Labor Scam
On May 2, 2020, I received a work folder in which it was about book translation, Mrs. Danielle J. wrote me through the pph chat to perform a series of steps to contact the company (https://pageworks.co.page) and communicate with human resources, once the process was completed, I was sent to Mr. Richar of human resources who made an informal interview only by email without even asking me a video call to make a formal interview.
When I finally approved the interview they sent me a series of documents to sign as a contract, where they explain that they have problems making payments via paypal, pyoneer and other means, therefore they use their own integrator which I distrusted however.
They sent me the first works and once finished they told me about the payment that I had to download an integrator to be able to make my payment which was never explained to me in detail how the payment process was since that had to be done by the human resources guy with whom I was communicating, to whom I asked if I did not have another payment method to which I answered no because of the laws of Belarus insisting again with the Paysecure page ( https://paysecure. travel/) to download it and continue with the payment, I downloaded it through a link that I was given since it did not appear in the play store ( https://appswebs. websites.co. in/) , when I managed to download and register in this app they told me to send them my account ID that I created to deposit, they deposited me but the problem was that in this account they were asking me to buy a wallet of 100 dollars so that the money they deposited me into my account, I did, but then the tech support guy at the app told me that my wallet didn't have room for the money I was deposited with. Question: I was asked in advance to buy the $100 wallet.
Once I managed to get the money which cost me a lot asking many people one of them was one of the contacts that Richard gave me from human resources at work to give us information of mutual work I wrote to all of them to give me information of the page paysecure answering that if it was reliable and that all had received their money, I told one of them named Olivia Nora and she told me she had 300 dollars to lend me some money but not bitcois because I could not buy my wallet and she didn't answer me anymore, until yesterday (12/06/2020) when he wrote to me asking if I had already bought my wallet. I answered yes and suddenly he told me that he had asked his brother in the UK to make the deposit, something that was never mentioned to me, today i woke up with an absurd amount of money in my account making me realize that all this was handled in a scam where all the people from the company are involved along with the inexistent application ended up stealing 500 dollars from me and now they want me to pay 5000 dollars to keep increasing'' the space in my wallet. I would like to update this page and who also hired me through PPH.
Here is the link to his profile: https://www.peopleperhour.com/freelancer/danielle-recruiter-vawajmq?ref=buyer.
I am waiting for your answer immediately, thank you very much.

Hi! I can't believe I actually found something on this so called translation company. I was contacted by them in the same way you described. I've already done some translations but they haven't paid me yet although they said payments were done weekly. I was wondering if you could tell me what happened afterwards. Looking forward to reading your reply. Thanks in advance

Same here, I haven't found this review before until I got hired to translate their English documents to Filipino, which is really bad because they haven't paid me yet after saying that payments were done weekly. I contacted them via Skype, but the HR called Richard becomes unresponsive, which really triggers my temper after I translated almost 4,000 words. I put an effort and sleepless nights to finish the job, but after all they were just scammers all throughout.
SANA PALA NOONG UNA PA LANG HINDI KO NA IN-ACCEPT IYONG OFFER, DAHIL UNA SA LAHAT INEXISTING NAMAN IYONG PAGE NILA EH. KUMBAGA TAGUNG-TAGO.
Just wrote the words above with my native language, don't worry I didn't say bad words. I just express the feeling that I still have right now. If I could even report their page, then why not.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts anyway! :)
