these guys are the biggest scammers ever, i completed a project for +6000 dollars on freelancer, and after beeing payed by the amployer, and the project beeing completely finished, THEY WONT LET ME WITHDRAW THE FUNDS !!!

they now claim that the employer of that project is under investigation, but when i contact them, they know nothing about this ..

note that at this point in time, the employer has no reason whatsoever, to spend anymore time fixing this matter, as his work has been delivered, and he has already made payment to freelancer, released the milestone, and finished the project.

but now, I have to tell me employer, to ask freelancer whatsup ?

so freelancer told them they didint trust that the account was china based, yet logins where made from other locations. so my employer explained why they needed a vpn in China, DUH

they then proceeded to request pictures of documents a copy of his id, AND a photo of him holding a printed out code wich they provided !! so he complied, but they them also needed a copy of hi's ENTRY STAMPS ON HIS PASSPORT? showing that he entered china ...

so my employer complied again .

(note that i knew all this from communicating with my employer at this point, as freelancer was ignoring me completely)

but now freelancer needed more documents, in english, wich my employer cant seem to get hold of in China (if i go to my Dutch bank and request chinese docs they wont comply either, duh)

anyway, so now we are stuck, beeing ignored, with +600 dollars in my account, wich they wont let me withdraw

notice the whole trivk here,

if you DO manage to get money from your employer into your account, they will simply refuse it when you try to wothdraw . at wich point you have to go haras your EX-employer, wich has not time for taking selfies, days on end, scanning docs, rescanning docs, over and over .

so their whole plan is simply for the employer to get sick of it, and stop trying, THEY HAVE NO REASON OTHERWISE, THEY PAYED AND GOT RESULT, DONE. and freelancer goes of with the money ..
