    Exclamation IAmPayton: Fake?

    Hello,

    is IAmPayton fake?

    I payed 8 days ago but nothing received nor he's not responding my e-mails. I sent over 4 emails but no response. He promised me: "within 3 days, you will see preview, after 1 weeks you will receive the psd"

    I'm gonna open a dispute on Paypal because I think he's fake.

    If you search for Payton on this forum and this is the same guy you'll see that he's anything else but a fake, yet a bit unsteady in his responsiveness, to put it mildly.

    I know Payton personally actually, he seems to have his ups and downs I will admit that but his quality is always good and works out.

    Sadly, this event is not the first I have seen.

    I would not put him down as a "Fake", but probably a little under the weather?

    Before payment: Our communication was really fast.
    After payment: No communication.. that's why I'm scared.

    I think hes really busy but sending a reply to an email tooks max 5 mins.

    Anyway thanks for responses.
    I'll not open a dispute.. I'll wait..

    You could add him on AIM: PaytonDesigns

    I am not sure if and when he would be on, but another contact method.

    (07/06/2011 Today) I received nothing yet.

    I got only several Promising E-mails from Iampayton, nothing more..

    I'm gonna take my swords out.

    I did a quick search about them and I found a few great reviews.
    I think you can contact them for the last time and hear if there's any news from them and letting them know what you are going to do..

    well well well .. I posted 2 mails yesterday but no response.. today I posted another 2 mails for a refund request. He promised me several times but I see it mean's nothing for him.. just a word.. that's sad.. I lost 4 weeks during this progress..

    at the end of this story, I learned that IAMPAYTON=FAKE!

    I'll post all emails which I received in those 4 weeks.

    he owns this company: http://www.boxobsessed.com/

    I've seen him invite me to live chat quite a few times the past few days. See if you can catch him on there and get a response. that way you can tell if he's really scammin ya or not. demand a phone call with him, you have every right...you paid.

    let me know how things go

    Thank you Patrick.

    tbh I think he did nothing in those 4 weeks. I mean, not designed anything for me.

    I'm waiting a single reply from him.. Today is the last day for this story and then, I'll open a dispute and post all emails.

    I'll try to catch him on live chat too.

    Good luck, I'll try to contact him as well and point him to this post. One of my friends use to work for him, so I'll ask him too.

    Boxobsessed even being owned by Payton is that he has a partner to manages it as well, so it might not be Payton himself doing it.

    Well we used him for one whmcs integration and were 100% satisfied, all completed in 48h. For a second site, after one month there were nothing he could show to us despite many "promises". We opened a Paypal dispute and he refunded quickly the payment.
    The guy is not a fake/scammer, he just has poor time management skills and take on more projects that he can realistically do by himself

    I wouldn't say he's a scammer (just takes a bit of time to get things done). The quality of work is quite good though when done
    Nothing here right now.

    Took about a month to get my design completed / coded. His problem is taking on a bajillion projects at once. It's worth it if you're not in a rush. He's well known for the web hosting designs he creates.

    Your dispute is open

    Thank you. We’ll email you when the seller responds. If the seller does not respond, your dispute will automatically close on 28 Jun 2011 unless you escalate it to a PayPal claim. Don't worry; we'll email you a reminder before the dispute automatically closes. Please note that when you escalate a dispute to a claim, you're asking PayPal to review the case and decide the outcome.
    To learn more about the PayPal dispute resolution process, review our step-by-step tutorials.

    That is not my problem, before I pay, we had a deal about time-frame. I told him that time is very important for me to finish my product! He promised: "Next week". All of those things happened 4 weeks ago lol.. since then I received nothing

    ^ Yes, but Payton was not banned for the reasons you might be thinking.
