    You can file mail fraud charges, plus contact her
    local police/sheriff department and file a claim.   It may take you a while to get your money back, if ever, but she may go to jail.

    She is fraud
    Yes, you are right she will do it to someone again. I had read about her on this board cheating someone but thought that won't happen to me but it did! I will pursue this matter with full determination. Thanks so much for your input!
    I know it will be proven some day.
    The Y chromosome is defective! 
    Explain the fraud, please
    I would really like to know what you think is fraudulent.
    On another note, it is proven that
    addictions are hereditary also. I am not saying everyone who has alcoholism in their family will be alcoholics, but you are more likely to suffer from addiction than someone who does not have a family history.
    see message about PayPal fraud

    I went online one day to check my bank account balance and I was overdrawn. I was shocked. I saw an automatic withdrawal transaction for a company that I had never even heard of for a product that I had never even ordered.


    The only thing that I went through PayPal for was a microcassette player that nobody else had bid on through ebay.  I got that for 99 cents, plus shipping and handling. Incidentally it still works after nearly 2 years.


    I called my bank and was told that the automatic withdrawal had gone through my PayPal account for a company I had never heard of for a "computer software item" that I never received, although I was charged for shipping.


    I spent months attempting to receive a response from PayPal. I finally received an e-mail that said to print the attached affidavit of fraud, but found that the attachment could not be opened  to be printed.  PayPal finally agreed, via email, to give me a telephone number that I could contact and that I would receive that telephone number by US postal service within 2 to 3 weeks. Of course when I recieved the number and called it, I had to leave a message.


    The recorded PayPal voice did eventually call me back when I was not at home and sent me another letter saying that I did not respond to their attempts to contact me.


    Arrrrgh.


    I filled out paperwork at my bank for fraud against PayPal, closed my bank account and eventually (almost one year later) received a bank check from my former bank for close to $300.00 in overdraft fees.


    Apparently my former bank was going to collect from PayPal for their fraud. Whether or not they were successful in that attempt , I do not know.


    My advice is to stay away from PayPal period. It may work for you now, but you never know.  After all, they have all of your information.


     


     


    See, you're just a fraud. Otherwise, you'd answer.

    Innocent until proven guilty .. except on the web
    And apparently if you don't provide a link, that is an open invitatio to be doubted and called a liar? Even without a link, I am perfectly capable of looking into it for myself and I try never to rush to judgment without having all the facts first. It only proves to make me look like a bitter jerk otherwise.
    So we are guilty until proven innocent?
    And who decides what "bad" things are?  The definition of "bad" can change at any moment.  Voicing your opinion on a chat forum could one day be considered "bad."  Anything could.
    None ... trained OTJ and am quite qualified as has been proven (sm)

    Ummmm...whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? Sheesh!
    Lawsuits in America mean something pretrial? What about the chick the other day in a monsoon who blamed her landscaper for snapping tree trunks! Yep, you keep doing your self-righteous dance. I'll keep working and making $$$!
    Like all other things in this world, they're guilty until proven innocent.
    I think that totally stinks! Of course, you're only his mom and certainly do not know everything he does, right.
    Exactly! Mail fraud is a HUGE offense, and it gets worse dependent on how many state lines the

    envelope with the $$ crosses! (Long time E-Bayer who knows the ropes on getting scammed - only happened to me once, but I pursued the guy from coast to coast!)


    Sorry it happened to you, Laura.  Weird thing - I have a C-phone sitting here unused for years and years, and you could have had it.  Now out of nowhere, I need to use it.  But let me know if you ever need one again - I may run across another one lurking in my attic!  You could have it for nothing, girl!!  And with power cord, headphones, and foot pedal!


    Yes a SCAM, huge email fraud..they would notify you CERTIFIED MAIL or lawyer would call

    Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm

    I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank.  When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you


    Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
    ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

    We are not threatening a suit,
    These people stole our lines, we earned way less than the federal minimum wage, and we want our money. I could have earned more money at McDonald's!!! Just FYI, not meant to be rude to you.
    No suit here, sad sack...
    Hey, ME (how original...)- if it's been awhile since you've been there, who could you know anything? I like where I work, and many of my friends do as well. We could all stand to make more money, but I know for a fact I'm making more bank than 90% of you out there, just based on my speed and accuracy and the amount of lines I average. I used to work a FT job AND a PT job and didn't make combined what I make here! You just have to know your stuff, be disciplined at home and good at what you do. Sounds like you were lacking all the way around. Let me guess- you are now an IC, riight? Why- no one would have you? Oh, you like your FREEDOM, riiight...while you are enjoying your freedom, which is just saying you don't have enough work to keep you off the boards all day, I'm putting out about 2K lines a day at a top line rate too. The few times I call in they've been nice (never met any of them though), and they are always sending me thank you notes and stuff. You enjoy your "time off"- I got vacations to pay for! If you want to come back, email me. I'll get a referral bonus!

    You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
    You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
    File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
    Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
    Sorry we cant be Ayran and hairless enough to suit you.

    It is not a class action suit as of yet
    It is not certified class action because MQ filed for the proceedings to be held in NJ with all the other law suits. Therefore, this is stalling the certification of the suit to class action. They have received numerous calls over the checks.

