After it took “Her” or “Him” probably “Him” over a day to write a script “I love you” I will be like:

What would that sentence have meant, had it survived?

I wish I could put a photo into this message - (does anyone know a way to import a screenshot into the forum?) - what must be the SAME user sent me a email today. While it is the funniest thing I have ever read, it is clearly the same person (they both had accounts recently created, using first and last names with numbers as their handles, and both had LinkedIn-looking, professional stock photos as their icons).

It reads: **********

it seems you have a reputation on fiverr. that is to say that you put all your fancy degrees and education on these but you do not actually do any quality work. i just wanted you to know that the word got around about that. also you put makeup on and pretend as though you are a “white” woman but you are really not "white. you seem to be busy getting lattes from the local cafe and keeping yourself a busybody running errands all day but you do not do any quality work. i just want you to know people know about that. and your reputation is like that on fiverr. thanks

LOLLLL.

That is just weird. I hope Fiverr take this seriously.

I have simply said a few times, “thank you for reaching out but I am passing on this project” I think audition requests on Fiverr are sometimes scams or at the least not professional. If I agree I never audition the entire request. Just use your oh oh feelings on these! Thank you so much for sharing.

so this lady asked for my help and also asked for me to send 2 test samples acting out two scenes and also sent a sample picture. It was a side on view from the waste up past the head with a guy banging on a door with the side of his fist repeatedly. I was asked to bang on a door or wall repeatedly with the side of my fist not the knuckles saying “come out” with short sleeves and angry but not shouting.

Looking at the practice photo I knew something was strange so I asked for the second scene and she said she hadn’t written it yet.

I turned down the offer and now the account and messages have disappeared.

You need to remove the username of your buyer as that is not allowed on the forum.
