Getafreelancer.com is a scam site. one customer had selected us, gave us project details, kept communicating ON and OFF, kept paying ON and OFF and then suddenly disappeared for a month.

He then came back and told he wanted to continue and we were busy doing other projects. we told him it would take more man power and time and requested additional payment which is a fair business practice considering his erratic communication.

He then asked for us to complete the website for the payments he made which was 50% of what he had initially negotiated.

When we declined to continue, he silently reported to getafreelancer.com and guess what they did? they reversed payments from our account ( we curse ourselves for keeping payments there ) and sent back all the payments he made without trying to investigate who is at fault.

Make no mistake getafreelancer.com - we already started the process of finding your company and are going to take a legal course to get justice served.

these kind of unauthorized and unethical actions will not happen forever and we will spread out word to the world through internet to know that your site is a scam website that only has personal interests.

Hi there

Since the poster has not left his username we can't reply to the above claim. Operating a marketplace (like eBay), from time to time disputes do occur between employers and freelancers. We have a dispute resolution system for handling these issues. We don't reverse payments outside this system.
