Well, I just got scammed out of $175 by one of the designers on this site: ibizstartups. He asked for $175 up front and $175 after the project was completed.
He fell ill (supposedly) and then never came back online and/or answered any of my private messages.
So, I am now looking for a new designer to complete this project. I will not be paying up front for anything. Once you finish the project, you will be paid. I am not going to be scammed again and be forced to file a chargeback with Paypal.
Thank you for your time
