I received an invite that had 'invalid date' and client didn't send invites..

I received an invite (yay!) that had 'invalid date' and client didn't send invites..according to the info under 'activity for this job'- weird right? 

I responded anyway thinking it may be a glitch, but is this a scam? I have read that there are quite a few ways to tell if there are scams on UW but, aside from it being low paying and high expectations it 'sounded' legit.

 

Any input?

 

Thanks in advance!

I checked this for you and the last invitation you've received does have a date on it. Could you please clear your cache and cookies or log in with another browser to check if you`re able to access it under your Proposals or by clicking on the bell icon?

Yes that seemed to work but now it says I received the invite 32 mins ago when I received it via email this afternoon... weird?

I know this is fixed now, but just for future reference: you can't trust the number of invites in the job's activity section right after the invites are sent. It updates very slowly.
