Anyone here recognize this bullshit?
 

Send PayPal for someone to do work for you and all of a sudden their ICQ does not work or someone really close to them just found out they have cancer?

Or some other line of bullshit.

This shit better stop

I'm hearing stories like this more and more every day. Sure, shit happens, but you gotta honor your commitments. Treat this like a fucking business, since it is. Bunch of retards in the industry, I swear.

Hope it works out for ya, man.

All the time - if they do not deliver charge that shit back...

And with Paypal - ALWAYS select "Goods" and not "Services" cuase they have told me services cannot be charged back (using paypal at least)

:321GFY - to the scammers

trust no one.

send me the work, i'll do it, COD.



BAHAHAHAHAH... sorry, couldn't resist the shameless plug... everyone else does it! :Graucho

Thats why i try to stick with 1 designer, 1 coder, people who worked for me before and who i can trust and who can trust me.

Funny, as im writing, i still owe those 2 people mentioned above money :)

amen

I could buy a decent house with the amount of money I have been ripped off for over the years....I don't even keep track anymore. My asseth still stingeth.

it's ok starting tomorrow if you bullshit me I will post your name here.

This shit got to stop

Did you also hear the I am sick stories bullshit and bullshit.

I am about to do something crazy to catch a few in the fuckin act, it will be nasty.

:waaaaahh Boo fucking Hoo

sounds good.

Do it, out some motherfuckers. douchebags are douchebags, out them.

Not so much the sick excuses, but the "We are waiting to get paid by Worldcom so we can pay you"...that was the last *big* ass fucking. Never heard the I am sick excuses, I am curious as to who is giving you the run around. I have hired two people from GFY with good luck for designs I needed.

COD

Good idea! Or check them out better to begin with. I have officially started a section in my budget & taxes for rip offs.

It happened to me last week but there was no excuse given. Can't find the dude on ICQ at all. He's lucky it wasn't for an unmanageable amount or I would have something for him.

i don't understand why people can't just be strait up. yeah, you might make a quick buck the dishonest way, but it catches up with you. i'd rather have a good, longstanding reputation. more money in the long run.

Whoa. Thanks for that tip!

I think a majority of people offering "services" are fundamentally lazy. That's why they try to profit off of "services".

It's laziness, not greed, in most cases. At least, that's my opinion.
