Payment Not Delivered by "R-" for Work Rendered

[Mushroomized]

A while back R- agreed to pay me between 33-53 bitcoin for creating an info graphic, (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=78931.0).

I've been paid 4 btc of the 40 he's agreed to pay me via pm so far, (https://blockchain.info/address/15XUdj8CdWTNQjq4g3y5JhbGpiAFrHqQyj), however I have yet to receive the remaining 36 bitcoin.

R claims that the remainder of the money is stuck in Intersango, I have not yet received the agreed payment.

With long delays between excuses, and vague feedback, confusing criticism it's taken a roughly eight hours of work and nearly two months with the constant revisions to complete the project.

Although R is claiming to be unable to retrieve his Bitcoins in order to pay for what he agreed to, he is still clearly looking to spend those nonexistant Bitcoins.

This wasn't spec work was it?

This wasn't spec work was it?

Not really, it was agreed that there would be a payment before the finished product. However, It's been completed, and have yet to receive it.

[Ryland R. Taylor-Almanza]

For what it's worth, I can say that I honestly believe Mushroomized is telling the truth, and not just some scammer looking for money. I've been working with him for a long time, and have found him to be very trustworthy. I remember when he told me about the job he got with this guy. From what I can remember, R- was very demanding, and always found something wrong with Mushroomized's work, and repeatedly insisted that it be redone. Mushroomized worked very hard to meet R-'s demands, and I would hate to see all his work go for only 4 BTC.

I'm sorry to hear this, hope you get paid dude.

[stochastic]

As I am sure you know this is very common with this business.  None designers think they can ask for revision after revision.  I am anti spec work and require payment up front or some kind of escrow before I accept a job.  Get what they want in writing to show to the escrow in case there is a dispute.  I really like vworker for this when dealing with new clients.

You should add the client to the shit list

I bought 8 BTC for PPUSD from R- two months ago, and he still hasn't sent me the coins. I can't dispute it via paypal because I marked it "as a gift." He keeps telling me that he's "just transferring the money now..." but never seems to be able to do it. Pretty much the same story as the OP, he just keeps stringing me along.

I haven't mentioned it until now because I was believing him, and not thinking I got scammed, but now I'm depressed after reading the OP and guessing that I probably won't get my money back.

I think it's time for a scammer tag for R-

[BrightAnarchist]

I wish I had saved more of our convos... but this is all I have.

Okay I am funded!!
How much do I owe you mate.

8 BTC, just send 'em here:

Thanks!

Hey man, please send my coins over. It has been over a month now since I sent you PPUSD.

Thanks,

Hi Bright,
 I am in the process of waiting for a Gox deposit. I hope to get your coins to you soon. I apologize for the delays. Truly.

Sincerely,
R

Still no coins though.

But you can reverse the charges.  If it was funded by a bank account then it is reversible.  Although the amount of time you waited might make it hard to reverse.

I tried to, but paypal wouldn't let me because it was marked as a gift. I funded my PP with a credit card though, not sure if this makes a difference.

Great, a credit card is even easier.  Just call your credit card company and tell them to reverse the charges.  R- has perpetrated fraud and you can reverse charges in the case of fraud.  Don't bother with contacting Paypal as they don't want to reverse charges.

Huh, ok so I opened up a case of unauthorized transaction, which appears to be the only way to reverse a gift on paypal. If that doesn't go through then I guess I can call my credit card company next.

Technically speaking, I bought 12.5 BTC for $70, but only received 4.5 BTC with a promise that he'd send the remaining 8 BTC "ASAP". Since $70 is now roughly the cost of 8 BTC, I believe I am fully justified in refunding the full dollar amount ( which I would use to buy the 8 BTC I am owed, or as close to that amount as possible. )

[Mushroomized]

That really stinks that you got screwed over too, I hope maybe we can still work through this, I hope we can at least get some form of response from R-.

you believe he should pay you 70 usd back and you will return the 4.5 btc and the transaction will have never happened ..............or ........you would like to keep BOTH since the bitcoin /USD  value has changed and you feel he owes you more than 70 usd ?

