New scammer alert........xxxdvdbuy
 

I already know what you are all going to say after reading this like why I didn?t get 50% upfront, ecc?? but one can only learn from ones mistakes.
Long story short, XXXDVDBUY posts on this forum he?s looking for someone to write reviews for his DVD site for seo purposes, he tells me he does not need a fast turnaround and we agree on 1.50 per review so I wrote 5 of them and because I got sick I didn?t log on to the site for a few days and he banned my account thinking I was a deadbeat, after telling him I couldn?t even get out of bed for 4 days I had to make a new account to write the reviews and continued writing them.
After about 2-3 months and 100 reviews later I tell him he can start to send me my money as I wanted to be paid for each 100 reviews, he told me he could send me a check or do a money transfer to my bank account, I preferred check.
The address I gave him is a valid military po box address as my father is retired air force and is considered STATESIDE shipping and needs to be absolutely shipped using the regular USPS post office and not a private courier like fedex,dhl,ecc, what does he do? He ships it through private courier and it comes back to him and tells me it?s an airport address and I have to explain again why it needs to be shipped using USPS. He told me he sent it off correctly on the 17th of February and seeing as a letter does not take more than 10 days to get here I sent him an email after 21 days and have not received a response, there were other reviews that I was writing and now I can?t even log in to the account on his stupid website. So now he has his reviews and I?m out 150 dollars.
Let this be a warning to fatfoo and jfalcon who write reviews and blog posts, do not work with XXXDVDBUY BECAUSE YOU WILL NEVER GET PAID.

150 dollars? i wipe my ass with more than that.

well we are not all swimming in money like yourself...........so can I have a roll of your toilet paper?

Thats sucks man. :(

yes it does....

Don't give up. I'd write him a few more times before I'd call it quits.

well he doesn't really answer them so it would be hard.

xxxdvdbuy always seemed like a complete retard and failure, I can't believe you were dumb enough to do business with a complete retard.

haha moron.

well I didn't know before hand.....if I would have known I would have refused.

You could have just searched around this board. Most people getting scammed on here aren't doing the proper due diligence to prevent it and that's a fact.

that is true and you are right, even afte rall this happened i searched around and no one had been scammed by him, so I didn't really worry about it.

bump, the people must know.

That's fucked up...

1.50 per review wow nice price :)

Sorry you got burned.

he sounds like a complete loser - sorry you got ripped

yeah basically working for peanuts

Yup, totally agreed. I exchanged a few emails with him and it was not hard to tell that he was either full of shit or a complete moron. Sorry you lost out, but you should have been more careful, especially with someone who is basically unknown around here.

If he is using your reviews on his website, send a DMCA to google and his hosting provider:

When you work for peanuts you usually atract those types of "clients"

PS: Please don't mention fatfoo and me in the same sentence. :)

Sorry to hear it, but you are right. Lesson learned.

Just check out one of his first threads:http://www.gfy.com/sell-and-buy-forum/940568-reviews-written.html

If that isn't a major danger sign I don't know what is.

That idiot just sent me an email with threats and insults. Guess he doesn't like this kind of thing getting out, so I'll just give this a bump.

Wow payout in porn DVDs, thats a funny offer :1orglaugh.

Bump! :)

:upsidedow:upsidedow give it to me to wipe your ass

HE did????? what did it say in the email and what was the email address? how are you sure its the right guy?

Of course it's him

[email protected]

All he said in the email is "your a scammer" even spelled "you're" wrong.

He is obviously pissed about the thread so I am going to try my best to keep it up here.

yeah thats the email addy, i have no problem keeping this thread alive till i get my money and an explaination, he is registered here so its no problem for him to reply.....unless he was banned for some reason.

He's not banned. I bet he's reading the board not logged in though.

Here is to hoping he does get banned.

lol, i sent him another 3 emails over the last 4 days and he never answered me, he is definatly a scumbag and a liar and i hope he fails at what it is he does.
and you know that he knows he's wrong or else he would have posted something already, but he didn't and he is aware of this thread, so you know 100% that he fucked me over.

Most peeps that talk a big game, HAVE NO GAME.

bump for you man to get hard work paid

Must feel nice to laugh at other people's problems.

thank you....

This is the whack job that cried to Eric to have me banned.

It looks like maybe I'll have to send old Eric an email to return the favor.

damn that sucks, i feel bad for myself not checking all this before hand......

Just out of curiosity, why didn't you at least have an epass or paypal account for him to send the money to? It appears as though at one time he had intention of paying you, but after the first one got returned he probably didn't want to bother with the hassle anymore.

It's the principle, not the amount.

You're the retard for using that saying and not realizing how dumb it sounds.

but he "claimed" it was sent the first time.

i have paypal and epass of a friend and he refused both and only wanted to do bankwire but i convinced him for a check because bankwire costs me alot for the transfer.
