This is a mail that I have received from my friend called Johnson and I would like to share it with you. Please forward this mail to all your friends who are into freelancing business.
I would like to bring your attention to the following fraudsters who have duped me and must have duped hundreds of other people. So add these names to your database of fraudsters and don't take any work from them.
1) Paras Yadav - parasyadav@gmail
He will resort to the old trick of giving you bulk work like 400 articles at a time. He will then promise to give you more work if you complete the first set early, say within a week. When you submit the articles to him he will simply vanish without replying to you. Please beware of him. I have suffered because of him as I had to pay my writers from my own pocket as he did not pay me.
Moral of the lesson - Don't accept work of more than $50 without escrow. Do work worth $50 to $100 and then ask for payment immediately. If he does not pay then discontinue his work.
2) Cameron Powers - SlickAffiliates@gmail, admin@slickaffiliates.com
Another fraudster. He will give you work of about $700 for populating his forums or website with content from other sites. Once you complete his work he will remove his website from the current domain without paying you so you cant do damage to his site fopr non payment as he has removed it from the current host. For example, type wwew.slickaffiliates.com and see what happens.
3) Ailen Ebojele - blackwrites@yahoo
The most dangerous of them all. This conman from Africa first gives you work and befriends you. Then he will tell you that he does not have an account in paypal. He will tell you to accept a certain $4000 from one of his friends in your paypal account and then you have to transfer about $3800 to his other friends' accounts. So when you receive $4000 in your account from say person A and then transfer it to person B, he will tell you to keep the rest $200 as your commission for transferring and doing him a favor.
The next day you will find that $4000 has been an unauthorized transaction and that the funds have been illegally transferred. Hence the transaction of $4000 in your account is void. So your paypal balance then becomes negative by $3800 as you have paid the other guy that much money. In this way even paypal will not help you as you yourself have trasnfered $3800 to someone else's account. You end up then making your balance $0 from the negative by paying from your own pocket. So please please beware of guys such as Ailen Ebojele as my friend has become a victim of his tactics. Don't ever accept huge amounts of money from anyone for work or service not provided by you.
