Beware of this guy http://forums.digitalpoint.com/itrader.php?u=405867 He will first give you one article to write then pay you and once he has your confidence he will order 10-20 articles and then disappear after taking them. He scammed me of $150. Even if you take work from him ask him to pay upfront.
Yes, I can say the same. He is not reliable and he should be banned from this website. I think he is using two different users but I am not sure. PM me for more info.
33% of the iTraders for the guy were negative before you decided it was a good idea to prepay him for work not done? Why not find someone who will take payment after the work is done, and why not use an escrow service? Can I have $100,000 now and maybe do some work for you in the future?
I think the OP meant that the scammer hired him to write one article and paid for it and all was fine; however he then ordered 20 more after winning the OP's trust and then never paid him for his work.
