Cant I give 0 stars?

Whenever I try to do some work on Freelancer, something nasty happens.
I had a person who wanted some work done.
I did the work for him, he paid me the money.

Now after around 30 days Freelancer realises that the money was from a account which was fake so they just reverse the money back to the employers account.

Why should the employer get back the money? I worked for him, he paid me now its me who should get the money, but no, the money goes back to him.

Freelancer's useless STAFF says that the account is closed and that I should contact the employer directly to receive money from him. Why will the employer pay me if he is getting the work done for FREE?

They say their STUPID POLICY states that if the account cannot be verified then the money goes back to the employers card. IS FREELANCER for us or for EMPLOYERS?
Why dont you create a website EMPLOYERS.com instead?

They say Freelancer money system is the best and most trusted, my foot i think its the worst system. Even paypal listens to disputes more clearly and gives a decision which is technically right.

What does FREELANCER do?
What will they Do? Do they have BRAINS? NOPE.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:

NOW AFTER SUBMITTING A BANK STATEMENT THEY SAY THAT IT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED, AS IT DOESNT MEET THEIR STANDARDS.

I certainly think that BANKS should CALL Freelancer and see what their standards are and then start issuing Bank Statements to their consumers, so there wont be a problem.
