Yes, as an online retailer. It happened twice. I used to sell used iPhones online, and then someone texted me asking to meet up so she could inspect and buy the iPhone. I said yes because the meet-up location is only 20 minutes away from my house. I waited for two hours. I sent her messages asking where she was, but she did not respond. I tried calling her phone number, but she was not available. I went home upset about what had transpired. I refused to meet up again after that incident. I sold the iPhone online and sent the package via a reputable courier.

It will be very discouraging if your first attempt to make money online turned out to be a scam and it may never be appealing to you to ever come back to work online again because of the bad experience.
 
That's really very sad. I have never been a fan of doubling money because I would always ask myself that one question; if you're able to double my money his fast, how then are you too making money? Because I know you're more interested in making money for yourself than you're about me making money.
I really love this point. I wish everyone can read this and learn. Money doubling is a scam of highest order. Imagine someone telling me to invest $50 and that in the next 24 hours I will get $100. Which business did he want to use the $50 to do withing 24 hours that'll bring such a big profit to double my money?
