I lost my crypto by scammer on Upwork!

[926acec8]

A few days ago, I submited my application to one job for developing blockchain site and talked to client. He wanted to build casino site and he sent me his project link. He required to run his project on my local and send screenshot. I did that, but that was scamming project. There was a hidden code to steal secret key of wallet. I noticed this morning I lost my crypto. How can I find this scammer? He posted that job again today to steal $ from other people.
Please help me and be careful that scammer!

You cannot find it. Upwork covering all scammer's info.

You can flag jobs as ToS violation. It will be deleted within week-two, or won't.

In short: forget. Be careful in future.

That is Job link of scammer. So, there is no way to find that scammer?

Upwork can check that scammer's information and find him?

Then, just block that scammer. He is trying to steal $ from  other people. He posted the sam job again.

Hi Vijay,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I checked and it looks like the freelancer has not accepted your offer yet, meaning no contract was established.

We always advise freelancers to not work on a contract unless a contract is started, same with clients, to protect your information/assets. 

Since no money was released to the freelancer via Upwork, we would not be able to retrieve anything either.

What we can do right now is report the freelancer and take action based on our internal processes. One of our support agents will reach out to you via a support ticket, you can provide more information to them on the same ticket.
