Fraud is likely a huge issue on Upwork
- Set up fake profile
- Set up a bot army to vote you up
- Take clients money, never deliver or deliver some random crap duct taped together with ChatGPT README
- tgsovlerkhgsel 4y ago> - Take clients money This part is usually solved with escrow systems so the scammer wouldn't get anything until the client confirms they're happy, so why isn't that what Upwork is doing?
- goodpoint 4y agoIf clients keep paying it means they are happy with the work delivered. But if upwork really wants to implement coding tests they have to do it BEFORE assigning customers to the developer. Especially before $10K have been spent.
- ejanus 4y agoDo they do coding test? I have not heard that before.
- joenot443 4y agoThere are blackhat hacking forums with a better reputation and fraud protection system than Upwork. If all it takes is a “bot army” to make a profile seem legit, they’ve created this problem for themselves.
