Hey Ma, Look, Insane Matt is a scammer.

For the people who don't feel like squinting, trying to read that shit:

This man, who calls himself Insane Matt, opened a thread here asking banners to be done. So, as a designer, I offered my services.

Soon enough we had an agreement, he told me he wanted 48 banners for different domains. So, I did he banners, asked him if he can make upfront payment, he said he can't because he said he was scammed before. It was fine by me, I have clients anyway who pays me after the job is done.

He was rushing me all the time, saying he badly needs the banners. After 2 days, I have finished the 48 banners. I gave him the files. Not long after, maybe, 5 or 10 minutes, he message me and says that his client, who supposedly needed the banners was mad, he says he wants hose banners done using different wordpress templates.

So he told me to pick 34 wordpress templates and make 2 banners for each. I was mad of course, as it wasn't my fault he didn't know what his clent wants. I told him that he should pay me for the 48 banners I have done and then I could do the 64.

He explained and I don't know but next thing I know, I was doing the 64 banners without getting paid for the first 48. Again, he was rushing me all the time. After 3 days the job is done. I gave him the files.

After that, he found a lot of excuses to make, it seems that he has a book of it. He told me that he will contact his partner(suddenly he has a partner) immediately when he goes online. After 3 days, his partner, who supposedly handles 50 people in a company, isn't going online anymore.

He told me that he's be paying the next Monday if his partner still doesn't show up. Monday came, no partner in sight, he told me that he will do the payment by Friday since he will receive his salary by that day(he supposedly earns almost $2k a week). Friday came, he wasn't around, Waited and waited until he shows up on Teusday. So I message him. Now he's saying he'll pay by the 30th. I'm totally mad now, just told him that pay in the next 24 hours.

Well, I expected he won't so gere now is the story...

Insane Matt is not a scammer, he just has trouble paying people on time sometimes

This line struck me as funny. Especially coming from a designer...

that is why you should be taking 50% upfront, hope you get paid man ive been through similiar situations where people play the line that they have been scammed and will only pay after, atleast tell them to leave you a tiny % so that way all the time you waste won't be for nothing if they don't pay. Goodluck!

and for those that only speak Chinese:

这个人, 称自己疯狂的马特, 打开了螺纹这里请求横幅做。如此, 作为设计师, 我提供了我的服务。足够很快我们有一个协议, 他告诉了我他想要48 副横幅为不同的领域。如此, 我他横幅, 要求他如果他能付upfront 付款, 他说他不能因为他说他以前被诈欺了。它优良是由我, 我有客户无论如何谁支付我在工作完成之后。他一直冲我, 说他非常需要横幅。在2 天以后, 我完成了48 副横幅。我给了他文件。不长期以后, 可能, 5 或10 分钟, 他消息我和说, 他的客户, 假想需要横幅是疯狂的, 他说他想要水喉横幅做使用不同的wordpress 模板。如此他劝告我采摘34 块wordpress 模板和做2 副横幅为每个。我是疯狂的当然, 照原样没有他不知道的我的缺点什么他clent 想要。我告诉了他, 他应该支付我我做的48 副横幅并且我能然后做64 。他解释了并且我不知道但是我知道的下件事, 我做着64 副横幅没有得到报酬为第一48 。再, 他一直冲我。在3 天以后工作完成。我给了他文件。在那以后, 他发现很多借口做, 它似乎, 他有书它。他告诉了我, 他partner(suddenly 与他的联系他立刻有一个伙伴) 当他在网上去。在3 天以后, 他的伙伴, 假想处理50 个人在公司中, 不再在网上去。他告诉了我, 他是支付下星期一如果他的伙伴仍然没出现。星期一来了, 没有伙伴在视线内, 他告诉了我他做付款将在星期五以前因为他假想接受他的薪金将由那day(he 几乎赢得$2k 每星期) 。星期五来了, 他不是, 等待并且等待直到他出现在Teusday 。如此我消息他。现在他是说他支付将由30 。我是完全疯狂的现在, 告诉他薪水在下24 小时内。很好, 我期望他不会将那么gere 现在是故事...

LOL at translations.Well it doesnt suprise me since insane matt was source of troubles which finaly caused me to losing 1500$.

damn alot of this going on lately - thanks for the headsup

Damn is this scammer season?

That's Insane

My eyesssssssssssssssss

That is why I always request payment upfront. No way in hell I am going to bust ass and get ripped off.

Well that's a good thing but you can request payment upfront only if you generated good name.

Actually some potential clients still wont make payment up front. Thats when we both part ways.

I've been in this business for 10 years. Id rather agree totally on a project then force an issue. So it doesnt bother me to let a client go that wont pay up front...

you guys are so funny sometimes. lol

and we have a winner!

maybe you know this guy rayman shakuri...he is a scammer too...

What a crazy thread!

This shit keeps getting better and better

See your location

All you guys are fucklarious ... I was really laughing my ass off ..

I owe you all a drink ..

He contacted me for the same job. (i believe it was anyway, the job description fits to a tee) about a month ago. wanted me to make banners for less than 2 dollars each he and thought that was totally fair.

I got the partner that writes the checks schpeel.

anyway... i never took it too serious after the conversation that took place...


disappeared after i wanted half up front. Seemed fair after I got the "im a pimp and make mad bling and rock the blog traffic and am an affiliate manager for silvercash" bit... may or may not be, but seems easy to upfront and know the drill if so...

bump for fun and stuff

Why take a job you cannot afford?
