Very odd, non-specific message from new FIVERR user to me

[talkwithscott]

Hey all,

I just launched my first gig this week, and I got a message from a user that just signed up.  It says -

Hello. 

I need you to get me a job done.

That's it.

It came in a 2:55 am. I've asked for specifics.

This seems odd to me that:

They just joined
No specifics
Short message
Very early in the morning
New user, no info on them

In your experiences, is this signaling something? Should I watch for something next?

Thanks!

Hi! Welcome to Fiverr! 

I get messages like that all the time. Occasionally they lead to an order, most times not. If a person is new to buying on the platform, they may need some hand-holding through the order process. Either way, reply to them and let them know you are happy to help, and ask questions to learn more about the potential project.

Good luck out there!

Sounds good. Thank you!

What's early in the morning for you could be a late afternoon for them, depending on their time zone.

Anyway, you did what you could: you asked them for specifics. The proverbial ball is in their court now.
