@wdub Thanks for posting this op.. I was talking to this guy a few days back on LinkedIn for building a saas tool.. glad I didn’t initiate the transaction
@wdub I've accused to be a scammer just because I build SaaS MVPs for $4.5K. I believe It's because of those kind of people. I'm sorry you've had such a bad experience As an advice to people that may hire someone in the future, please do not start working someone without seeing social proofs, meeting with them, seeing previous works.
I even couldn't convey the person who accused me to be a scammer even though I'm a freelancer on Upwork which I have top rated, and %100 job success score badge. I don't even have one single negative comments on my profile. so I'm not sure how to differ myself from those scammers
@wdub I feel you pain. Next time please check Upwork or other freelance sites for people that have higher ratings. Also give them 1-2 small test tasks before hiring them.
I strongly recommend to use WordPress. It saves so much time, money and there are so many people that know it.
I have created 4-5 saas apps that are using it one way or another.
@wdub There was another user /@genjesus that started spamming the sub with a similar offer right after that thread. Take a look at the post history and you'll find they're most likely the same person. I had a feeling he got someone to bite on the $500 offer and upped the price to see if he could scam some more.
Funny enough he actually commented under this post under that alt account.
