One indian freelancer no wan pay me o. After writing 15 articles for him. I think he is using me to do a job he got from some other freelancer. Very rude guy. One complain after another. I will sha keep fixing whatever he complains until i get my 10 dollars or i vex for am. Seriously, i dey learn a lot of longsuffering from this thing o. I must put am for CV. This one ni go fit carry my money go cos i get milestone and gave submitted his articles.

My dear, it's like that sometimes. Been through hell and back in this business but i thank God today.

You just have to persevere. This week now my ratings on Fiverr dropped to 92% from 100% because of too many cancelled orders. I don't have more than two hands and one brain. This people would see bulk of orders in queue and they'll still go ahead to place their order and start insulting you. Eventually, they cancel and your ratings drop. Sometimes, i wonder if some of them are not just possessed by demons because of the way they behave.

But what can we say? It's our source of livelihood. We just gotta persevere.

@cremeandchic, I have successfully created my fiverr account, but now to create gig is now a problem, I followed ur guide on how to create a good gig but if try creating one it won't successfully create, I wonder what might be the cos of it...? Please help

The gig is not creating? Hmmn. Did you add photos to your gig and did you resize the photos before uploading them? Are the Gig photos copyright free? Did you use a particular keyword too may times? Did you fill all the spaces provided, perhaps you left an important field unfilled?

These are a few things that might make it impossible for you to create your gig. The pictures and keywords part most especially.

Try to look at the top of your screen after hitting the submit button. It would display information on why the Gig cannot be created successfully.

If you are still having problems after this, let me know.

@cremeandch,could u pls reach/sms me on 07056693416.thanks

Sent you a PM

It is the same thing that has been happening to me. I have been unable to bid for any job because anytime I try to bid it tells me to complete my profile and I have done that severally and my profile is at 56% completion. I was advised by Ladywriter to contact the help desk but I can't find the help desk on the web page.....so frustrating. I have registered with fiverr which is a lot more easier to work with and i have set up two gigs but I have been unable to get any order. I think it has to do with the Nigerian factor. Anyway I have resolved not to be discouraged.

You need reviews on your Fiverr gig to get clients. Ou also need to optimize ur gig to make it more visible to clients.

What are you selling?

Post a lnk to your gig, i'll buy 2 gigs and give you two reviews.

eripecs:
Creamy. You're more than this. No fight I beg you. #teamonefamily#

Ok ma

tranxo:
Stop smarting, and you MAY see clearer.

Oh well... whatever that means.

tranxo:



Are you for real?! I really had the urge not to respond but I had to kill it because your comment didn't actually dwell on the quality of that spam - yes IT IS SPAM, but rather on other personal issues on your mind. Thread landlord? That's cheap, and a matter for another day.

So, did you check the profile of your philanthropist? Did you check his or her posts? Did you even bother clicking that smart link (which is no where near anything smart) before concluding that he wants to "help?" Common sense tells us that he is leading us to a list building site, and we know lists are basically for one purpose - sales. Have we forgotten the origin of this particular thread, the intentions of ladywriter, and the need to keep it that way?

Opening a thread is as free as air and I see no reason why we should allow spammers and derailers on this thread when they can conveniently open as many threads as they want to their heart's content. People who want to peddle any ware in any guise should do so outside this thread unless the owner of the thread thinks otherwise.

Yes, I am not Seun, and I don't own Nairaland, but I am a landlord of some sort on this thread, and I can't stand by and watch it spammed to death. We have all benefited FOR FREE from this thread and should naturally give back as much as we can. People should be able to find information the thread was created for, easily, without having to go through a heap of rubbish.

Last bullet: I expected better from you. Just saying. Nothing personal.

Readers of this thread are adults who know their left from their right.

It's a list building link so what? Who doesn't build lists? All successful netreprenuers build lists and except he has asked for payment(which you can decide not to pay for if you choose), then you have no right to make it seem like he's doing anything wrong.


Why didn't you attack others before him? Or the guy who was advertising book covers yesterday?

Stop trying to limit people from accessing information that would help them.

I have helped people on this thread FOR FREE in the past and i have taken Payments from some. It all depends on the time and level of comittment, same with the originator of this thread.

What else?

