Booking online

[+ WmClarke]

How do clients feel about booking online? Is this the new norm?

A new masseur wants me to book online for this weekend. I certainly understand why, from the provider’s perspective.

But I’m leery of providing a credit card online. Especially since I found him on Scruff.

 

Thoughts? Opinion? Advice?

 

TIA

Don’t do it. It is likely a scam.

That’s what I assumed. Sigh

I would never do that. Pass

I'd be apprehensive to provide a credit card number at this stage,  but this could really a viable form of payment for future transactions.    I'd be open,  provided security was clear.   I remember when "paypal"  first came about and I had to get over the "safety principal".    We all have security concerns in today's world.   I think the original posters concerns are valid.

I fell for that once. It was a total scam! Luckily I used my credit and not my debit card. It was still a huge pain to dispute the charge and get my money back tho!
