Albert Pinos Client refused to pay for delivered verified leads - Ghosted After Receiving Work Internet

I worked with Albert Pinos after he reached out looking for lead generation services, specifically for procurement and purchasing contacts in the Health & Beauty category.

After clarifying the scope, I spent days compiling and delivering a verified list of 3,000 relevant leads. Once delivered, Albert viewed the file and suddenly stopped responding. Despite multiple follow-ups, he refused to acknowledge the delivery and did not make the agreed payment of $600.

When I reminded him of the terms, he eventually blocked me on LinkedIn — the only platform we had been communicating on.

This is a clear case of non-payment and unethical behavior, where a freelancer was taken advantage of after fulfilling their side of the agreement.

I am sharing this to warn other professionals, service providers, and freelancers. Always insist on escrow, written agreements, or secure platforms before delivering any work — especially when dealing with individuals who show evasive behavior.

If anyone else has had similar experiences with this individual, feel free to reach out.
