hetahilda Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I have a translation gig and I got a message asking if i’m native speaker (which I’ve already made clear that I am). Then they wanted me to send my Insta because apparently they’ve had bad experiences with fake accs from Asia. Uhhh…is this normal to ask such proofs? o.o 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chester48 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Send your insta, but state that you must get paid only through fiverr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanielm Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Do not send your Insta. It is against TOS to initiate contact outside of Fiverr. There is a list of approved portfolio sites you can use in the TOS, but I’m pretty sure Instagram is not one of them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looseink Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 What does Instagram have to do with Fiverr?It sounds to me like the Buyer is trying to pull one over on you.I’ve been on Fiverr for five years.I’ve NEVER been asked to verify who I am by a Buyer through the use of any of my social media feeds.It sounds fishy to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
