I wrote back to her that I don't need the money but she is going to bring very bad things back on herself by trying to openly defraud someone.

Lesson Learned: I won't accept e -checks again

I assumed you whould have done that first.

Especially in this kind of business you whould be suprised what kind of " yahoos" you may encounter.

A friend of mind does readings and one of her past clients almost committed suicide because the client only wanted to hear what they wanted to hear.

Try to be more cautious and figure out the clients demeniur before you do a reading.

I get super people, most of the time. I have the most fascinating and cool clients. I do not accept everyone. If I get any sort of weird vibe, I say I am not able to do the work with you. I have done this many, many times and this weeds out problems but this was another lesson learned lol

Thanks for the wise input, Spool.

For myself, and hopefully people take this for a caution.

A dude, political guy, extended him the opportunity to sell some stuff for me that I had laying around for years.

So far so good, seemed decent enough, it was around 800 dollars or so and he appeared to have the cash to cover it out of pocket.

2 things I ignored:
-Did run his name through google
-one night, the best way to put it, is he had a look of hate and avarice that was a bit surprising.

Fella has been ducking me for a week, and it turns out he was arrested in 08 and found with..wait for it:
-a gag ball
-two nooses
-two pairs of handcuffs
-a 9 mm pistol
-the numbers of the guy he went to see license plate, his home and work number, and a picture of him

Among other things, it appears his female interest at the time was seeing them both and was arrested for banging on this guys door demanding to know what the relationship between the two of them was exactly.

Uhm, yeah, point being, not worried about myself, it's just stuff that can be replaced.

However, for people who don't realize it, just be extra cautious, he semi fooled me b/c he offered a small upfront payment.

Should have taken a page out of YTA's book tbh.

And should have taken it to an astrological and experience level, for whatever reason I tend to attract people with both problems they need to talk about (which I do not mind at all, everyone needs someone they can talk to w/o being a jerk or having an ulterior motive) and agendas that do not exactly involve love for me.

Lesson Learned: I won't accept e -checks again *joker*

I have allowed people to pay me later etc and most people have done that and been honest. I figured that when I got defrauded, I would be tougher.
My friend who is studying to be a lawyer told me to couch everything in "in my opinion" which I do.

This kind of thing is nothing next to the betrayal of friends and family whom you love. I am a cancer moon and mars and that kind of hurt is what really fills my heart with pain. This is a blip on the radar screen but no more e checks until they clear! xx

awwww, {{{hugs}}} for your soft Cancer beating heart....

I understand the betrayal by family... "shunned" --- Sometimes we have to 'choose' our own spiritual families...

No worries about me M29, I'm protected from on high by the guy with beard and good intentions, what does worry me is this dude, if he fooled me, can fool others with far more to lose then I have.
