Wow, that sounds strangely like my situation, 'cept so far it hasn't worked 
out well. He says he's sent the payment, but I haven't received any letter or 
telegram or whatever Western Union notifies you with nowadays. So this 
morning I sent the gentleman an e-mail notifiying him I've suspended work on 
his project.
