**hybrid** · 11-24-2002, 10:50 PM

**EscortBiz** · 11-24-2002, 10:51 PM

What the fuck?

**pr0** · 11-24-2002, 10:57 PM

Different dialer companies owe me over $50,000

Pretty much all you can do is laugh about it, unless you want to take the chance of ending up in jail for "collecting". Collecting usually consists of a couple busted kneecaps or a emergency room visit.

So you just suck it up & move on....i've learned to deal with it.

**hybrid** · 11-24-2002, 10:59 PM

ok, now it makes sense and is funny. Cool.

There's an old saying in Tennessee. I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee. It says fool me once...

...shame on...uh

shame on...you.

Fool me...can't get fooled again

between rush4gold.com, vipdialer.com, and cyberthrill.com, I've been ripped off for about 5k. That's it though, I've been lucky.

I've been luckier than you then. My "ripped" total stands at around $2k right now. Here's to hoping that that's it.

**.:Frog:.** · 11-25-2002, 12:39 AM

I've been ripped by these fucks:

- porncash.com (still around)
- xpics.com
- cyberthrill.com

It sucks, and you feel like killing them but its best not to.

**flashfreak** · 11-25-2002, 12:45 AM

I know that feeling too...
I'm still waiting for the bucks for 2 months... he told me recently he'll pay me on 1st december... if not I'll start a public humilliation campaign...

Ohhh yes.
I did a bulk deal for this one guy, I made FPA's for 20$ because he ordered so many.. He paid the first $1k or so.. but he still owes me over 700$, and he has vanished from the face of the earth! 700$ might not seem like much, but the amount of work I put into it was worth way more, I was in sort of a deep shit with bills and shit, and then the cocksmoker doesn't pay up. That sucked big-time!

Also there's one person on the board who I'd appreciate would wire me my 400$ as agreed on march. Thanks.

**cosis** · 11-25-2002, 01:50 PM

i been ripped off by this dialer called vipdialer.com, anyone know he ran that program?

**beemk** · 11-25-2002, 01:51 PM

how much did you get ripped for?

**cosis** · 11-25-2002, 01:54 PM

$1,000.00 my kid's starved for food that month

**irisPornKings** · 11-25-2002, 01:57 PM

that's what i did in school!

**danevans** · 11-25-2002, 01:57 PM

Yep, but I still hope to get paid.
(it was a big amount a year back, getting sorted but far too slow.)
And this is not just one person.
Up front % from now on.

**beemk** · 11-25-2002, 01:57 PM

damn that sucks. someone in the mafia should know you can get your knees broken for not paying on time.

**Bake** · 11-25-2002, 02:11 PM

I must say when AMP vent's he dosent hold back.
Been interesting reading the last few days and I have to say it I was right all along.

**EscortBiz** · 11-25-2002, 03:15 PM

LOL, I have no idea.

On an unrelated note, it's a little cold here. Almost so cold that it might Snow.

**CDSmith** · 11-25-2002, 03:32 PM

I'm surprised no one has mentioned trafficinc.com yet. Those fuckers ripped a hell of a lot of webmasters including myself.

**SetTheWorldonFire** · 11-25-2002, 03:34 PM

i'd say 1 out of 30 ppl will fuck you

**archer** · 11-25-2002, 05:11 PM

life is too short for shit like this...

i've always believed if you make a contract you stick to it, no matter what.

there's been a lot of writing about designers not getting paid but i got screwed once by a designer. I paid up front and he never delivered.

I like the ones who screw you out of money and say "I can send you so many customers"
