alw1nl Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Just received the following message (below) but it’s lacking any confirmation that this guy is an official at Fiverr, no logo at his profile page, nothing and unclear information when I lookup the whois data of the mentioned ‘voting’ website. Is this a scammer/hacker or really a Fiverr official? (in that case suggest making it clear on the profile page to protect users)‘agent_jhn (modified)Hi alwnl,Are you still waiting for more sales?(link to ‘Fiverr vote website’ removed)Don’t worry here is the best place to promote and earn more sales traffic for your Gigs.Just vote and then you can see your Gigs with Fiverr main category page.Note: Please vote using your unique Fiverr account and don’t use this offer with multiple accounts.This offer valid until 31st December.Regards,Fiverr Team’Redirectinghttp://■■■■■■ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanc99 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Hey alw1n!This is spam and fraud, I would change your password now just in case.Also for your sake I would remove the username that sent you this message because this forum does not like to call people out! Instead replace the username with frogglesrock.Also remove that link so no one gets curious and clicks it. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepromogirl Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 It’s a phishing message! Be sure to report it using the ‘report’ button in the bottom right of the message box and if possible, please contact Customer Service with a screenshot of the message and report the user. The team will handle so no other users on Fiverr are contacted and put at risk of having their accounts compromised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
