Payment

Hi,

I have worked on the Simple Typing Job posted here

**Edited for Community Guidelines**


I am not getting paid. They say that I have to deposit them 100$ and then they will give me payment which is clearly fraud. 

Here is the assignment that I did for them.

Please help

You were never hired through Upwork, therefore they won't be able to help you. You broke the rules by agreeing to speak with a client on Skype or Telegram, and by agreeing to get paid off of Upwork. Do not do this again, and don't bother applying to any more "simple typing" jobs with high budgets - they are all fake. 

 

Upwork already removed the job and banned the client (although there are lots more scammers, and nothing to prevent them from starting new accounts), so that's all that can be done.

You were scammed, won't get your money, and there is nothing you can do about it except for being more careful in the future.
