This company is a ripoff and a scam. First the site is filled with many people from India that stated we can do the job, and they can't or many jobs you bid on end up being canceled. i get 99.9% of the jobs I bid on canceled by the employee, a real waste of time. now i post a job looking for marketing and i list the site as prices can vary depending on the site so what do they do, they close the job and refuse to refund my project fee. They are a bunch of thieves. i looked in the tos and nowhere did it state you can't post your website to show the employee the type of site your bidding on and 85% of the projects have sites listed in them. They are truly a waste of time, money and effort, they steal your money and ignore your emails.
I would ignore this at all cost as you are only wasting time where you can go elsewhere and make a better deal. i think the real reason was that the site I posted which was simpleworkers.com was competition to them on a smaller scale, not sure but odd how every other project i had listed had my website yet this one is the only one they closed and refused to refund the project fee. i have at this point request a refund of funds in my account and i no longer plan on posting a project with them, they are a ripoff anyhow as they charge both the emploer and employee fees for one project, they charge us twice for one project, horrible service and it take 2-3 weeks to withdraw money that you funded to your paypal account, sounds like a bucnh of robbers, thieves and too cheap to hire more help

yeah, don't make it public so people can't see the real company, even a company like ebay would reply publicly to show their image. What are you hiding? atleast this shows the readers that you would only hide the fact that you intentionally close jobs just so you can keep the project fees. your a scam in specific aspects and your site is trash, maybe change it to indialancer.com instead since most of your clients are from india and they are the ones scamming. your site is there to protect both parties, so not only do we pay commissions, now to resolve matters, you even charge for that, bunch of crooks, go to guru.com or the many others, way nicer enviroment and don't have to deal with lies and cheats, but what would you expect from an australian company.
