As I stated in another thread about hate, I'll post the same exact answer here:
Yeah, you should be carefull with those new guys, if I was posting a service request, I would of made sure that the person doing the job has been here a long time, visits and posts often, and has a higher post count. HATE just registered about a month and a half ago and only has 40 posts.
You should of searched and did some checking first, here is another thread about him:

Sorry to tell you, but it looks like the 75 bucks will be gone forever and if vbulletin is wise enough, they should ban this guy
