PSA: Sophisticated Spamming

So by now, I think most people have seen that silly post that says contact on telegram. 

 

Today, I submitted a proposal for a very well-written and professional-looking job post. The project was estimated at $600, which was a fair price for the job.

 

And what did I get out of that? A spammy message telling me to contact them on telegram for all the deets and ten free connects for responding to an interview. 

 

There's no end to the loops these losers will jump through.

Hello, yes this is spam. I got caught once too. But that's all. Thank you for writing about this. It is important! We lose time, emotions and connections. I think Upwork should be more careful with clients. All freelancers should be aware of these pitfalls. Have a nice day, everyone.
