    Next time, you should check his itrader. Besides, you should also check the past threads and posts he had made so that you know his background.

    Hi there, I am sorry to hear you were scammed. We have to be very careful on the internet. It is far to easy to fall into a scam. What country are you from? If you are located in the US you can report the scam to the FBI and the FTC just to report the crime. You do not have to pay this person any more money. I am not sure how you would go about getting your money back at this point...pm me with more details. I studied technology crime extensively in college and I may be able to help point you in the right direction. :)

    Hum, strange, how is this senario...I put a buy post up for articles and you told me you could do them 100 per week, we agreed a price and I gave you instructions to start, then you told me you where "NOT AVAILABLE FOR ARTICLE WRITING", you are a scammer.

    geester, I did not scam you. I did not take your money. You just ask me to write a sample. I didn't send in the sample. And now you say this.

    This sucks but all you can do is chalk it down to experience and learn from it

    You also have to check the reputation of the user you are dealing with dear, I checked your guy's profile, he doesnot have any itraders, not more than 35 posts and registered on December, 2009. This doesnot look like a person who can hold a site like that.[/QUOTE]

    I completely agreee , you must check itraders atleast before any upfront payments or in situations like this :(
