Hey! Upwork should find a way to kill scammers.

I post a job and the result is 

Why can't they boost 51 Connects?

I hope Upwork will find a solution.

Current boost is shown a while applying. Thats why same selected.

Why you think that them is scammers?

Why you need 51 boost?

Ok. I agree with you.

But If one guy boost with 51 connects, he can go to the top of the boosted members.

Please think why they can't do that.

Because they create a account for my job and boost 50 connects what they can have when they just create upwork account.

50 - 50 = 0

So they have no connects no.(that account will be blocked soon because it's banned in TOS)

If I don't reply to that bid proposal, they will create another account again.
They find another job, then boost 50 connects again.

Does this make sense?

Uhahahha.
Ok. I expect your head can't understand this. Enjoy.

Newbies receiving 50 connects from registration? It make sense. So it is bots. Legal newbie will spend connects to many jobs, won't waste for boost. It also explains where the crowds of people come from at all the jobs.
