Yes, there are real clients here. However, it took me 45 days to get my first order. That was 2.5 years ago. I did not get much spam then. I’m working on creating more gigs to put out there and I will just keep my eye out and report the spam/scam as early as I see them coming. I’m positive I’ll be able to find clients and it’s just a matter of time. They can’t knock me off my high house just yet! =] Thanks for replying and have a great day!

I hope you and I will get an offer soon! I’m trying my hardest to stay upbeat.

Thanks for the feedback! I for sure reported both of them. One of them is still active on the platform so I guess some of them still slip along the cracks. =/ Thanks for the feedback!

Not a problem! I was just concerned but not a little relieved to hear everyone experience this type of feedback from the get-go! Have a great day!

Thank you for sharing and having some positive light on this topic. I look forward to my first legit client. I am constantly refreshing my screen patiently waiting! =) I will learn to take the good along with the bad on this platform. I truly appreciate your feedback. Nice to hear from someone 4 months into this! Have a great day!

Yes, it’s pretty sad seeing this abuse on this platform. I too hope there is a resolution in the works to keep the spam/scam to a minimum. Have you received any legit clients on here yet or am I just wasting my time? Thanks for replying!

I totally agree! I hope in the future they find a way to combat this serious issue with this platform. For someone new, it’s very discouraging. Have a great day!

I appreciate the time you took to write back and thank you for hearing me vent. Have a great day and I’ll keep your suggestions to heart!

Hello to anyone listening! I just signed up and was eager to get going with Fiverr. I read a lot of people’s success stories over the web and was excited to join this community of freelancers. After setting up my first gig, I received my first message. I was super excited and couldn’t wait to see what the offer entailed. Once reading the message and carefully looking, I noticed the buyer was spelling ■■■■■ like this “$kype”. When I typed back that I don’t have ■■■■■ the terms and conditions policy reminder popped up. That was my first red flag since I’m new. The next following day (which is today November 25, 2019) I received another message. At this point, my excitement is only 50/50. I want to be optimistic but I’m naturally a realist and know-how corrupt this world can be. I opened the message and there was a link to further describe the job they wanted complete. The link was to dropbox with a pdf. The profile of the person was from the USA but the pdf was from a person in China. They wanted me to build websites offering $1500 a week. I reported the sender as spam. I’m just curious to see if there are real clients for newcomers on Fiverr or will I constantly be spammed by all the scams? Any help on this situation would be greatly appreciated! I tried to comment on Fiverr’s latest post on Instagram but they limit comments and I guess the reason is for this exact experience I’m having. Thank you, Patrick Perez
