The company name is fake, the employer name is fake too. And soon they will be removed from your OP.

 

Please familiarise yourself with the Terms of Service and what you CAN do to avoid scams, before submitting other proposals.

 

Your money is lost for good. But you can learn from this experience and refuse to pay any sort of fees in the future.

Hi Robie Ainna, 


I checked your account and it sounds like you're referring to clients who seem like they were pulling a scam. I checked the jobs you sent proposals to and I can confirm that these jobs were taken down and actions have been taken against the client for violating the Upwork Terms of Service. 

 It would also be best to visit these articles for more information on how you can keep in line with Upwork's Terms of Service when engaging on the website:

You may also want to read up on the "Safety First!" section of the freelancer resources we have compiled, these tips for avoiding questionable jobs, this Community article, and these articles for more information about working safely through Upwork.