Not to freak you out, but that was not the right move.  You've committed fraud with PayPal by lying to them for monetary gain.  My recommendation is that you set the record straight when they make contact to get details.  It may mitigate your mistake when you tell them R- told you to mark it as a gift (if that is the case).

You're probably going to lose your PayPal account anyway, or at least have it severely restricted.  You definitely will take a hit when you do a chargeback with your credit card company, but PayPal has left few options.  Unfortunately for everyone who does it, the practice of using "gifts" to buy BTC is not even a grey area, so it's as good as gone.  Everyone who does it knows they're taking advantage of a loophole in the system, so there's little room to complain regarding PayPal.

That doesn't mean that you should write off the 8btc, but just be ready for a little drama from the people in the middle.

*Sigh* This whole thing isn't worth the trouble or risk for just 8 BTC, so I just cancelled the dispute.

Lesson learned: don't use the gift feature if you're sending first. Or even better: don't ever send first unless it's someone you already trust.

I'm sorry about your experience, I wish I could help some how, or we could at least get some form of response out of R.

[nimda]

I thought if you told PayPal "bitc-" they'd hit the reverse button and lock down his account?
A credit card chargeback should be really simple though (I've only done it a few times). I just call the company and say "there's been a fraud, can you reverse payment XYZ?" They ask you a few questions and then you're done.

As for him owing you $70, that's not really correct. If you charge back the whole $70 (which I would do), then you basically got 4 free bitcoins. The payment owed is owed at the time of the transaction agreement.

Nothing is being charged back. I bought 12.5 BTC for $70, but only recieved 4.5 BTC. Therefore I am owed 8 BTC. He does not owe me any USD at all.

I'm fine with just giving R- a scammer tag and leaving it at that, unless he wants to send the 8 BTC to me and also the 36 BTC owed to OP. However, I think that outcome is unlikely.

You won't lose your PayPal account if you call your credit card company and ask for a chargeback because of fraud.  It was fraud on the part of the seller as they did not give you the items you paid for.  I have done chargebacks for thousands of dollars (because of hosting companies failing to live up to their TOS) and my PayPal account has never been closed.

It takes about 30 - 45 days, but the longer you wait the more likely you won't get your money back.

Meh, I'll see what happens. Paypal wouldn't let me cancel the dispute anyway, so I guess in 5 more days I'll know what they're going to do, and then I can just take it from there.

I don't think it's worth bothering beyond that for a measly 8 BTC. I mean, I really don't want to discuss digital currency with my CC company or paypal.

It's more about the principle of it, which is why a scammer tag is basically the same to me as getting paid back the 8 coins. Either way is fine. It would be totally different if it were something like 100 BTC of course.

R- clearly didn't honor his agreement, an IMO should be held accountable just as any other person would be committing other forms of theft on the forum. Not taking action against him puts Mushroomized as well as every other designer here at more risk of the same happening again. If he wants to honor it now, fine, but I have a feeling he is going to continue these pitiful partial payments, wasting as much time as possible hoping everyone will just give up so he doesn't have to pay the total. Those things aside, the promised payment was quite large. He would have to do a LOT of jobs to make that much. I see no reason why he shouldn't see this through. You would expect better behavior from a forum VIP, it makes us all look bad.

Hey mate,
 Well it appears at the time of payment, I offered you $177 for the job. Since then, I have paid you back in inflated Bitcoin prices. Is that okay if I pay you $177 worth total?

To be clear, the agree final price set was 40btc for the work, as seen below.

Also, give me a payment address so I can send the first half of the 40 BTC payment.

Edit: These are PM's

 Well it appears at the time of payment, I offered you $177 for the job. Since then, I have paid you back in inflated Bitcoin prices. Is that okay if I pay you $177 worth total?

To be clear, the agree final price set was 40btc for the work, as seen below.