Last bullet-: Black men should try to emulate the whites, they uplift one another not try to bring one another down because they feel threatened.

Nmeri17:
I actually placed a bid on this project but the guy doesn't know what he is doing. he sent me a number of messages saying he is new and doesn't know if he can trust strangers with his money

You probably didn't show him your Nigerian flag. Call his attention to it.

tranxo:
Check the next door.

You guys should take it easy on this thread really and remember that Nairaland is not anyones property(except Seun). It's a general forum.

The guy is advertising his website where people can find information about blogging, information marketing and stuff and you are shooing him away. Is it a lie that people can make money from these things?

Make una take am easy abeg. Live and let live, there are no thread landlords here. it's the people who contribute to a thread that make the thread.

The only people you should be shooing away are thread spammers and derailers not people who are also trying to do what you created this thread for -Pass information accross.

No b small tin. How come I missed this part??Anyway e b like say it's a settled issue (thanks to madam Ladywriter) but for person to waka come dey call my madam fraud the person eye blind . Abeg Õoooº°˚ ˚°º I have dealt with her outside this forum and she paid me accordingly and in time so how come she go collect ur money run. Anyways if you no get leg come borrow my own too. #yeyedeysmell

I would have even prefered you not to comment so it won't look like you are supporting me but thank God for people like you who have done substantial business with me, and sent goods to me without even knowing me or where i live and i didn't run away.

Not to talk of this broke arse claiming i scammed him of 7k after training him for 4 weeks. Like seriously?

ladywriter:
Saw this project post on freelancer and i am happy. This shows me that you guys are doing well on freelancer.com. Let's be honest, committed, hardworking and show the world that we are the BEST. Let's keep the flag of our nation - Nigeria flying.

And the flag of Ghana too.

Yes ma! I still dey visit Õoooº°˚ ˚°º. Will do that now.

Thanks Fav.

Tooltip please send me ur bb pin too. Did a security wipe and lost all my contacts on BBM. Thanks.

africanman85:
Hahaha Olajumoke, if na the time wey i dey skul wen i still they vex, this kind thing na piece of cake. Wat i wuld have done is to make you an offer u cant refuse. You are nt invisible u knw. But i forgive everybody let this be one of the sacrifices i made this 2015.

You are the invisible one Sir, i have never tried to be invisible. Google is your friend.

If you are still interested in your training, my doors are open, if not, not my fault.

Goodday to you too.

ladywriter:


I think I need to set the records straight here. To the glory of God, I trained Jumoke and a couple of others on how to make money on freelancer without collecting a dime and she told me she made money. The training she is referring to here is another level which is - E-book writing and she did not finish the training.

@africanman85 and @cremeandchic, I have tried to resolve the differences between the two of you, but there is no head way. Please try and resolve it the way you deem fit, but please stop bashing each other here. You are derailing the thread.

Did i imply anything different?

See, please at this point i think i'm done here. Everyone is free to think, feel or see whatever they like. I didn't start the derailment and i never saw this until i received a mail from you calling my attention to what was said about me.

I have about 50 screenshots detailing my conversation with this guy and snapping them took a hell of time. I wonder how long posting it would take and to what end really? To convince people i didn't scam Isreal Okoro of N7,000?

Well, i didn't scam him or anyone else. If he has any problems with me, he knows how to find me. I didn't come knocking at his doorstep to train him. He came to me and i did the best i could so far. If he's not satisfied, he knows where to find me.

Favourume,i don't know if you still visit this thread but incase you see this please send me your BB pin via cremeandchic@gmail.com

africanman85:
The truth is that this lady is a scam. She dosnt have anything to offer. Look at wat she wrote, that ladywriter thought her and she didnt make a dime but still refer pple. How will you be at loss and still refer pple to a program ? Were did you learn the one you want to teach me ? Just that i was blind to fall your victim.

So? is that all the screenshots you have to display? I thought your accusation was that after you paid i absconded with your money and you sent me mails which i didn't respond to for more than three weeks(LIAR!).

Now, you are saying its cos i stated in number 4 that i would create accounts for you which i did not.

Isreal did i or did i not give you a step by step process, sent you several mails about how to get pictures, tags, names and free proxy add-ons to use for your Fiverr account?

