Ways to Get Rid of the Scam

I'm new to the UpWork platform and had a chance to pick up a project or two. But half of the projects that I have sent offers are trying to scam me or I understand that they are fake. My points are going to waste. How do you deal with it? 😅

Thanks for sharing. It's true a lot of fake people come on the platform to waste people's time. Very important to identify them.
