As a dedicated freelancer, curious to try very projects and professional challenges, I encountered lately a very unpleasant aspect of the "free" work. It means, literally, that after your virtual employer push you with 10+ mails each day regarding the progress of your work, sooner after you deliver the products in due time and expressing your full availability for corrections, the story is over. No money, honey!
In a way, I was lucky enough to lost small amounts of money - the whole lost is around $30 and hope that it is enough - but on the other hand, given the efforts spent with writing and documentation it is a loss.
The best ways to avoid such situations are:
- ask carefully about the payment methods.
- eventually, do not send your articles before part of the sum is released.
- report the theft to the administrators of the website and leave them a bad review. Some people may be as naive as you and trust that intellectual work is always paid work.
