ITS  my first time being in here . I tried to use upwork 2 days ago hiring a frelancer for importing data contract . since hiring him I have been having a lot of issue the freelancer kept changing my password on upwork and on the project I gave him since he had to have access to complete the project. I have talked to him but he kept denying . this moning I woke up he took over my account again and paid hilself the escrow money and ended his contract but did not even do 2% of my project. I want a refund of my escrow money and upwork needs to do a backgroud check on his freelancers and make sure there are 2 step verification on the website because this is not safe and I want**Edited for Community Guidelines** fired on upwork because he is a scammer.

Hi Gherdith,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and I'm sorry to hear about the situation with the freelancer. I'd first like to clarify that sharing your Upwork account information with someone else isn't allowed, as this presents a significant security risk for you, and sharing your account is a violation of the Terms of Service.
