is upwork a scam?

[#1]

Hey, was wondering what is happening. we went from 12 to 16 connects and i apply and no one calls back and am super qualified. 

Can i somebody please elaborate on this? seems very weird? why do i need to lose my connects if no one answers? if no answer within 2-3 weeks just refund my stuff.

thanks

Hi Karim,

Thank you for reaching out to us. We return Connects when a client closes their job without hiring or we find a job post has violated our Terms of Service. You can find more information here.
