MrJacques Posted October 28, 2014 Share Sometimes they even get the money to show in your account by using a cheque and then later on it doesn't clear, so you are left without the money. Did someone report the olx ads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Why am I saying this? Because from what I hear, even EFT's can bounce back now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
