Phone Call / AI related mass invite spam

[tiimo]

Hey everyone,

I don't know about you, but I'm getting really frustrated with the increasing amount of mass invites being spammed all over the place by clients trying to gather phone call / voice recording samples for a whopping $5 dollars a pop.

I like to remain on top of my invites and answer all of them in a timely manner, but now that 90% of it is this kind of spam it's just doing my head in.

If these kind of "projects" are allowed on Upwork, can you at least assign them a separate category and prohibit spam to people not interested?

Thanks

This is so annoying. 

I declined and blocked the same company from inviting me but they keep coming.

Upwork must take action now.

Yes, many of us have been getting more and more spam invites every day, some even sent form Upwork Talent Specialists.
