[QUOTE="Jasmine, post: 337301, member: 49159"] Many years ago, when I was new to working online, someone offered me a job through social media. After I finished the work and asked for payment, the person disappeared without paying me. I learned from this and started asking for payment upfront for my next job. The next client paid me half upfront, but then vanished after I completed the work, leaving me unpaid for the rest. Even someone I regularly worked with scammed me. They had always paid me in full before, so I didn't ask for upfront payment this time. But sadly a person who had hired me dozens of times and always paid full disappeared without paying. These days I always ask for entire payment upfront. I ask clients to use an escrow service for payment, so that he and I can work without worrying about the job and payment. Escrow can be costly for small payment, therefore, for small jobs, I ask clients to hire me through Fiverr. [/QUOTE]
