Getafreelancer.com This company suspends accounts and keeps your money!

Do not ever use freelancer.com unless you like o work for free!

This company does several fraudulent things to its users. Any excuse at all to keep you from getting your money. I am only the most recent victim.

When you win a bid on a freelance project then request to withdraw the money so you can access the money through Paypal, etc. They take between 5 and 15 days to release the funds - that's if you're lucky.

If you are not lucky they will arbitrarily suspend your account and not allow you to access or withdraw your funds.

It looks like these guys select users at random or in some other manner and withhold their money. They wait for a while until you've got a good sum in your account with them, then cut you off from your account and keep your funds.

This is one of the methods they use:
They demand that you send them a copy of your passport or state ID 'For Security Reasons', then several days later they demand that you take a photo of yourself holding up the ID, then when you comply with their request they completely ignore you and never reply.
