Hello, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. For hourly contracts, payments are protected when time is logged with the Upwork Time Tracker and follow all the guidelines in the payment protection article. In order to review this, please DM us the username or email associated with your account.

@Upwork Ticket #43073826 — Payment reversed just because memo was missing, even though hours were tracked screenshot added and client confirmed the work. Client updated billing but freelancer still loses money. After 12+ years since Elance days, this feels very unsafe. #upwork

Hi, thank you for flagging this, and we’re really glad you caught it early. This is not something we take lightly. Please report the client directly through the job or message thread, or feel free to DM us with more details so our team can investigate further. Your safety on the platform is very important to us

Dear @Upwork I recently applied for a blockchain development role on your platform and engaged with a client who provided a codebase after a brief interview. Upon reviewing the code, I discovered malicious logic designed to extract private keys posing a direct risk of wallet compromise and fund theft. While I identified the issue before executing the code, this incident highlights a serious security gap affecting developers on your platform. In addition to the security risk, I lost time and Connects engaging with what turned out to be a malicious actor. I urge Upwork to strengthen vetting mechanisms for technical job postings and provide better protection for developers handling executable code. This is not just about lost opportunities, it’s about user safety.

Hi @Upwork, my account (ticket #54555769) was suspended, and all replies just trigger automated messages. I have accidentally marked “U.S. citizen” instead of “U.S. tax resident,” but I’m not sure if that caused it. Could someone review my case manualy? Thanks!
