Well I am a very unhappy man, I was looking around for someone to do some work on my Football Club website, but I found someone and it seems the they where a con men they have not been in touch for 5 days now and said work would be done in a few hours.. The quoted me £120 and asked for half the money upfront so I sent it and ever since they have not been in touch... This was not my own money it belonged to thee Football club... I am very cheesed off with this and wanted to know is there anything I can do about these people. Thank you
Were they on DP, if so, what is the username of the DP member in question, do they have any iTrader rating etc... ?
I doubt the police would get involve for an online 60 pounds deal, the payment gateway may be able to reverse the payment though.
Redhall Under 10s Start Training... The guy who scammed you more less ripped 60 quid from 10 year old kids, thats sooo sad you should post the user name and the thread here. whats even worse is you posted "We are a self funded club who work out of run down areas where there is high crime rate" who ever ripped him cant have a soul. Sad Sad world. Can i ask what he ripped you off in?
That is why you should use reliable freelance website like getafreelancer.com ,etc they provide an escrow environment.
try scriptlance.com, its been going for years. payment via scriptlances escrow service or pay after the job has been done. Also people auction for your business.
Sorry to hear about your loss, you should just pay them a small amount for each progress they make until they complete the deal.
I paid cash via paypal and its not from this form...It makes me sick all I wanted was the site updated....and 5 more pages added...I used it from the youth team bank account.... I sent a pm to admin on the site and they have been banned from forum...
It seems that they had a free website portfolio and have done this to a couple of people on the other forum.... Its not me they have ripped off its a bunch of kids..... GRRRGG

How was the payment funded from your paypal account, was it out of your bank or using your card, either way in UK law anyway you can get your money back, if paypal will not let you open a disputer then file it directly with the financial institution that funded the transaction, they are obligated under law to return the funds.
