For clients, if a freelancer sounds too good to be true, they can potentially be lying or are really good at work. If a freelancer is delivering work too quickly, either they have a team that’s helping them out, or they are obtaining the deliverable from a source online. Sometimes, freelancers use automation tools or AI bots to generate work artificially rather than working on a project all by themselves. Clients can avoid getting scammed by verifying the deliverables’ authenticity through various tools. For freelancers, clients can scam a freelancer by never paying for work and making excuses like lacking quality, missed deadlines, or demanding unnecessary revisions that could frustrate the freelancer and quit. Moreover, some clients trick freelancers into working outside the platform and scamming them by disappearing after getting the work done. Avoid getting scammed by restricting the project to the platform.
