See how the spammers manipulating the job post and taking away our connects

[#1]

I noticed this a few before. Recently, they are increasing. Upwork please take care of these spammers. I have lost a few connects applying for this type of job post. they just made a job post and after a few minutes, they changed the job description. Really troubling!!!!!!

Yes, I noticed the same thing.

I believe scammers are trying to bypass the Upwork filters with this move.

yes, agree. they are polluting the job feed!!!!

I noticed it as well.

In a different situation, I once submit a proposal only to see the job post has changed. The new description/requirements made my proposal looked stupid, but there was nothing I can do.

Allowing freelancers to change proposal will annoy the client? It works both way.

But I also understand about where the money flows from, and also oversupply of freelancers, so I'm not really complaining here 🙄