Also, give me a payment address so I can send the first half of the 40 BTC payment.

Edit: These are PM's

Wow. That's bullshit. I predicted these layered squirming and delaying of the payment of debt would happen. He thought he'd wait forever and everyone would forget, then the price skyrocketed and he fucked himself waiting forever. That profit belongs to Mush. The project has been done for a long time. The delay is completely your responsibility, therefore he shouldn't take a hit in value because you are taking forever. I guess you should just get it over with before it hits $20.

[R-]

Hmm..

edit  > comment below me...

[BrightAnarchist]

Nah he was waiting for the price to crash first

[CoinCidental]

Nah he was waiting for the price to crash first

you cant keep unpaid debts waiting because the BTC exchange rate is not to your liking

if mushroomised did the job for the agreed 40BTC than thats how much he should get .......

not 177usd .....

My point there

[BrightAnarchist]

LOL sorry Mushroomized, I gotta admit that's funny... but only because I'm already paid back.

[Mushroomized]

LOL sorry Mushroomized, I gotta admit that's funny... but only because I'm already paid back.

Yeah, its funny, but at the same time very depressing on my end. 

[TECSHARE]

So here we are a month later, even the trickle of payments has stopped completely, Bitcoin has broken $15, and Mushroomized still hasn't been paid. At what point does this become unreasonable?

Side note:  it is a shame this had to be your 500th post-

Hmm..

edit  > comment below me...

(btw I don't think he was joking)

[ssateneth]

I'm sorry, but some of these scammer threads are really amusing. I /popcorn'd at the pictures.

[Mushroomized]

Yeah, still no more money. Can we get some more pictures in here I need some laughs.

[TECSHARE]

At what point does his lack of repayment become unreasonable? I say there should be a hard date set in the near future for repayment. Mushroomized has been extremely civil and patient and deserves a resolution to this be it payment or scammer tag for R-. It has become quite clear he does not intend to pay his debt in a reasonable amount of time.

Mushroomized could have had opportunities to cash out his rightful possessions at $15.28, the latest peak. That works out to be about $600 total for the project minus what has already been paid (not sure but it is a fraction of the total). Seeing as the delay is completely R-'s responsibility he should be paying the all time high value of the Bitcoins owed since project completion. That would be fair in the strictest sense, especially since he is abusing his leeway here with lack of continuing payments. He is not an insta-loan place or a a bank, he is a designer that completed the work you requested, for a fee you approved, pay the man already.

[rjk]

VIP tag should have been taken away a long time ago, at the very least.

[Mushroomized]

Still no new news 

[TECSHARE]

PM Maged and see if he will take some action.

[BrightAnarchist]

Sorry, I didn't realize that you were looking for a response since the message was more of a FYI.

Anyway, I PM'd R- again to see what the delay is.

Maybe R- = Romney and he needs to money to pay to keep his tax records.

But you can reverse the charges.  If it was funded by a bank account then it is reversible.  Although the amount of time you waited might make it hard to reverse.

You cannot reverse a bank transfer unless it wasn't authorized or the recipient defrauded you. The bank transfer was authorized and the recipient of the bank transfer did not defraud you. Reversing the bank transfer in this case would be like if you wired $100 to your Son to buy books and he got mugged and you tried to reverse the wire.

I tried to, but paypal wouldn't let me because it was marked as a gift. I funded my PP with a credit card though, not sure if this makes a difference.

You cannot dispute the credit card charge. (Well, you can, but there will be very bad consequences.) The credit card payment was made to PayPal, and PayPal did what you asked them to do and did not defraud you.

Great, a credit card is even easier.  Just call your credit card company and tell them to reverse the charges.  R- has perpetrated fraud and you can reverse charges in the case of fraud.  Don't bother with contacting Paypal as they don't want to reverse charges.

