Cons, cheats and sheisters

[NODIVISION]

I’m not always good at reading people. Maybe I'm too trusting, perhaps a bit gullible at times.



For this reason, I would like start a thread dealing with how to tell if a client is legit.

please post any stories about sour clients, cons, or blatant rip-off attempts ect...

and more importantly, "red flags" or warning signs to observe when meeting or being contacted by a prospective client.

I think this is one thing all of us here could benefit from.

my advice: watch your bitching on a public, heavily trafficked forum.

that said, getting suckered sucks.

Don't ever try to do work for a hypnotist.

no doubt, thats of course why I didn't get specific.

I just thought that a thread with personal experiences and warning signs would be a great resource to us all.
