March 11, 2008, filed under Make Money Freelancing
Whether you’re just starting your online freelancing or already make a good living out of it, you will always need to be watchful for scams. Stinging clients usually make use of your basic need of money to get what they want, without spending any, of course. Maybe you’ve heard or seen or least expected, experienced one of these cons behaviour.

- The ‘this is urgent, so work with me’ scam
- The ‘I’ve got plenty of work and you’ll get a better rate later scam’.
Sharon from Freelance Writing Questions, wrote an interesting article about recognizing the early signs of scam and how to deal with it.

Just wanted to point out that this section was taken verbatim from my post (http://getpaidtowriteonline.com/freelance-writing-questions-avoiding-scams/):

* The ‘this is urgent, so work with me’ scam
* The ‘I’ve got plenty of work and you’ll get a better rate later scam’.
