What is going on????

I, like the rest of you, am seeing more and more potential scam posts. I just flagged about 5 in a row, that the person is listing "contact me at this number, text me at this number, or contact me at Whatsapp.

In over a week, I have not received one message that wasn't potentially a scam. Almost every one, wanted me to connect with them outside of Upwork.

Is it me, or is it just getting this bad?

It is not you. Many others have been reporting the same experience.

Just this morning, I have seen and flagged so many posts.

I have seen at least 3 of the exact same post, the only thing different is the name. All of these 3 included Whatsapp number.

Yep, flagging them is now a part of my morning routine along with a cup of coffee.
