Please be careful about this is very suspicious to me.

I'm not sure about this job post; did they ask you to communicate outside Upwork? 

 

Also, proofing someone's TEST for them so they get a better score is fraud. 

 

And, FYI, your profile has typos. You might want to fix that as a proofreader.
