Hi, I just wanted to make you aware that a job advert in translation jobs was actually a scam. Somebody was impersonating an employee of **Edited for Community Guidelines** offering a translation job for a big amount of money. I double checked and I have seen that nobody with that name was in that company and that other similar scams have happened before.

Hi, I recently applied for that job and for what I have checked there is nobody with the name of the employee in Transperfect. I can provide more information as well if needed.

Hi Kevser,
Thank you for your message. I checked the job post you were referring to and it appears that it's already been taken down because it was in violation of Upwork TOS.
Please check out this course for more tips on staying safe on Upwork and please use the flag option found on each job post or message anytime you’d like to report a violation.
Thank you,
Pradeep

Hi! I just encountered your comment. I have the same situation right now and I was told to talk to **Edited for Community Guidelines**, is this the same guy?

If it's the same situation, stop all communication and report to Upwork. This is a scam.

Hi! I am now translating a task from transperfect with big amount, his name is **Edited for Community Guidelines** and project director from transperfect. Is it the same guy that you're mentioning here?

Ronalyn , did you talk to this guy on telegram? Why did you fo that? Why did you start working for him WITHOUT a Upwork contract ? Some people are begging to be scammed honestly...

Hi! Yes, I talked to him in telegram, I am new at upwork so I am not really familiar with everything, but I searched about the infos that he told and noticed that it was all a lie so I did not do the task that he asked me to do... blocked him an deleted my telegram account.

I forgot the name because I immediately deactivated my telegram account.

It doesn't matter what their initials are; there are thousands of scammers, and obviously they aren't going to give you their real names anyway. Learn how to use Upwork, and read and follow the terms of service; those are the best ways to avoid scammers. And if you don't work harder on your profile instead of just writing two sentences, you will never attract a real client. Upwork is extremely competitive and it's very difficult to find work here; you'll have no chance at all with a profile that only draws attention to your lack of experience.
