    Hi DP Members and Moderators,

    Few days ago a guy with a PM came and he wants the article from me. I gave him 850 words article and he said that he will get back in next 2 days. I asked him today what about the article and he showed up with a prob that his site is not yet up.

    So, please tell is that my fault that if his site is not working. What do you think? I think he is a scammer. I gave him 10 hours from now to decide what he wants to do next. Discard the article or accept it.

    But I also want your opinion about what that guy is upto?

    Regards,
    ML.

    But he can read the article in 2 days and can pay me or can say that he don't like it. After that he can do anything.

    Yeah I agree.. looks like he wants to back out.
    With jobs like this, I think its better to ask for payment before working on the content.

    Yeah I have told him to send the payment in next 10 hours. Tell me what if he is using the article right now? coz that article is really very unique and special coz it's based on latest game which gonna release in November 2008 and my article is about the game review and it's the first one on the internet.

    Try to run through snippets of the article on Copyscape and see what you can find. I hope everything turns out ok.

    You may NOT start threads to complain of being "scammed." You may only leave feedback in the actual deal thread or via iTrader.

    And we do NOT get involved in he said - she said complaints or any private business disputes. You do business here at your own risk and are responsible for your own business decisions in who you choose to work with. DP is just a platform.
