Worse Messages Ever Recieved

[nikavoice]

My 2 that I despise are the “can you do this as a gift”? and the “give me lots of work for free and I will give you mass orders in future”!

This combined both. This is after he asked for 5000 words for $5. I told him no thanks, but he persisted. So I sent him a customer offer of $50.

LOLz at my budget is $5. 😃 Bargain basement budget. Tsk, tsk, tsk!

“sorry i don’t need your service”

Ouch! I bet you were crushed? Not! 😄

I’ve had some VERY, very interesting messages. 😬

Here’s one that took me by surprise. 😯

Yeah, right. Why would I hit up a complete stranger? For him to kidnap my 🍑.

Um, no, thank you!

Never had anything too out of the ordinary but I once had a couple different buyers hit on me.

Like, dude. It’s Fiverr. Not Plenty Of Fish.

More like Plenty of creepers. 😂

Yup! Many of the guys on here think it’s a dating site.

Sending “Hi” or “Hello” with nothing of substance.

Asking where are you from? and other nonsense that has nothing to do with the services offered.

Apart from all the messages that are just - hi! or calling me dear or asking me if I can outsource work - this one was particularly offensive - I’m sure you can work out the word used. I notice they still have an account so…

I’ve seen people suspended/banned for less… WAY less. It’s a shame.

And some of these made me laugh out loud… probably to keep from crying 😁

I get messages like this from time to time:

“Hi JonBaas! You gigs are awesome! I like everything about you, and I think you are Fiverr’s best seller of gigs. I want to do what you do, so I think we should be partners. We share all profits, and we be a great team! So, what you say? Respond me back. I am waiting for your valuable reply.”

:roll_eyes:

I didnt think you would tell anyone!

I despise:

• being asked for samples
• revisions without specific issues (It doesnt sound right, can you make it better etc)
• can you do x, y or z when my specific service is exactly that. (not can you do this within a certain time or whatever; just Can you proofread this? and similar
• any unrealistic expectations such as Can you rank me on page 1 of Google. I will pay an extra $5 if you can do it by tomorrow Actual request I received from a lawyer in New York, where CPC is around $50 and is some of the most competitive online real estate in the world.

Can you rank me on page 1 of Google. I will pay an extra $5 if you can do it by tomorrow

🙈

One of my weird message was someone send me a porn video and wanted me to make it a better quality. 🙈

Tough job but somebody has to do it I guess.

Were there any guidelines as to what would make it better quality?

Edit: Dont answer that

“Hi”: usually a sign of trouble.

“Are you female?”: Uh oh…

And then there was one wonderful client who told me, after six minutes of me not responding to his previous message, that he would “not be waiting for my response any longer”. Yes, because everyone on Fiverr is constantly checking the app and/or has their laptop open every single moment of the day.

“Hi”: usually a sign of trouble.

“Hy” = double trouble.

Sounds like a lucrative deal. 💰

An opportunity of a lifetime? 😲

“Can I have your whatsapp Number”

[mymaha786]

I had to google this before I knew I had just been abused 😂

[awikhan]

Use your skills to earn 😄

[jonbaas]

Use your skills to earn 😄

Use your skills to earn 😄

How is that a terrible message?

Using your skills to earn income is what Fiverr is all about.

[danielfv0]

User: “Hi”.
Me: Hello XX. Thanks for contacting me. How can I help you
User: “I WANT WORK “

[zeus777]

Seriously, I do get annoying messages every now and then, but daaaang,
after reading through this thread…I actually feel lucky!!

Let’s see the worst message I got…
I think I mentioned this before somewhere, but I found a seller who stole my gig image,
I contacted her/him in Japanese ( because she claimed to be one in her profile) , I get a crappy English reply and she said something like "I dont know it was your image OK"
she also added a “I native japanese, OK”

Yup, that was quite annoying.

[fonthaunt]

I got this the other day from someone I had never talked with and there was no other info:

“The only debt I have is medical debt can you work with that thank you”

So i asked him to send details as if its a get well soon design, i will do it for free
Next day he send me a highly detailed logo sketch about a pet clinic 😂

Yeah i’m surprised you agreed to that.

"Some random person who is close to me is in the hospital therefore you should service my completely unrelated business for free 🙂 "

[madyr9228]

I got one messenger who messaged me with “Hi”
(I actually made an automatic response just for those people which basically says “Sorry I’m really busy and unless it’s for business or professional reasons…etc)

He responds back with “not business but pleasure. I want 2 kno u” like that. Then messaged me several times asking what I like to do etc until I blocked him.

At least I’m no longer receiving messages about wanting to see my feet anymore… :woman_facepalming:

Edit: found a typo and had to fix it
