They protect scamming freelancers I would never use again after my experience. A 'Top rated' freelancer charged me for $1100 for SEO work which he didn't carry out and after raising a dispute Upwork sided with him because he'd been logging hours in his work diary. They didn't even bother to check for proof that he hadn't carried out the work (which I had lots) or checking our work conservation history which they could have easily seen he was seriously shady including deleting many parts of our conversation to cover his tracks. Apparently, some freelancers have found a way to fake good feedback and jobs and nothing has been done about it. If they don't act now they will quickly lose the reputation they have built up so far.

Upwork makes life easier for the freelancer and the client by holding funds in escrow. It's free to sign up and you only pay a fraction of your earnings at the end of your job cycle. However, I must admit that it's highly competitive. You really have to stuggle for a while as a new freelancer. There are many talents on Upwork struggling to get the attention of good-paying clients. You just have to stand out from the competition.

Total Fraud
November 11, 2020

You get exposed to a lot of harmful behaviour from clients when working through Upwork.
All I get from the site is clients asking for free work. What is utterly disgraceful is they you refuse to take down the job so I can get my connects back when I report it. Basically, on Upwork, I pay to get insulted with requests for free work, and get absolutely no remedy of any sort.

I lost work, time and money.

Upwork, stop turning a blind eye to the free work problem on your site.
The mere fact of asking me to work for free is extremely harmful, abusive behaviour.
I expect more than just being told "Action was taken" when you actually did nothing and I won't get my connects back so I can apply to real opportunities out there. It sucks when you allow pecuniary gain take utmost precedence when reviewing and taking action on clients exhibiting harmful behaviour.
