Hey,
I wanted to post this so others wouldn't be taken for.
On the 26th October I sent $250 via Skrill (Moneybookers) as the first half of payment for a website design and coding. It was agreed on Skype that the entire project would be complete within 5 days from the money being sent. His exact words being "i'm very much available and can do it quickly."
He then dissapeared, ignored any emails and Skype messages. When the project deadline passed I told him I wanted a refund, he then talked to me on Skype for a bit saying how he's just had a few delays and would complete everything no problem. Another week passes and nothing is done, so by this time I figured he'd scammed me and won't be completing the project as promised.
It was my fault as I should have noticed his main thread was locked. However even if I had this lock was during a period when there was heavy flooding in the Philippines which explains why he would have let people down, plus he was never banned from BHW.
I have bigger things to think about than 250 bucks, it just pissed me off that he wasted 2 weeks of my time when I could have been working with someone else. I now have a new designer from here that sent me a concept within 24 hours (it looks better than any work wbdzgnr has ever done), so I guess that's one positive to come out of this.
This is him confirming payment on Skype: http://s15.postimage.org/5q5oy6mu3/Skype_Log.jpg
I very much doubt mods will ban him, but hopefully this thread will avoid any one else getting ripped
Peace!