The credit card payment wasn't to R, it was to PayPal. PayPal doesn't guarantee that R will comply with the terms of your agreement -- in fact, they make it specifically clear to you that they don't. That's why you have to lie to them to make the transfer. If anything, you defrauded PayPal by exposing them to a risky transaction they specifically made it clear they wouldn't accept.

It's like you went to a bank to withdraw $1,000 and they said, "Hey, don't take that in cash, this is a risky neighborhood" and you said "It's not problem, I have a car waiting right outside". Then you walked around with the money, got mugged, and now want the bank to give you back your $1,000.

(The consequence of doing this, by the way, will be that PayPal will ban you and anyone associated with you from using their service for life. You will have straight up defrauded them.)

With long delays between excuses, and vague feedback, confusing criticism it's taken a roughly eight hours of work and nearly two months with the constant revisions to complete the project.

I've been doing art and making web sites a long time. I started actually selling my work 20 years ago as an illustrator for small time sci-fi, fantasy & horror mags (u likely haven't heard of any and they probably don't exist anyway). When the internet took off I moved into that and have created online ads and web sites for many companies you're heard of. I could probably give you lots of advice if you're just starting out, but you'd have to pay me for my time.

What I *will* impart to you for free, you lucky dog, is:
- never work for spec. We know this, most of us having learned the hard way, yet are still tempted from time to time. Don't do it. Those that want you to work for free, only to pay you when its done to their satisfaction, will never be satisfied or will drive you crazy if you're lucky enough that they arrive at satisfaction. You will go broke working this way. You will lose some clients taking this route, but the clients you keep working on spec aren't worth having.
- when you take a job use a contract in writing even if its informal such as an email. Setup and agree to phases. Agree to get paid 25% or 33% to start and for each phase. Agree to get paid another installment upon delivery of the first round of art. Agree to only a few rounds or revisions (and be sure to define "few" as in 3 or 4). Agree if the client needs more revisions they pay more for those. Agree to final payment on delivery. Agree to only give final files and the right to use said art only upon final payment of all funds due to you. Again, you will lose potential clients this way. Some will not be satisfied upon hearing you won't revise for free until the end of eternity. I assure you a business can be built through honest clients who understand they cannot ask for unlimited revisions. And again, when you work for those who insist on unlimited revisions you are asking to have clients who will abuse you -- there are people who only use beginners so they can abuse them in this way.
- clients will ask you how, if they pay you, they can be sure to like what you deliver. They cannot be sure. They need to be comfortable with your previous body of work and hire you based on it. Some won't, some will definitely. Build your business by doing a great job for those who've hired you because those peopl will be advocates later to help you sell to others who are wary of being satisfied. You will still, once in a great while, not satisfy someone. Art is subjective. We can't please everyone all the time. It may not end well in this situation (i'll tell you my experience if u want to know but its pretty boring) but you will have delivered each phase of the agreement that has been paid to you and at least been paid for your time up to the disappointment. You are selling time. You are not selling web sites or logos. You are selling your time.

Having said all this, I sorta tested the shark infested waters of this community a year ago and nearly got bitten since I did not practice any of what I just preached to you, but I was risking $3 and a half an hour. If this is your career you need to be more careful.

So did you ever get paid Mush? See, she took a loan from me for 10 BTC, and she said she would have paid me back a long time ago, but she never got paid for some work. Now due to the terms of our loan that we set as a joke at the time, she now owes me 1.8 Million BTC, as we set the terms that 200% interest would compound daily after our initial 1 month agreement.

So... if Mush doesn't get her BTC soon, I'm going to have to break her other leg. And trust me, she doesn't need any more deformities. R, could you live with yourself knowing that you are making some poor hideous woman even more hideous as she falls deeper and deeper into debt?

BTW, Mush, it will be 3.6 Million BTC owed in 1 hour and 20 minutes, so you better hurry the hell up.


