I am a freelancer lawyer here on upwork. Everytime i send out a proposal I see bids that are just on the extreme high side. Just wondering if freelancers are using other accounts to pitch unreasonably high bids to lure them to their side. 

has anyone else noticed this??

Are you referring to the connects, or your quoted cost on the proposal? I have a freelancer and client account. In both instances, I have seen and been the one to have a high number of connects to boost my post. In the times where I have too many invites, I have had to raise my prices.

I don't understand what you mean. Who is trying to do what?
