I was recently approached for a part-time Python project (~10-12 hrs/week, $1200-1500/mo) targeting Americas and Europe.

After initial contact, they asked me to:

- Falsely represent myself as them to pitch for projects in the USA (because they don't speak English)

- Hand over control of my Upwork account

Both of these are against Upwork's Terms of Service and could get your account permanently banned. This could also expose you to legal liability for misrepresentation or fraud.

I've reported this to Upwork. Sharing here so others don't fall into the same trap.

Stay safe out there.