_{also, hopefully by now, people have realized that I was joking. About the money anyway. I'm serious about having to break her other leg, and the ugly part though}

not at all. i like him a lot, had only good experience with him, excellent written communication.
i just tried to call him several times on skype to discuss more efficiently some technical documentation for a possible project.
and since i could not reach him for voice, was lazy to write everything down, we never progressed.
but in no way he 'messed' whatever in my general direction. just that skype did not work for me
i'm surprised he's in trouble. i was not very active here on the forums lately.
and i once tried to purchase coins from him but could not reach him as well.
but no harm done to me.

It has been 3 months past this post in 27.25 hours. At that rate, Mush now owes me 16,602,069,666,338,596,454,400,000 BTC, and I am tired of her "repayment methods" (Mush isn't very attractive) and I can't break any more bones. I contacted the mob to ask what they would do in this case, and they don't even know. Its not even worth the trouble anymore, so I'll just settle for the 10BTC she owed me in the first place.

Wow, this issue is so old that I've even disabled notifications for this topic (hence my late response). That being said, I did not receive any communication from R- recently, so I don't know what's happening with this.

With that kind of attitude you'd be lucky to get anything more back. R- has already defaulted on this, so it'd be to your benefit to just get as much out of this as you can. One idea of what you can do is to send him an offer that gives him until a set date to pay you back at a discount, but on the condition that if he fails to do so he'll owe you even more than he currently does. Give him a limited amount of time to accept this offer. As a show of good-faith, it would be nice to at least make an offer like this once.

Of course, if you and R- come to an agreement, we would be happy to remove R-'s scammer tag.

Take a look at the infographic created by Mushroomized.

What the fuck.

My eyes cringe; the horrible typography and lack of readability might be one of the reasons why R- defaulted on his payment.

• Crap icons, inconsistent of theme
• Rough edges, made in paint?
• Typography is horrible: poor font choice, line-spacing, placement

Looks unfinished, and is far from polished. I can confidently say a 12 year old, if given the knowledge of Bitcoin, could design something monumentally better than this.

I would never consider paying for such a incompetent piece of crap, if delivered to me. Unfortunately, it was R-'s mistake for agreeing on these terms of payment.

• Typography is horrible: poor font choice, line-spacing, placement
• Rough

Looks unfinished, and is far from polished. I can confidently say a 12 year old, if given the knowledge of Bitcoin, could design something monumentally better than this.

I would never consider paying for such a incompetent piece of crap, if delivered to me. Unfortunately, it was R-'s mistake for agreeing on these terms of payment.

I have became aware Mushroomized does not like direct linking to his intellectual property. And thus has shown the ability to show shock images when users expect an infographic.

Take a look at the infographic created by Mushroomized.

What the fuck.

My eyes cringe; the horrible typography and lack of readability might be one of the reasons why R- defaulted on his payment.

The infographic's ain't that bad as you made it out. I personally find it to be refreshing and to-the-point.

-Snip-

I can accept criticism, but being rude about it inst constructive. And, uh I just changed the link to a screenshot of your profile since you where being rude and this isn't much of your business. So directly lying and calling it a shock image is just... lying? Although you may consider your profile a shock image.

Edit- I would also appreciate if you could just post the link, not actually create an image tag in the thread since it takes up so much space -

He returns! R-, whether you agree with BasementMiner or not, I'd like to point out one part of his quote in particular.

Thx RT. I take full blame for the situation. I agreed to pay Mushroomzed about $140 in BTC while I had an income. When that stream dried up I could not afford to pay him.

[Mushroomized]

Have you sold anything yet? I'll settle for silver or gold in the mail if you want.
edit- or your local currency.
Edit- or just bank deposit to mtgox.

If you do this, I will take 17btc as repayment for the next 3 months. This is the last time I am doing this since I see that you are actually trying to pay me back

around 550$ US, or you could buy that much in gold from ampex.com, or silver- or bank wire directly to mtgox and transfer it to my account on there as well. Let me know.

[TECSHARE]

Mushroomized, at the value these coins are at now you could probably put a lien on this guys home for this debt. lol.

[Rawted]

That is the worst infographic i have ever seen.
