So I wrote around 10 or so ebooks for a client and long story short they never ended up paying me. They owe me $150 USD. They live in Asia and I live in Canada. Can I get my money through a PayPal dispute or something? Or does PayPal not deal with content and writing services? Thanks, CWS
I don't think Paypal will do much since there isn't an actual transaction in their system (no money changing hands). Have you contacted them (the client) and have they responded? In the future, be more cautious in sending everything you have without getting money back. Send them snippets or samples, or only a few until they pay you. Don't send the whole lot.
Unfortunately, since you gave them everything without complete payment, the only resource you would have is to take them to court, which is probably not going to happen. Where in Asia (big place)? Other than that you could wait to see if they start to use, or sell your content and report them to their host, who probably won't do anything about it depending on where in "Asia" they are hosted. You kinda screwed yourself. You just can't trust people on the web to be honest. Consider it a lesson learned. At least it only cost you time.