After creating the account did i not check it and tell you what and what to change?

So what exactly are you accusing me of?

How did i scam you?

Anyway, anyone who has an open mind should have seen by now that you are only trying to malign my reputation;a feat too big for you and your cohorts.

Keep rambling, i have nothing to say to you again.

Post ALL the screenshots without leaving out any or forever remain silent.

ladywriter:
@cremeandchic and @Africanman85, Please you guys should try and settle your differences amicably and let's focus on Making money as freelancers here without turning this thread into a dispute resolution centre.

Ladywriter, i don't have any dispute with this guy. Even after calling me names, i didn't say i wasn't going to continue to train him. He's a trouble maker seeking for attention and i have never seen such a bold liar.

Now, he's saying he wants to post THE LESSONS WE TOOK after saying HE PAID ME AND I ABSCONDED AND REFUSED TO REPLY HIS MAILS.

This guy never sent me any mails that i never replied.

Normally, i would have said oya come and take your 7k and let me rest but i won't. You either come back to complete your training( and don't even attempt the slightest insult or you'll be back with more tales) or you buzz off. You are not the first or last person i would train and even with all i think i know, i still pay for more knowledge.

If you want to make false allegations against Eleboda Olajumoke, let it be substantial sums not 7K. Haba?

africanman85:
This lady Olajumoke aka Cremeandchic is a blatant liar, she is a fraudster. Thank God she accepted that i paid her. I wil upload screen shots of her advertisement and let her post screen shots of the lesson we took.

Am a blatant liar and a fraudster? Okay please upload the screenshots of ALL our conversations and answer these questions along.

When you paid me did i abscond with your money without teaching you anything like you implied here?

Have you ever sent me any mail at all that i didn't respond to?

Did i try to train you on how to write to which you complained that you wanted to start earning money instead?

Did you recieve training from me for four weeks or that was your ghost i was training after absconding with your money?

Did you refuse to do assignments sent to you and also refuse to attend to subsequent corrections?

Did you not call me a robber because i told you i couldn't open a Fiverr account for you? Usually, i would open the account for my trainees and ask them to change the password later but i had already studied you and knew i would be shooting myself in the foot if i ever did that with someone like you.

When you are ready to continue your training, you know where to find me. All this your nairaland posting won't change nothing.

If you like say i put a gun to your head to rob you, it won't change the truth. And my name is not something you can destroy, you will only destroy yourself in the process.

cremeandchic:



You paid me 7 000 for a training and i disappeared into thin air? Is that even possible knowing that a whole lot of people within and outside Nairaland know me down to where i live?

I wouldn't have responded if not that i respect the people on this thread and Ladywriter who sent me a mail with a screenshot of your allegation. You and i know what happened between us and trying to destroy my reputation here wouldn't help you cos i'm the least person that cares.

i'm extremely busy now but i would take screenshots of all our conversations so far and post it then people are free to make their opinions.

I even like ur choice of words 'u paid me and i disappeared into thin air and you've sent me mails since then which i refused to respond to'

I guess people would be able to clearly see you for the liar and troublemaker you are.

I'm busy now joor.

Ladywriter and all those who asked me to respond.

Well, i have spent almost two hours taking screenshots of all my conversations with this guy and I'm still not done. I have clients waiting for their jobs so i don't think I'll be able to do this now.Today na Monday abeg.

I'll find time between today and Wednesday to respond properly but the long and short is that I DID NOT SCAM ISREAL OKORO. He's just a rude troublemaker who called me a robber because i told him to create his Fiverr account himself.

I gave him a step by step procedure but he insisted i do it for him. I told him i couldn't and i gave him details and even checked and critiqued his account, told him to put somethings in order. Sent him a book of 100 gigs to choose from yet he still went to choose the ones he couldn't handle even after i told him to write an analysis of how he would execute the gigs he chose. Everything was in the book i sent him for heaven's sake!

He chose review writing and a client bought his gig and asked him to review his Amazon product. Amazon apparently told him that he had to be a verified purchaser before he could review. He contacted me and i told him to find something of $1 to buy and ship to someone in the US so that he can be allowed to review. He replied me that Amazon said it will take 48 hours and i replied back that there's nothing i could do. There were 100 gigs you could choose from yet you went to choose one you didn't understand because you feel it's easy work.

