Fucked over twice today... 03-18-2014, 09:29 PM

Not sure how this is an achievement but I was employed to do some web development for an MC server. We agreed $30 before, then $30 after, he paid the $30, then once I was about 50% through the work I received a charge back. Also I got scammed for $10 by a guy...
MC server IP if you want to do anything to it, feel free. Thanks for the help:

Have fun.

That sucks. I remember me and a friend got contacted around 6 months ago by some rich arab guy who wanted us too set him up with a custom site and forum, being that we never did anything on commission before we were pretty damn happy when he offered us $3000 to do it, however my friend was handling all the negotiations because he was the one who knew the guy, so I figured everything was going well and we were both working our asses off on making it exactly how he wanted us too. I told my friend I was starting to get worried the guy might scam and to ask him to pay a deposit on the work and send him some screens of what we had done so far, the nigger said no and when my friend refused to send over the full site once it was done unless he paid a deposit he blocked us on skype. -.-

Its really hurt when you get scammed whatever it was 10$ or 100$ but it really hurt why people would scam.

Sorry to hear about this mate, but it happens. You just have to find more business so that way you can make the money back.

Well, I've been on the flip side as a scammer several times. All the way to scamming someone out of $2000. If you want to give them a heart attack, dig up every bit of info you can on them, then show them a small bit of it. Had that happen to me once, reason I don't scam anymore because scared the shit out of me. Returned his $200 and was done with it.
But, on the other side. Been only scammed once, and that was of $150 in virtual currency I was selling. Huge pain in the ass because of the work I put in for it.

Luckily you didn't go down in net worth. You just didn't receive the payment. But it sucks none the less.
