He sent me the a some assets to work on it for 3 days. Then I submit the final work for that part, they asked my account info, to send me the money, after I provide it to that email (Halifax public library <halifaxpubliclibrary1996@mail.ee>), I got a confirmation and asked for a fee of 55 Euro to pay which I paid:

Very sorry about this, we all need to be aware that there are scammers on upwork, please try not to take your work off upwork as this is dangerous and can also get you suspended here. Try not to take jobs with unverified payment methods. Unfortunately you might not be able to retrieve your money. Hope this helps.

Verification cost an $2 and few clicks. It mean nothing. Only very lazy scammer still unverified.

You broke rules and was scammed. Take time to read ToS or you will be scammed again or banned.

What you mean by `Verification cost an $2`! I can not verify my self but I do spend a lot on connects and Ads but I cant verify my self. I think Upwork will send a link as they mention!

For clients.

FLs verification is different.
