal is not gonna be real happy with you now.
