    It’s fake a clear scam

    If you read the terms and conditions, and understood the Escrow system, you'd know this is a scam.

    As I see it there are two possibilities. It is probably a scam, especially when they talk about "linking your account". That is where they ask you to pay money and they keep it and run off. If they are offering a lot of money, it is a scam.

    The other alternative is that they are farming out low quality work. They will have terrible terms and conditions where they can avoid paying you for all kinds of reasons. They demand that you work exclusively for them, while not guaranteeing you any work. They may even have financial penalties and liabilities for you if something goes wrong with the project. If someone came to me privately with a list like that, items 1, 4 and 7 immediately tell me not to touch it.

    Either way, PPH need to clean up the platform and get rid of these. Until they stop giving buyer accounts to anonymous people, and start enforcing identity checks, it isn't going to get any better. They know they will lose a lot of the small jobs if they do that, so they carry on as it is. As it is, reporting buyers and projects doesn't do any good because they just come back with another fake identity.
