I saw the following job on freelancer.com:

https://www.freelancer.com/projects/proofreading/Proofreading-document-33344522/... />
I received the message asking me to contact @Rita_Publishing (Rita Lawrence) on telegram, so I did. Upon introduction, they asked me the country of my origin and name. Then, they asked me to do the test in less than 30 mins., It was a translation test (English to Spanish). Upon clearing the test, they asked me to complete a project worth $1000. However., they stated that the payments shall be made directly which seemed pretty weird. Anyhow., I accepted the project and started working on it. 5 hours into it and I thought of checking the reviews of the company. From there, I got to know that I was being scammed since The crystal Publishing House LLC stated that a fake company was using their name and sending out contracts on Telegram. Upon direct confrontation (Pics attached) they got angry and used impolite words, which is very unprofessional behavior.

I saw the following job listing on freelancer.com

Don't give them money, if they charge you for any reason, ask them to deduct the payment from to Project payment.
I received a message asking me to contact a @Terry_Hoffman on Telegram. So I did, and they asked me where I'm from, then they proceeded to send a description of the company with a website, then they asked me to send my CV which I did. They said that they have 125 JPEGs to be copy typed into Ms Word. Offering 4,375$ in the contract they sent me. As a person with unofficial experience in copy typing I was surprised to find out they were interested in me. Of course after doing all the work then I realize how Sketchy the company is. A simple search for the name of the company brings confusion with different company names and information relating to fraud. They told me that I needed to pay a Levy, of 350$, for the transfer of 4,375$. Also, the person I was in contact with said I would be charged for the extra time I needed to complete the assignment. I told them to deduct the Levy from the Project payment amount; I haven't heard back.

we have the same issue, and they want me to pay $350. .I found them on Upwork. We had a transaction via telegram, and turn 125 images to word (which is a typing job) as soon I completed the project, now I am having issue with the payment. Where can we report this? They even sent me a receipt of bank of america.

I received a message asking me to contact a @CatalinaHarrison on Telegram. So I did, and they asked me where I'm from, then they proceeded to send a description of the company with a website, then they asked me to send my CV which I did. They said that they have 125 images in English and then asked me what other language I can speak and I answered Spanish (my native language). They asked me to submit the images translated into Spanish in 2 days and offered $4,375 and they sent me contract. I responded that I can't do it unless I have 6-7 days. They were very insistent in me signing the contract which I did when they finally agreed to the timeframe that I could offer. Then they asked me to setup an account on the following website: https://mycoinscape.com/account/login.php?success which only asked for my name and email. I tried to go back to the website and see if I can cancel it but it's not and option.I haven't done anything else. I found this later: https://www.facebook.com/crystalpublishingllc/ and https://crystalpublishingllc.biz/2022/02/23/be-warned/#comments. I proceed to email them saying that I can't do the job at this time and to please accept that email as a cancellation from my part of the contract. I sent the message to the @CatalinaHarrison I spoke to via Telegram to which she only answered "Al tight". I'm concerned about what they can do with the information I gave (full name, date of birth, country of origin, email and address, altough the address I gave doesn't specify the city and I sent an incomplete one). Is there something I can or should do? I'm happy to provide screenshots and the unsigned contract if you'd like the full information of what they say and send. My country is not on the list below so I'm going to put something else instead because I feel like people should know about this.
