Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? In no way to be critical, but because this is new to me, I looked up what they have to say.
Venmo ... states that the service is intended for use between friends, so you should never transfer money to someone you don’t know. You will not be able to get your money back from a bad actor if you willingly transfer them funds. Might help someone in the future, hopefully. |
Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? Alan Flowers is Not a very common name,,,but I'd bet there are
still a fair amount of men with that very same name. You should list a bit of a hint of his whereabouts, so some other guy named Alan Flowers isn't thought to be this Scammer. :eek: PS, I always get a phone number, if I am going to send someone money, and I call that phone number to make sure it belongs to that person, before ever sending out any money. Not completely foolproof, but at least it would give "the law" a place to start tracking a scammer... . |
Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? Lanny,
That is how Venmo works. You 'send' the money to a phone number. I started using it so some of my younger clients could pay me. Asking them to send me a check or money order is like....well, let's just say I may as well be talking to my dog. Heard |
Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? Venmo,,,I've never Heard of it, NO pun intended. ;):)
It does sound as if it should only be used, to transfer money, strictly between friends that trust each other, correct ? I still like to talk to people, that I don't know, over a phone call to them, before I send them any money... I hope you can get your money back Rock. Getting your money stole by scammers, or anyone, definitely sucks. good luck. . |

Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? Venmo is a product of PayPal. Don't think same rules apply but sending money to a phone number is no different than sending money to an email address.

Re: Anyone know or deal with an Alan Flowers?? From Venmo's web site:
"VENMO SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND TRUST. DO NOT USE VENMO TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU DON’T KNOW, ESPECIALLY IF THE PAYMENT INVOLVES THE PURCHASE OR SALE OF A GOOD OR SERVICE. " |
