Well, freelancer are quite obviously scammers, but I am not sure about this scenario here, where I am not sure the term scam would apply at this point, even though it seems very shady. However. When they bought vworker.com my account migrated to freelancer where I obviously did the procedure of connecting my PayPal to get it certified for future possible payments. I got an e-mail about getting their Basic Membership for free for the next month due to the vworker->freelancer thing and whatever. One month later I get an e-mail telling me that the Basic Membership ended and in order to renew it I will have to pay the fee, obviously I didn't, not having used the side as I didn't really like it too much. 6 hours later I get another e-mail saying that they just booked the amount from my PayPal, which I gave them the right to when connecting my PayPal to my freelancer account. The support didn't want to give me my money back until I made it clear that they're not acting on legal grounds as they never stated anywhere that the 1 month free Basic Membership will renew automatically afterwards and that I would have to change it in order to have the free membership (at least I know it's not legal in my country, but after 1 week of waiting they finally replied that they're going to give me my money back). I wonder how much money they've made by scamming hundreds and possibly thousands former vworker users who then didn't claim their money back.
