There is no 100% garantueed way for both parties involved not to get scammed. With bitcoin, buyer can get scammed. With middleman, both buyer and seller can get scammed. With F&F, buyer can get scammed and seller can potentially still get scammed.

Even if you physically meet up with eachother and hand over the money / product(s) personally either one could murder the other after the deal is done in order to take it back! :p

So personally I'd say using a high rep / trustworthy middleman is your safest bet because at least both buyer and seller can't scam eachother here.

When you or the client pays through F&F in the note have them write like "This is for blah blah and I will under no circumstance chargeback or attempt to take this money back.), usually helps if they try to chargeback after :p
