...I'm not sure how he's supposed to pay you with a fake number. And this is happening before all the paperwork is filled out! Don't forget to remind him that since you are working freelance, you need an estimate of how much you'll be taking in annually so you can pay ahead on your taxes.

I wouldn't let them get away with making fake payments to you.

Still no word on this offer, or on the other email.

You might email and ask for a decision since you have another offer of employment that has better pay, yada, yada. Sometimes that will motivate a lad since he thinks that he will lose the chance to scam you into sending him money.

^^^^ That thought crossed my mind. Maybe later today I'll bring that up.

The original lad, who was going to send a check, has also gone silent. Maybe they googled my baiting character and found out who he was.
