Same offer from Macey Jackobsen <maceyjackobsen@nextwavefreelance.org> May 2

Hi,
I received the same offer from Macey Jackobsen and it seemed suspicious from the very beginning since it didn't state how they found my contact details. Also, they stated strange payment conditions like upfront payment of 50% after submitting 30% of the work in four days. Also, they kept talking about my "unique skills" although the have never worked with me. Too good to be true, for me!
Glad that I checked this website before committing to anything!

I also received very similar email! May 5

Hi,

I have received a similar email from nextwavefreelance.org offering:

"£5,500 for 15,182 words."

"Advance Payment: 50% of the budget after delivering the first 30% of the work."

"50% upfront after submitting the initial 30% of work."

It is too good to be true.

Regards,
Ahmed.
