As a freelancer, on freelancer.com, I got accepted on a project posted by user rikno1 (a.K.A. Seo zoon) on 22th July 13 to build a site. This person gave me all details how this job should be done, but also asked me to buy a theme with my own money and install it on his server and start working, he/she said that in the end he will pay me for the theme and also for the work done. He/she assured me that he/she is a good payer, has good reviews etc. I checked his profile and convinced myself. I paid for the product (stupid and naive me), and started working on the project, after two weeks of intense work finished it. But my employer was not answering. After one week he answered saying that his boss wants to pay me, but only after I buy another product, a module, install it on a certain site and he will increase my payment and pay me immediately. Of course, I fell for that trap again by believing him. Paid for the module, installed it and here i am again. Fooled. After another week, i still have no answer from him, lost time and effort and with a total amount of $304 loss. After some research on internet, I found that this person is a scammer and i will never get my money from him. Please read this and never trust a person with email [email protected].
