I have lost £550.00 here due to my stupidity although I hope this post ensures this does not happen to anyone else...
Sorry Tcage, that's a very big chunk of change. As mentioned, she lost potentially years of your patronage as a client, and she lost many more bookings from others as her reputation is now soiled for years to come. Stupid move on her part.
Personally I've saved a lot of money over the past 2+ months while abstaining from punting, and with another 1-2 months of punting abstinence remaining, there will be more money to be saved. So just abstain from punting and you will recoup your losses over time. When you do punt again, continue reviewing to contribute to the community, and we'll do what we can to help you.
As for other members, do we need bigger warnings to tell people to never pay deposits, bank transfers, etc? And if people do pay, never more than cab fare and maybe a few quid for travel time. And if anyone requests an unreasonable deposit, that should be enough to put the potential scammer list. I've seen at least a few people get scammed like this within the past year.
