ocosa Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 For starters if you want something custom always get it in writing and get as much information as possible from the person. Ask to see their portfolio. There are many freelancers out there just making money and scamming but there are legitimate ones that are really professional. If all you have is a name and an email. You could potentially report this person to the authorities. Here is the link - http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx If you want something custom for WHMCS find a reputable company not a person. As always WHMCS can do custom work for you at a fee. If they are still doing so. I hope you get some justice! Good luck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laszlof Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 +1 for everything ocasa said. The best way to protect yourself is to find a reputable source. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojahed Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Just Get your projects done by a company not a person, Also ask them for their portfolio, by doing this you will be more protected from scamming. G00d LuCk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minadreapta Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 @rob2: that whmcs forum user has only 12 posts here. how come you trusted him enough to send him money? he registered in August 2011, didn't this raise some question marks to you? don't you run some background check on who you're sending money to? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexxterra Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Posters above stated never use a person, use a company, I have never been burnt by anyone and I wont ever be either. But I do not see how you can determine if it is a person or a company? Anyone can register a company and still rip people off! Things to try - freelance sites, they provide some background and feedback, but most of them provide an escrow payment system. - have the programmer install the script or mod on a demo server for you to play with before giving you the code. - if those options are not available, use payment systems that have dispute for fraud, most credit cards and some online sites like paypal - But above all, do research, ask lots of questions and listen to that little voice inside you, it knows more than you think! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanQ Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Sadly I've had similar experience with this guy - avoid! A bit unfair Simon, Paypal has placed a hold on your funds, as I told you as soon as I was aware. However I will refund all monies like I said earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
