Scam

Project manager for B&N. The job was a scam. I was called to do a telegram interview and I was told upwork do not support the job.
Why my information is being shared without my consent with scammers? I thought upwork filters job postings before posting online. Please let me why this happened? To be honest I am a bit doubtful with the validity of the website and not sure if I feel comfortable to keep my profile here or not.

I'm sorry to hear about your experience, Aydin. 

 

Thank you for flagging this for us. I've confirmed that the job has been taken down because it was in violation of Upwork TOS and action has been taken on the client account. 

 

Please check this help article for more information on how to use the flag option found on each job post or message to report any suspicious or inappropriate content. Also, check out this post for more tips on how to avoid questionable jobs.

 

Thank you!

What do you mean by your contact details shared to them by Upwork?

You didnt place your bid in the project? Or you've been invited to bid?

How do they know your telegram a/c details?
