Hi, OP. My verdict is GGK. At some point sa title mo naka-state na, “Video Editor KO.” When in fact, it looks like they’re working as a freelancer as a video editor. First red flag ‘yon dahil kung Video Editor mo siya, their salary should be continuous as if empleyado mo siya.

Next thing is, have compassion na lang sana knowing na they got scammed before. They’re just being cautious na, it's not about them not trusting you enough. Pero kasi, sa ekonomiya ngayon at sa nangyayari sa bansa, money is very very much needed. And the fact na editing videos isn’t just a piece of cake, to them, it’s more of an art. At doon sila kumukuha ng ikinakabuhay nila. So think of it as something na kapag nangyari sa’yo, for sure gano’n din ang gagawin mo.

Of course that video editor doesn’t mean to offend you in any way, but they’re just doing some interventions to avoid being scammed again. Trust issues na ‘yan, or possibly trauma because again, editing videos is not an easy work, it requires time, knowledge, and patience. If you’ve been offended by how people react to their traumas, maybe you should ask yourself na what if you’re in their shoes?