This guy replied that i'm a robber that i robbed him of his money, bla, bla.

Mind you, he refused to complete his writing training and kept on complaining that i was making money through other means and i didn't want to teach him. That he knows i don't make money from writing alone.

By this time, i was already tired of him and all his pettiness so i gave him my assistant's email address that he should contact her and she would continue his training. The email i gave him was my official email and if he had contacted that person, he would have still been communicating with me but he refused to. And next thing he comes here to say crap.

Isreal is the kind of guy who feels cos he paid you for training then you ought do the work for him while he sits back and enjoy the money. I paid Ladywriter 9K last year for a training and i didn't complete it or earn $1 from it but did i come here to insult her? It's me who was unserious. I have also referred people to her before and i have trained under other people as well. None of them created accounts for me on any platform. What happens when one day all your money disappears? That hasn't even happened and you are already calling me a robber.

Isreal, since you have time on your hands, you can post the screenshots and please, don't leave any out. I trained you for more than 4 weeks and you said i took your money and disappeared. o funny gan.

All this campaign against Cremeandchic would not work cos i have the thickest skin in the world. U hear?

africanman85:
Is quiet unfortunate that this thread which is suppose to be an avenue for knowledge has turned out to be a means to defraud people. A lady i met through this avenue. I paid a lady here by name: Eleboda Olajumoke aka Creamandchic to couch me on article writing and other skills needed on freelancer since then, she disappeared into the thin air. I have sent countless emails but no reply. Is getting to 3 weeks now and am really really sad. Please beware of who you pay as regards to training.

You paid me 7 000 for a training and i disappeared into thin air? Is that even possible knowing that a whole lot of people within and outside Nairaland know me down to where i live?

I wouldn't have responded if not that i respect the people on this thread and Ladywriter who sent me a mail with a screenshot of your allegation. You and i know what happened between us and trying to destroy my reputation here wouldn't help you cos i'm the least person that cares.

I guess people would be able to clearly see you for the liar and troublemaker you are.

I'm busy now joor.

ladywriter:


Oh Jumoke sweetie, darling, lovee, honey, ... Oh, where is tooltip when you need him. I am so SORRY. No one is painting you in bad light. I love you and I love what you are doing. It is good to help others. We are humans and we will always need ourselves. I truly admire your courage, hardwork and commitment. LOVE YOU FROM THE DEPTH OF MY HEART. MUA!

Love you more Ma.

But i don't want to be known as Jumoke the girl who teaches people how to make money online fraudulently.

eripecs:

Thanks for sharing, dear. Will see if I can manage fiverr with freelancer because this freelancer no let me see road again. You need to explain the use of Nigerian IP though cos fiverr clients are very selective and discriminative.

I'm considering all this talks about intergrity and all of that as a direct attack on my personality.

If you check my blog, you would see that tbere was nowhere in that post i mentioned proxy accounts or changing IP addresses. I only mentioned that in response to what Eripecs posted about her being frustrated on Fiverr because of her Nigerian IP and i thought it could help other people avoid this problem.

I invested in books and videos before i was able to earn a cent on Fiverr and i don't blame all these marketers who charge people an arm and a leg and get rich off training people how to make money online.

its probably because of attacks like this when you try to put free information online.

I am not the immoral or unchristain person you are trying to paint there and i started from rock bottom to get to where i am today. ONLY THE HANDS OF GOD could have helped me do that so i believe i am certainly doing something right.

I'm sorry, but i'm not going to talk about Fiverr anymore on this thread.

Thanks for your understanding.

ladywriter:


Yeah Jumoke, I understood your points very well. Let me do a little bit of preaching here (after all I am a Pastor's wife). I built my account on Freelancer.com from "0" reviews up to what it is now by the grace and mercies of God. I believe God will make way for me, no matter how difficult it is, if I remain steadfast, hardworking and honest. God has not failed me yet!. What will it profit a man to gain the WHOLE WORLD and LOOSE HIS SOUL. If you trust God for work and you remain honest and hardworking, He will make a way where there is no way. I repeat - God has not failed me yet!. Let's join hands together to build a new generation of honest and hardworking online marketers/writers that the whole world will respect!

