Do you charge up front for a job?
-
I still think I should be able to dispute the charge.

So the next day I messaged him and insisted on paying the extra $150 for the job. He again said the $300 was fine and promise
Did he do any work at all? If he did, then you probably can't ask for that back - he could sue you for it, potentially.
Sux a ML'er did that.

He did do some work (very minimal), but I never implemented it in a live environment.

Yeah. My partner and I were pretty excited about the quote and plan he had laid out for us. Unfortunately I didn't work out.

I found it that it wasn't, but it was somebody that @Minion-Queen was looking forward to work with on more projects.

No, unrelated, but rightfully suspicious.

What should have I done differently in this scenario?

Is there a good answer to that? I'm not sure. Even when you do everything right, things can go wrong. No scenario is perfect.

Have a contact in place? That's about the only thing you could have done differently. It would still require a court case to get your money back and you likely could get it even without that.

T&Cs, contract, signed and agreed.
I do this for every piece of work I do. It not only protects the client, it also protects me because my own terms & conditions are listed.
Some people have bad patches, so whoever this user is, maybe he or she is going through a rough time and cannot deal.
Deposit up front is fairly standard, it depends on the work involved, what the cost to the provider is, so yes you can charge in advance of work completed, in some cases you should do.

He said, she said.
Never works in online communities. I'd rather we did not do that.

I have zero reason to doubt the word of @IRJ , so exposing a member here with such a great lack of integrity should be done. Brand vendors as vendors, and brand liars as liars.

I am hoping he sees this thread and contacts me so we can fix everything. I will keep him anonymous for a few days.

This video is something you should watch.

I guess I should have forced him to use Paypal. I would have had a much easier time getting my money back.
-
I still haven't heard anything from him and he has been online several times since I posted this.
-
Whoever this is, better wake up, because this is a god way to never get any work ever again.
