You were never hired and there was never any work. Those people are scammers and the whole purpose is to steal your money.

In future, do NOT communicate with any prospective clients outside of Upwork prior to being hired. That way you avoid virtually all the scams and also won't have your account suspended by Upwork for violating the terms of service.

There is no "**Edited for Community Guidelines**", just some thief waiting for you to send them money, after which you'll never hear from them again. Both the job and the name are fake. You need to read these tips for spotting scammers:

Exactly the same situation happened to me today! They are looking for new joiner's. Also they offered to pay out of Upwork! But from the beginning communication was suspicious!

I'm currently being scammed by a girl with a chat on telegram... She isn't letting me submit my work via Upwork. She's assigning me 200 screenshots.... I shouldn't do the work right?

Same. But I felt like their offer was too good to be true so I sent them a fake file. 😂 Also, Sharethrough does not hire or is not currently hiring freelancers: https://www.sharethrough.com/careers/fraudulent-job-offers

I am. Currently engaged with one employee is this also a scam? 

[sofia2008]

Communicating outside of Upwork before being hired on Upwork or accepting payment outside of Upwork are violations of the Terms of Service you agreed to when you signed in.

A real client will never ask you to pay anything to work.

Stop communicating with them, report them, and get familiar with the platform before moving forward.

Hi Raja,

I checked the job post you were referring to and it seems that it's already been taken down because it was in violation of the Upwork TOS. As a gentle reminder, you should not communicate with a client outside of Upwork before a contract starts.

Remember that you can use the flag option found on each job post or message anytime you’d like to report a violation. In addition, feel free to check out this post by one of our Community members for common red flags for scams.

Sorry to hear this.

Actually I also got encountered with the same situation. During my project the rules were changed of the company and after completing the project I cane to know that I had to pay 220$ as premium Id to them. After that they'll return my payment to me.
