Hi Pallavi,

 

Please, don't start working for a client until they send you an offer and you accept it. Invitation to an interview or active candidacy doesn't mean you have a contract yet. If you feel like the job you discussed was in violation of Upwork ToS, please feel free to flag it as inappropriate.

 

Check out this Post for more tips on how to avoid questionable jobs.
