Topic: Please read before conducting business - I would love to be proven wrong someday (Read 277 times)

Yes it was the payment and things are fine now.

My intention was to mean business with me.
I will possibly conducting bitcoinTalk related affairs for his/their business so in that case the funds/payments will have to be either in escrow or I will hold them. Sorry if that was not clear in the other post.

This is nonsense. The OP did the work. You were stalling. It's not OP's fault that you couldn't sort your shit out. Besides you promised multiple times to pay "tomorrow" and that was a week ago.


It's not live because of your own fault. And yes, you can take the bbcode and post it yourself. In fact that's what you should do. You'll need a copper account for that but...


since $50 is not a big amount for you then $20 or so for copper surely is not an issue.


I can see a ~0.0067 BTC TX. Does this mean localxe has paid up?

It is clear that localxe is guilty here and if he pays 50$ only then his position will be clean. But i do not understand one thing which i highlighted above.
After clearing the dues, If he want to do any further business with any member of the forum, why would you be holding the funds in advance. It should be between him, the other person and the escrow provider.

Things are in progress:


This is another incident. I honestly did not have time to make a topic about it, it happened not long before I post the OP so it was really very fresh in my mind.

Anyway I will create one topic about it today or tomorrow. We both were someone able escape from this, mostly me.

Indeed! Or even better, and this goes for anybody: before making any deal, and before shaking hands on how the deal is going to be: make a summary, and then agree only to everything that's in the summary.
Having a chat-log as "reference" complete with "chat language" makes it very difficult to find all the details, and also makes it very likely both parties have different expectations.

This isn't helpful either: when making an accusation, make a complete overview of all the details, keep it as short and complete as possible, and don't add irrelevant information. If DarkStar_ isn't related, don't mention him.

What I got from the chatlogs is indeed slightly weird, but I still think all of this could have been prevented.

I'm with Royse777 on this one.

I'm quoting this as an example of what I meant earlier: you post 1161 characters (917 excluding spaces), 245 words, and it's just one sentence. That makes it all TL;DR and very hard to read.

I see that too, but like I said: this could have been prevented.

And for everyone who read but did not understand once again, the deal we had was to make an ANN and also post it on bitcointalk not make an ANN and send to me. So for those who have foul language as a way to communicate read properly.

For me i see miscommunication and that's that.
OP, it's happened, as i wrote you on TG i mean it, all for the best.

I did not miss to inform such thing in the OP. Read the contents here:
What your developer does or does not, it should not be my business. You were suppose to pay me even before that date. You were suppose to pay me in the next morning when we talked in the first date in TG.

Look I could create a scam accusations against you, I could create a flag against you but instead I created this reputation thread just to get clear understanding from you before I do such. I experienced lack of responsibility, lack of attentiveness that led me to believe that you were not going to pay and also led me to have the thought that you were into something big with the offer we were talking about in the TG chat.


Anyway, I initially wanted not to take the money for the work I have done (as in the TG response of mine earlier) but since you are trying to make the things right, I will give you a chance but this time you always go first with the payments.

I have changed my tag to neutral feedback. It does not matter if we work together or not the feedback will stay until I am satisfied with your business conducting procedures. I can not guarantee any time frame for this and you can not push me for that as well.

And for any kind of offer and stuffs you are thinking about in the forum, will be conducted either with an escrow or me holding the fund from you prior.

I really hope your business delivers that you are promising.

Cheers,

Edit: Thanks everyone who stepped in here and will be stepping in as well. I will lock the topic in the next 24 hours.

That is a BS reason, you should have just paid him as soon as he submitted his work, it's your own problem that the developer was still working on an issue and this has nothing to do with the OPs payments your holding. I didn't opened the file is the most childish reason from some project !

Your reason doesn't seem genuine to me, but paying for the work is a good step forward.

I was not going to reply, but someone from the forum told me if i keep quite there will be only one side of the story and it will be his side and everyone will believe because i am quite.

OP contacted and said he can make an ANN for me, that is true and yes i was ok with that, he explained to me everything and more, i agreed that i will hire him to make me an ANN, 2 days later he told me to check a link with some codes in them and view the ANN, seriously  until now i have not even opened it to see what it looks like, we agreed on a price for 50$ that is true enough, but now what OP missed to inform you all was that i informed him that he should wait while my developer fix the issues of emails not delivering to some users especially Yahoomail users, OP replied to me, what does that have to do with an ANN, LOL, well this part i never noticed because i have been busy and my developer is yet to work as well but not known to me he made the post accusing me over 50$, which is ridiculous, he said i never kept my word but i have explained to him already that he should wait let me get the website email system working properly, and he said he has done the work, that i do not understand how a job is done if it is not LIVE, i cannot steal the code, in what way is it beneficial to me? And why it is more outrageous is the fact it's over 50$.

I don't know how much work it took you to make the ANN, maybe my lack of understanding how it works and time involved made me feel that the work is not done until its live, but i see now  that it is not that way and  others seem to think otherwise and this ANN done live or not it is considered work done.

OP   for your time i have wasted as you have quoted and your hard work to creating this ANN, send me your btc address and i will send you 50$ this instant but i still as i wrote you do not need an ANN right now until after full BETA testing of the site. Sorry for your time wasted and to be honest i belong to many telegram channels and groups i did not notice the message you sent about coming to the forum to complain, if i did notice it do you think i will let you do that, sometimes think properly before you make a decision, i let me emotion get control when i was upset that you did this but then again we have emotions and yours was that you felt i used or ignored you, whatever it is that got you upset  to this point was your emotion and i as well let mine come in, if i did not i would have written here sooner as you also suggested that i come here to write you, but then again for your time wasted to make the ANN which i did not think was a big deal i am SORRY, if the 50$ can make up for it, i will be happy if it does not i hope me being sorry about it makes up for it.

Thank You all

Why did you trust him and did the work before making payments? In the case, it is agreed to put the money in the escrow or send a part / full refund.
The user may have to wait several days and then re-post that topic with a new account.


They have paid before so something is likely to happen.
Anyway, it's been a long time and I think you have been scammed.

DarkStar_ involved was in another case, it was about lending related. I will be coming up with it later in another topic. I think finally I figured the blueprint that was planbed. But fortunately it was a failed attempt.

I will create a flag but I really want to hear from localxe first. It was such a waste of time for me.

If he said he would pay you, but didn't a type 2 flag would be appropriate.  I din't see DarkStar_ mentioned in the screenshots, but I kind of scanned them.  Was he supposed to provide escrow?

Yeah pretty much this is the summary. :-P

I guess he was up to something big! I don't want to disclose much but this is what I figured lately: When user would deposit money in his exchange then he would keep the money and possibly disappear without giving the exchanged amount (he was talking about a massive competition to have a kick start of the site).

Will be editing the OP soon. I know it's boring to read all LOL

A tl;dr would be nice

So if I'm getting this right, localxe promised you $50 for creating and posting ANN thread and then when you did the work (but before posting it) the user disappeared without paying.

The user just woke up recently and there is a large posting gap of 1 year and 2 months (between August 23, 2018, and November 13, 2019.) I wonder where they have been all along and why they decided to make a resurrection now.

The user localxe can explain it better. If they ask you to do anything in advance and talk to your with sweet writing still don't fall for it. You will likely end up with very poor communication and will not get paid.

You have been warned!

I will post details later. Really not in the mood. I was lucky enough today from getting scammed I'm another event lol
DarkStar_ was a part of it as well :-D

Here you have the details,
