carobrandt Posted August 22, 2024 Posted August 22, 2024 I am new here so I already find it weird if I get an order right away, but they keep asking for my email. That is not ok, right? I have reported them. 3
1 priyank_mod Posted August 22, 2024 Posted August 22, 2024 Yups, those are typical scammers targeting new sellers. Never ever share your email id with anyone, it will get your account flagged for TOS violation. 6

0 mt_najmin_nahar Posted August 22, 2024 Posted August 22, 2024 No, you can not share any personal details or contact info, it's against of Fiverr TOS. 3
0 theodora_slo Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 Yes, just got sort of the same messange. Do not fall for this scam. I got suspicious and looked on forum, which was lucky. I hate that I have to deal with this as a new seller. 1
0 style_sheets Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 I personally have been active for just a few days and have already received various messages from obvious scams. Some of them asked for my personal email to continue, others provided their so-called Telegram account for a "big job," haha, and in other cases, as soon as the message arrives, the platform automatically blocks them. For those who are just starting out and are "excited" about their first orders, these scams can definitely be effective. In case of any doubts, always contact support or the community for assistance. I hope I have been of some help to you in some way. Best regards, Michele 1