    Of course they cannot offer legal advise as they are not representing all MQ MTs as of yet, it is still the original 3 that filed, but I don't think it would be wise to cash it. That is just me. I know there are those that will disagree and call me names, but thats my two cents.
    You can customize IT to suit your typing needs

    You can customize IT to better suit your needs.


    For marker selection, you can select what marker keys you would like to use from a list of options in Instant Text. Right-click on the phrases advisory and go to Options and Marker Selection. There, you can select what word marker and phrase markers you would like to use.


    You can also adjust the visual feedback. If you find the advisory lines difficult, you may want to start off with using just a few advisory lines. To change the advisory lines temporarily, right-click on the words advisory and select the number of lines you wish to have. To set up the number of advisory lines to a permanent number, you can do so in the Linking Options.


    You can also work with zero visual feedback if you like. Simply hit "Alt-"  (that’s ALT and the "-" hyphen key) to hide IT's visual feedback.


    You may want to try to do straight typing for X amount of hours per day and just use IT for an hour or two and slowly build-up your time each day.


    You can always email the Instant Text tech support if you need any help.


    I was in a class action suit once & got $600

    For that amt of $, I'd be filing suit. I can't believe you're going to

    I was involved in a class action suit
    against PayPal, probably 2 years ago, haven't seen a penny.  I was in a class action suit another time, can't remember who, and I did get some $$, I think about $15.00.   I don't initiate anything, just get e-mails or letters about them. 
    If you want to sue, you MUST have damages to sue for. GO to the DOCTOR or a suit is worthless.

    I've seen enough Judge Judy (I love her, too!) to know this. If you have no damages, you get no money. With no PROOF of damages, you basically have no damages.


    You would need to take pictures of any scrapes and bruises that you have as a result of being dragged, falling, the leash pulling you, etc. You also need a doctor's report.  A judge won't just take your word that you were hurt. Good luck!


    pufting on flarme retardant suit sm
    Professionalism is an attitude, not a particular vocation.

    The collective bantering on this board is the kind of thing that, to me, denigrates MT just as much as low wages and newbies coming in undercutting the rest of us.

    I don't see very many MTs with a good attitude. I am no different, and, therefore, I'm getting out. Big old red flag when I can't even talk nicely to others in my profession. Plain and simple. Do I have a ton of resources? NO. Do I make a ton of money that I can pull this off? NO. I am trying to be smart and patient about it.

    What I read on this board truly depresses me. I see a bunch of negative, defensive, downtrodden, burned out people.

    I know PLENTY of professionals in PLENTY of other fields who have made the decision to work at home, or work part time, because their family is EQUAL priority to their careers. They do not appear to have a priority problem to me, nor do I think they care any less about what they do. They have made tough decisions, made some challenging sacrifices, and have a LOT of discipline.


    Hhhmm, and what color suit are you wearing

    changing verbs to suit nouns
    I do, I do !!!
    I think they will see these newbies run faster and harder than we ever did if something doesnt suit.
    :
    Okay, I hate to be the one to scream law suit, but this reeks of discrimination.

    I would seriously check out the descirmination laws in your state because that is exactly what this is....  Oh as a Large and Lovely girl myself, I am furious along with you.  Okay not that I would ever want to work for a company who had the moral ethics of a flea, but they need to learn that they cannot treat people like this.   Man the nerve..  


     


     


    Who gets tired of changing verbs to suit the noun?

    If I hear this one more time, I will scream.  "There is no masses." 



    Yep, I say a combo suit with the landscapers! And the baby pool owner!!

    Sounds to me like a class action law suit just waiting to happen! nm

    could it have to do with the class action law suit, my credit card company did that once...
    they sent me a check of some money they supposedly owed me because someone filed a class action suit regarding their not posting monies received the same day and therefore charging people late fees, etc.  I got like $3.46 for something or other. 

    perhaps it was a class action suit that was filed, and then of course MQ would have to go back and pay any monies due to everyone regarding the line-count discrepency issue.

    maybe I am way-off, but if it is on the QT, that could be why.  once they pay you off, they are no longer liable, right?.

    anyone else have any ideas?
    Talk about blowing smoke! No one, not one MQ MT has "joined" the class action suit.
    Its not even up to that point yet.  We will be notified and given the legal options via the legal system. So, if you claim you "joined it", you joined nothing - just gave your name to the laywers. Nothing more, so get over yourself.  If there is nothing more to pursue after discovery, you won't be joining anything!
    Work in a hospital and no one cares about quality, unless there is a malpractice law suit involved.

    All anyone worries about is quantity.  The work is terrible and the only time anyone even acknowledges it is when a doctor is being sued.   When my son was operated on I had to marked his leg in permanent marker before surgery because left/right get mixed up so much.  You can tell reports that comes from India and my supervisor sits there and laughs with us.  Due to the "freeze" we haven't had raises in over 5 years.

    Ginger ale. Ginger. It's proven effective for upset stomach.
    You can buy a tummy tea or ginger/peppermint tea at the organic store. You can use powdered ginger if you have some in your cupboard. I just sprinkle a tiny bit on my finger and put it on my tongue. Even Mythbusters proved ginger was effective against motion sickness.