Maybe its just me but i am yet to see anything 'sinful' or morally wrong with creating a proxy account.

Writers have pen names all the time even the very successful ones.

J.K Rowling is one of the most successful authors in the world. Well, J.K Rowlings doesn't exist; its a pen name.

Not everyone is comfortable putting their real names and identity out there.

I remember i was chatting with a freelance writer who is also on this thread and i was telling him about building a reputation for himself online but you know what he told me, he said he didn't want to be known as a freelance writer and thats not what he wants to be known for and was just using it to gather funds to build his real dream.

So everyone has reasons for what they do and life is not just white and black, there are different shades too.

In business, we have what we call tactics and it would be sanctimonius to assume another person's tactics is sinful or morally wrong because its not what we would use.

All those profile pics you see on Fiverr, how many of them use their real pics? Isn't that sinful or decietful too? At the end of the day, nobody is completely pure. As long as i don't dupe or scam anybody, i'm totally cool with it.

I was asked to share my method of making $100 per day on Fiverr and that's it.

People, you don't have to go with my methods, do what works for you and what you feel is right.

I'm out.

ladywriter:


eeeh! Madam 'black hat'. I need to come in here. Please we have to be ethical in our businesses online and offline. Learn not to cover-up your identity online. I have been faced with the temptations to do so many times - use false IP, Paypal back corner etc. But i made a choice. I will work as a Nigerian and do my best, my work will speak for me. Is it easy? No. Did I make money? Yes. Do people love my work? Yes. The road may be difficult and bumpy, but learn to have standards and Integrity. Integrity will take you far in business, because God will back you up. Falsehood can lead you into problems, even though you will make money.

Just like Jumoke said, use payoneer, design great covers and videos for your gigs. If I have enough time, i will give you more tips. But Jumoke is better in this and I think she deserves a standing ovation. . Less I forget, I am searching for a plagiarism free husband for her. So to apply, contact me asap.

Toor, na why i no mention am o. Lol.

But someone asked so i had to. And really, these white guys can be do discriminating and stereotypical sometimes. The truth is we Nigerians have a very terrible reputation online, that some people literally pick up their shoes and run once they see the Nigerian flag. EXCEPT you have been able to proof yourself online.

Someone like you, Ladywriter, you have dozens of positive reviews on Freelancer and these are from different guys all over the world. It wouldn't be difficult for people to have confidence in you and assign jobs to you.

A newbie coming on Freelancer for the first time would have problem getting the jobs you could get easily.

Do you know that till now, my freelancer account that has my name on it, is a mess; no one hires me with that account until i created a US account with another name.

So really, it is what it is.

Some clients don't care where you are from but some would scrutinize you deeply for whatever reason and really, its a competitive market and Native speakers are always assumed to be writing Czars when some of them can't even write to save their lives.

But i see your point though but it doesnt always work that way for everyone.

Freelance writing is now my sole source of income and i don't i have the patience to wait for people to 'pity' me and give me jobs because i'm not a native writer.

So my advice is, if you are going on fiverr to create freelance writing gigs, create two accounts, one with your Nigerian name and the other with your American name and IP. Then use your American account to build your Nigerian account then you can now abandon it.

But for other type of gigs dat dont involve writing, this may not be neccessary.

jonaboy:
@Creamandchic can you please recommend someone to us here that can open and verify a US paypal account for us, thank you.

Please send me a mail.

eripecs:

Thanks for sharing, dear. Will see if I can manage fiverr with freelancer because this freelancer no let me see road again. You need to explain the use of Nigerian IP though cos fiverr clients are very selective and discriminative.

Yes, there are some 'black hat' practices to get more clients on Fiverr but i ca't possibly put that on my blog for obvious reasons but now that you've mentioned it......

When creating your Fiverr account, use a USA ip address. I use a paid, dedicated Ip address which costs me around $7 per month.

But if you cannot afford a it, search for a free VPN online, download it and use it to change your
to US when you want to create your account and EVERY TIME you need to login to Fiverr.

Nmeri17:
around how much isn't there an alternative to that

Depends on what you want to use it for. Payoneer is a great alternative.

scheat39:


please how do i get US verify account?

You pay someone to create and verify it for you.
