Always see the money in your account, received not pending on your app or your banking.

Screen shots do not count.

For someone who said they’ve been in business before Alex you seem to be coming across as a bit naive in your last few posts?

I mean yeah. But it was more than ten years ago, and I was young and stupid then.

Now I'm old and stupid...

Anyway. I realise I was naive.

Ok, if anyone was wondering... not the money has not come through

BJC · « **Reply #19 on:** 16 January 2021, 11:52:21 pm »

I'm sorry this has happened to you. It seems like he paid via PayPal and when he saw a chance to not pay after receiving the money back from paypal he did you over, maybe more of an opportunistic scam than a planned one? But still a shitty thing to do.
I never accept PayPal for this reason; if I were you is I'd look on this as a lesson learnt the hard way; if he hasn't paid you now I doubt he ever will.
As a last resort you could ask him to send via PayPal again (he has done so already before so no reason for it not to work) and there may be a small chance that it goes through, doesn't get stopped or cancelled by him or PayPal (although I'm afraid I can't see it happening judging on what you've said)
Good luck x

Alex I'm well older than you, I've been working for almost twenty years, and I still fuck things up. I'm quite sure anybody who says they never make a mistake is either lying or too dumb to notice they have, but either way that's surely part of why we're all here

It's a slightly trite answer, but you're safe and unharmed, and you'll never fall for that one again. Consider the money you missed out on the fee you paid for an important lesson and forget about it.

Thank you, I do. At the end of the day it isn't the end of the world, its just annoying.

Thank goodness, I am so relieved for you!

But in future, do not put yourself through this - ONLY ACCEPT CASH

Really glad it came through!

Definitely drop Paypal as an option. I give clients 2 options if they don't want to pay cash. I offer bank transfer, but the money must show in my account before I get naked. I give them my real name for the transfer - I'm out to everyone so it doesn't matter, but it does reduce the chances of them doing a successful chargeback. The other option is for them to send me an Amazon voucher via email (I shop so much on Amazon that this is basically the equivalent of cash to me!) Again the voucher needs to be in my email before we start. If they have an existing Amazon account then it's usually within 5 mins. If they've made a new account to do this, it could take some hours as Amazon do anti-fraud checks.

are very clear when it comes to prostitution and even if they haven't twigged now, when they do they will freeze your account and take the money back, whether you've taken it out or not.

What do you mean "whether you've taken it out or not"? I guess that means they will put me into a negative balance and then chase me for it?

I guess the best thing for me to do here would be to close that PayPal account entirely to reduce the risk of that happening.

Ok. PayPal is definitely out from now. I was thinking of getting a card reader as well as you can get some pretty cheap ones these days. Is that plausible or do payment processors not allow what we do?

Alex just insist on cash only or amazon voucher for a deposit.

Most places do not allow sex being sold as a business so you will be in breach and clients many times will report you to get there money back.

By the way you were one of the lucky ones that actually got paid in the end by a small percentage of clients that came through in the end.
