Be Smart, Dont Get Scammed.

Hi, In this post i want to write on few things how you can get scammed and what you should do not to get scammed.First thing is be enthusiastic but don't over do, meaning show the project poster that you are interested but don't give him any part of project that is completed before you guys discuss the money for project, otherwise its for sure you gone be paid lesser than you are actually worth for.

Second my advice is go through the project poster profile before you accept the project , read the reviews others have posted about that person.The better the reviews the more likely you will get payment for what you are worth.If its a new project poster be cautious when you proceed.

Next important aspect is when a free sample is requested give them the sample that has already been published or already been paid, but make sure you tell them about the project where it was published or if it was your previous work.If you are asked for new work then show them what you are capable by doing just a part of it , its always enough to assess any person.

Finally try to have the record of the project poster, if at all they scam you , you will now where to go and whom to ask.

There are many other ways of protecting your payments like using escrows, i have discussed this in other posts pertaining to Elance or Get a free lancer.
