I need a designer to design a unique music site. Yes an full site. I am a designer myself but do not have time because of the project im currently doing. Pm me for further details. Make sure you post here if your interested. 150 is all i have to offer.
How about you give me my refund montel? How does that sound>? You are the shadiest person I have ever known. I pay you to code my two PSDs in full and you just take my money and sign off when I try to talk to you on MSN and YAHOO... Scheme dont do business with this guy - he ripped me off money and wont refund (he never sent me the coded psd's) Scam artist! If you require proof I will provide it!
i never paid montel for anything because i asked to see the work first, he said he was uploading it, then ever got back to me, but he had asked me for payment already... shady indeed... glad i didnt pay up front
WOW - FINALLY someone else sees what is going on! This dude needs to be kicked off DP - What can we do to get him off the site??? I am already taking him to small claims court - possibly more. I know a guy on lowopacity.com that got his copyrighted images ripped by Montel. (remove space after http: //www.lowopacity.net/showthread.php?t=6716 here is his contact info Phone Number - 301 204 9569 (he will hang up on you if you call) Montel Branch is his real name I believe (although he makes up names for himself IE Jay Baker, jaykeer breeze, charlyl queen)
you should make a thread specifically about him if you want, since my incident was recent some warning may be due, let me know if you do, i will gladly post my experience with him, i already posted about him in the thread where i was asking for work.
I am considering taking legal action against the user - possibly small claims court or a joint case against him. Where Can I create such a post on sitepoint?
Montel, I'll take the job, if you pay in advance, then send some of the money to the people you ripped off.
Watch as he miraculously disappears - HE WILL NOT PAY in ADVANCE . If he does pay in advance its because he is "middle manning" this project. I.E. Offering to do it for someone else for $250 then outsourcing it to you for $150 getting 100$ himself. He will try to rip off one or both ends of the deal.... USER IF FRAUDULENT. Already reported him to the mods - I ended up getting harassment negative points for DP for "attacking" or something. Even though I have only posted factual information. Unbelieveable!
it is not fraudulent to be a middle man, if you are going to build a case to him, stick to your legitimate claims. He took your money, this is the problem, not his middlemanning.
Being the middleman is the way he sets up fraud - that way he can scam 2 people instead of one... His domains have been deleted - dapostman.com and postmanmedia.com but my refund has not been given. Paypal takes time i suppose....
You cheap bastard! You ripped me off, I made him a web template, then when I sent it to him, he ripped me off and didn't pay, and blocked me! Now it's over asshole!! You don't take someone's work and try to steal it!!!! I will make sure this wont happen to any other pro in this forum!
Are you serious with this claim??? Just so you know I may be interested in pursuing legal action - interested in a joint small claims lawsuit? I have a few other people possibly interested. Total claim would amount to over $XXXX - Please PM me if the situation is not resolved.
He said he was "almost done" with a project I had given him. He wanted payment before he released the project. I wouldn't. I PMed him several times, never heard back. I never lost any money, but I did lose time and he obviously lied. Definitely a scumbag.
You all need to give him a negative iTrader rating and rep him til he's red so others are warned and on the lookout.
This guy is a jacka** - thinks he can get away with anything. I found out its some 16-17 year old kid trying to rip people off using his mothers paypal account. He lives in MD... His name is Montel Branch - a definate scam artist!
Good investigation calven. You all should give him negative iTrader Rating so the others will be careful from him. Legal action may not be helpful as he is not mature. For any legal action he should be over 18. NO LEGAL ACTION CAN BE TAKEN AGAINST UNDERAGE PEOPLE. Law says it's all your responsibility not his. He is not mature so dont waste your time in thinking about some legal action. Just alert admin and mod about his foolish activities and also give him -ve iTrader. Regards
