HOW I GOT SCAMMED

in #scammers6 years ago (edited)

Thank you @swissclive for this contest. This is my real story and it happened just few months ago. I also have picture back ups

I am a cellular nutritionist and I'm into sales of nutritionals. I posted one of my products online, its a drink called Aloe Vera Plus

I called and called this man, he didn't pick and didn't send my money. It was painful, so painful. That was how I got scammed by this man and I learnt my lesson the hard way. Since then, I decided my sales will be 'pay before service/product'. Thats it oooo... I hope this teaches my readers one or two lessons to be careful in handling people. No one knows who is who. Thanks for reading. I remain @oredebby

@oredebby, sorry about that, this bad people are just there scamming people. Just yesterday l wrote an article relating to this your topic; there you will find out why people fall into the hands of scammers and how to avoid them.

Alright dear

This is how business goes wrong. Always know whether you trust your buyer. If not, get the money in advance, or no deal.

Wow... M so glad u'r seeing this. Yes ooo... Thanks so much @swissclive The experience just made me learn to keep my business that way. Payment in advance... Half of it at least

Half is a very good idea. Both parties have an interest to complete the deal.

Exactly. Thank you @swissclive I hope I win the contest 🙈🙈🙈🙈
