Hi,
I was scammed inside upwork platform and after working for hours using upwork tracking app and adding memo, the client didn't paied (even though he was supposed to have a verified payment method) and then I just received an email from upwork telling that I won't receive my money because I do not meet the criteria - and I do meet. I'm verified and I used correctly the upwork tracking app during the job - which was testing a streaming app. I also have tons of screenshots and messages that I have sent to client about my findings during the test.
Does anyone know if there is a way to receive this funds?
this platform seems so unsafe to me after that.

Thank you, Nicola! I had answered the emails I received from upwork and I am still waiting for responses.
I am really worried as I worked all these hours, I have lots of screenshots proving it and I only received this communication telling me that I wouldn't receive it.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Laura

Are you working for $455.00, $950.00 /hr with your default $22/hr? You will be denided from protection for sure.

If the client offered this amout, why shouldn't I?
The upwork hourly protection terms didn't say anything about maximum hour price.
