theratypist Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Sorry I don’t know how to hide IP addresses but you do know you can just google that out. Anyway, why do you want to hide your IP address??
dijatul Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 Reply to @theratypist: Its a work for client. That is why .
theratypist Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Reply to @dijatul: Ohh. I don’t really know if it’s okay. But you can try asking Customer Support just to be safe. 🙂
dijatul Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 Reply to @theratypist:I already asked them but you know, how much they delay for answering.
fonthaunt Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 You ate taking big risks for a potentially unethical client. If someone needs you to hide your IP to do VA work, that is very odd. Personally I would not accept an order like that and would cancel if they insisted after ordering. If you are on Fiverr using a proxy or other, it might not hurt, but if it appears you are in a different country suddenly, it could put your gig or account at risk. Why would a client need that unless they were doing something wrong?
solow13 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 You need a proxy, if you don’t know what it is just google it.
misscrystal Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Are you sending large amounts of emails for your client? I can’t imagine what your client is doing that they would hire a VA and tell them to hide their IP.
dijatul Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @misscrystal:Thank you . I have to pretend that I am from USA. otherwise I am not able to research some website. Because they only allow USA people to access . That is why I have to hide my IP and pretend I am from USA.Otherwise I am not able to work .I hope you understand now.

dijatul Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @solow13:Thank you . Do you have any idea about free Ip hide address.
wpfalcon Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 You can use Unlimited Free VPN - Hola, It’s a free extension for google chrome. You can access websites blocked in your country with Hola!I always use this extension to watch one of my favorite show What Would You Do on ABC News 😃
flatpp Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @dijatul: There are many options available. You can use a VPN or a proxy to do this. However, don’t login with your Fiverr account at the same time as this could cause some problems.
sincere18 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @dijatul: yes, but why is your client asking you to research these websites? You should NOT do anything where you have to PRETEND to be somewhere or do something you are not really doing.
sincere18 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @dijatul: Be careful about getting involved in this kind of work though. There might be a reason the buyer does not want to do it themselves and wants you to do it.What kind of research or work on the USA website do you have to do?i am worried for you about this job.
dijatul Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 Reply to @sincere18:Thank you . Its property research from this website.I am not able to do it from my IP.That is why I am asking.ThanksModerator Note: Link irrelevant to other forum readers.
dijatul Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 May you please suggest me any free hide ip address
fonthaunt Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Reply to @dijatul: This is not what this forum is for and you’ve gone on long enough about it. The thread will be moved to Conversations since it is not a FAQ related to Fiverr. If you don’t know how to do something you offer in a gig, do not offer it.

Check the terms on the site where you will be hiding your ip, or better yet phone them to make sure you're not violating their terms by accessing the site from outside the US. If it's ok with them and their terms then just go for it if not then you would be violating their terms and by doing so you would also be violating fiverr's terms (fiverr's terms state that gigs may not violate third party terms).
