We've had a few charge backs by people who we know used the content but as fas as the Internet goes nothing too major.
On the magazine side of ther business it's a totally different story. Sold 6 sets to one company in New Jersey. Second Rights at $1,000 a set he gave me a check.
Problem was he gave it to me in the UK and post dated it saying to wait a few days until the funds go through. Both things make it hard to prosecute him for issuing a dud check.
He was a little surprised when I turned up on his doorstep one morning with a couple of "friends" (they cost me 20%) demanding he pay or else.
Went down to the bank and he withdrew the cash.
Had a few deals like that in the magazine side.
On the Internet side it's business via CC or I know you like my brother or payment on delivery and acceptance.
But the reason this business is easy for scammers is there are too many buying on price. We get a lot of clients buying from us and then going to someone else becasue they are cheaper, soon come back because they find us better value.
