Duplicate job posts are very frustrating and costly!

Is there a way for upwork to police these duplicate posts? Sometimes they are posted just minutes apart, but sometimes days. I don't know which to bid on and can't bid on all the duplicates or I run out of connects. I report the dups, but nothing seems to happen. UPWORK - what are you doing about this???

Hi Lorraine,

 

I want to confirm that Upwork has no intention to allow or support scams and spam jobs on the marketplace. On the contrary, our Trust and Safety team has multiple initiatives to identify and remove these jobs from the marketplace. On the other hand, we also encourage you to let us know if a TOS violation has happened by using the Flag as Inappropriate option throughout the platform. You can learn more about user reporting here.

If you see duplicate posts, just let it go. Don't waste you connects on them, as they are probably scams or people trying to trick the system for some gain. 

Maybe, but sometimes they just change their rate scale. Which one do they actually want bids on?
