I Helped A Nairalander To Create An Account And He Reported Me To Upwork by Fidelmalek(m): 6:18am On Mar 13, 2018
Hello everyone.
This is how wicked Nigerians can be.

How wicked can some people be?
I got a mail from someone requesting for me to put him through as regards getting an approved account, and I obliged... (that he's from nairaland blah blah blah
I screenshoted my profile for him and to show him how he should go about it, and I received a mail this morning that my profile is fake and that I should do an id verification on upwork.
The modafuck'a set me up, and because he reported me, my $1581 has been placed on hold and I can't transfer my funds.
How's it a bad thing to help Nigerians?
Hey modafuck'a it you're reading this, trust me, you'll never succeed on upwork coz you a coward and a big one at that.
Never help anyone here again! As some people are from the sea.


God!!!

Never reveal your upwork or fiverr profile to anyone. Especially people on nairaland.

all my clients leave 5star reviews and how's that even possible?
I maintain 100% client freelancer relationship.
Simply out of the equation

yeah. Lesson learnt the hard way.
People looking for an approved profile should look elsewhere as I'm done helping evil minded people.
God help me

Your blocked account doesn't come from nairalander but upwork system. I noticed that upwork has the way they are detecting fake US ip after connecting with vpn. I am saying this because the same thing happened to me as well and i didn't reveal any of my account details to anybody.

See how you jumped into conclusions. The minute you are not using your real name or location, you stand a risk of being exposed at any time. And how can a new account report you and run you down? Especially if you have all the reviews you say you have. Re-strategize and try again.

Wow. How's that even possible.... I use a paid vpn and it never happened until the guy contacted me to help me open an account for him...
It says I was reported.
How can you explain that

I know you are panicking. Think it through. What account would he have used to report you? Remember he didn't know anything about upwork. How could he have opened an account yesterday night, verified it and reported you and upwork then suspended you all in that one night! It's just unfortunate it happened coincidentally like that.

For Upwork to suspend you that night means that they got the report earlier, reviewed it and suspended you. They just don't wake up and suspend. They must have taken some time to review it

That's very unfortunate and naive of you. You should know the number rule... Don't divulge your freelance profile to NL folks or social media folks if he/she is not a trusted family/friend. I believe you are still new in the freelancing world and the bad belle acts perpetrated by Nigerians on each other.

Was it not how a dumb mofo here sent me a private message to help him with tips and he ended coming here to insult me?

Dumb mofo is what he is.

No... It's not gone... Verify your identity... They will deport your flag and you will collect your money. But you can just be affected in getting upcoming jobs if preference is for American or European flags

You have no idea Lunagirl... Maybe you are still young in the freelancing world... His is not the first and won't be the last. Such has been happening since I can remember.... people running each other down... Not just freelancers, even bloggers. Reason some won't divulge their money-making blogs on NL. A lot has happened in the past, sis.

Perhaps you do not know anyone can pretend to be naive just to get what they want and achieve their aim. Perhaps you should ask of one guy like that, I can't remember his name (I think isaacforart or so) whose expertise was looking for Africans camouflaging as whites on fiverr. He ensured many were deported and by the time those guys fought back, they literally destroyed his Google business profile after researching him.

Thank God you commented... I believe you've had one experience or two with bad belle as regards online business. I can remember your moniker in those days.... I think it has to do with blogging also, I think? I might be wrong.
