Hello

I received the email address to be [email protected]. She told me about the project around 10000 words need to finish one day, I doubted this PM, the Deadline too urgently.

Hello

I received the email address to be [email protected]. She told me about the project around 10000 words need to finish one day, I doubted this PM, the Deadline too urgently. Besides, when I said, "I feel you don't trust to collaborate please give me more information about your company". She didn't prove her not a scammer. Based on my experience and search for information on the internet I guess this can a scammer, I hope everyone read my post will be avoided trouble from this email.

Sincerely,

Hello

I received the email address to be [email protected]. She told me about the project around 10000 words need to finish one day, It will be divided 2 part to translate. She didn't send me her PO and Link website to be fake. I am writing this message to be a warning this scammer.


Hullo Nara,

The web address looks odd, the job request looks unbusinesslike. You rightly checked the website, it seems. You would naturally expect a PO, and the usual professionally identifying details.

I hope you weren't deceived by this scammer. It was thoughtful of you to issue this warning.

With kind regards,

Adam Warren
