you don't have to prove that you didn't commit the crime... they have to prove that you DID commit the crime. this is the same everywhere in the USA. did they prove it? if so, then i guess you're guilty. if not, then you're story has additional holes (read BS). i understand you're only 19, but just come clean about things.

Original poster and the coder agreed on a 14 day period to get this solved.

I will lock this thread for these 14 days as there is no use in continuing this in public now. If either the topic starter or the coder needs to add new information, please send me a PM and it will be unlocked.

Thanks marco,

Unfortunately Tim here is yet to pay me the money back. As he has asked for 15 and i have now given him around 40 days and still there is no headway i thought its fit to try here again.

Last time he paid me 20$ out of 300$ he owed me as some sort of token amount immediately after i had posted here. I had specifically told him that i would want my full money back not in some installments(which hurt me anyway with paypal taking its share) but in one full amount by the date end. To give him time i waited for now 40 days+ (which is more than a reasonable time for someone to even earn the amount) and reminded him via emails about the same. Since he chooses neither to pay nor to give any response, there is no alternative but to post here again.

I have seen this thing going on for half a year now on exactly the same pattern, only consolation is that this time he is doing it atleast where all can see.

Simular Problems to this--
First I work on there board then I do what they want
Then they pay me... There statisfied
--
Few days later all the disputes and money goes back to them

Likewise, I did one job (my first from here in fact) and charged the user something tragically small, less than $20 I'm sure. Which he did not pay. It feels somehow more galling to be cheated out of $20 than $200. At least if you're owing $200 you have a reason to be a cheating skinflint.

I appreciate it's extremely difficult, but for the benefit of coders it is very important to know about people who thieve money or whatever equivalent. I don't want to think about how often one user has repeated their roadrunner act because there's no effective way of raising concern.

Tim's story sounds like a pile of BS to me.

15-25k cheques? You mean you are not sure? BS.

In the UK we need something called a cheque guarantee card which has your signature, you need this for example to write a cheque for $100 or more. I don't know if it's the case in the US, but only cheques below this value are allowed without the card. Are you telling us they managed to write 250+ cheques before you realised you were robbed? BS.

None of the places they wrote the cheques have any CCTV? BS.

You are assumed guilty before innocent - unless you live in the congo - BS.

You bought 5K worth of PC equipment before refunding our friend here? Get your prioriries straight.

You refunded $20 as a token? What a weak attempt at reconciliation, I have more than that down the side of my sofa.

Sounds like a lot of what you say is BS. Which is a real shame because from what I saw here I thought you were a decent guy. I know 14 sounds a little like 40 but I don't think you can use that excuse with typeface!

I would hope that your story is genuine, but I see you posted plenty on your sites in the last few months and in my quick browse I saw no mention of a robbery or arrest there, and no period in which you were offline.

A real shame that there are thieves among out community. As that's what it comes down to, petty theivery.

If you were taken to court before about fraudulent checks (not sure if they do that) they can't use that against you now (if I'm not mistaken).

Yes it is. I had some checks stolen back in 1999 and one cashed. Went into the bank, and went thru the motions. Had to do a handwriting analysis and such, but it was fairly painless. Money is insured thru FDIC, so after the investigation was closed (took about a month (30 days)) I got my money back.

His story does sound fishy.

eXtremeTim's complete story is BS... i said so over a month ago. as for acerulezz - you said you filed a charge-back lost month when i first mentioned it, so why are still trying to get your money? if you filed said charge-back, you would have had your money returned long ago. maybe things are starting to sound fishy on both sides?
