Hello,

I registered my account and created my first fiverr gig yesterday. The response has been overwhelming! But unfortunately it has been nothing but spam, variations of the messages asking to get your email address or phone number. 
I have gotten 17 requests in about 12 hours, and none of them are legit. Is this normal? 
Does everyone on here deal with this? If that is the case, how?
So far this site seems very disappointing.
Thank you for any insight.
Jørgen

Oh, that’s normal. Don’t give out any personal information. They are all scammers. However, I realized once you answer and call them out on being scammers, you receive less of those messages. 
 

also, yeah, I’m new too, disappointment about receiving nothing but scammers messages is there, but also, I understand this is business and like any other it takes time to build and there’s a lot of competition.

Thank you, good to know that it at least dies down. Good points!

These are very common issues here. You have to deal with them patiently. But the good thing is that they don't count towards your message reply on Fiverr.

I replied to all those scam messages on time. And my response score is 100%
