Ah, so we don't really even know if he sent it the first time or it was just a made up excuse by him. Him not accepting paypal or epass is definitely a red flag.

He is responding to my emails, so he is obviously ignoring you.

He just sent me that.

One of you is clearly lying.

that piece of SH$%, here is the transcript from the emails.

oh ok i understand, so bascially it would be something like:

as far as payment I read on GFY it was 2 dollars, I wouldn't be asking that much but would 1.50 be stretching it to far and is there any wiggle room at all???

as far as transferring funds would paypal be acceptable?

let me know as it does sound interesting.

I can pay $1.50 yes, anything more then this and I have to go with J Falcon which is best in the business and at $2 I would be paying more then I want for something that I could do myself if I had the time. So if you want this job for $1.50 per review then you seem to know what I'm looking for and can do it.

I am not looking for a fast turnaround time because I want them done right. Your example shows that you know what I need and yes it needs to be at least 150 words give or take 2-5 is not a big deal such as long as the review describes the dvd title as much as possible.

Once you sign in and click the title you want just click the "Write Review" button and then do that for each one.

If you wish to start you may.. How I will pay will have to be bank wire, I don't have paypal or epassporte.

---------------------

so where does it say i didn't want paypal and epass? NOWHERE! i asked him and he told me as highlighted that he does not have epassport or paypal.

as for the airport address he is talking about, my father who lives with me is RETIRED US AIR FORCE and married and italian woman and stayed in italy where he still is now and i live here also. the address i gave him is a BONAFIED address and i have recieved everything from magazines, books, dvd's, shirts and anything you can possibly mail and there was no problem, but there is only one thing, anything that is mailed to this address needs to be mailed through the REGULAR USPS POST OFFICE and not a courier like UPS-FEDEX-DHL because the way it works is that all mail goes to an airport in new york then they see the address and it gets fowarded to my fathers post office box in italy, the reason i gave him that address because it takes 5-10 days and you pay as if it was stateside mail, if you send it to my italian street address it takes almost 30 days and costs more.....now what do you think i insisted on?? the american address and i stated 10 times that it needs to be sent through the post office and not a private courier and he did the opposite and sent it through a private courier and it came back to him, so i explained to him in GRAVE DETAIL that it needed to be sent through the regular post office and just to be on the safe side if it came back to him i gave him my italian street address, i'm not hiding anything or hiding my identity.....i mean shit i'll post my address here right now i'm not scared.

as for the broken english, i admit being italian my english is not 100% perfect as i write real fast and alot of times i don't capitalize the i's and write "i" instead of "I" but i made sure that all his reviews were 100% perfect and corrected.....you can go read them if you don't believe me.

so i'm not lying, i don't lie and i have email transcripts of everything we talked about.
and he's not going to pay me?? what an asshat, i hope that everyone here realises what a douchebag this guy is and do not work with him.

Why not just give him your own address, sounds like you made things much more complicated than they need to be.

i gave him my personal street address.....
it sounds complicated but i guarantee you its not.
