Welocalize Avis 

I did a long editing job for Welocalize.com. Was promised 1600 Euros. They told me they were extremely pleased with the job I did, but then they didn't pay me. In fact they asked me to pay them 110 Euros for a code I needed in order to get paid (they said they'd pay it back), and stupidly, I paid that. I didn't get it back nor did I get paid for my work. In fact they kept asking me for yet more money for brokerage fees and for proof that I was a freelancer! (I didn't pay)

È una truffa. Ti contattano per fare una traduzione urgente di 30 o 50 pagine proponendo circa 2000 euro in cambio. Una volta che hai terminato il lavoro devi mandarlo all’indirizzo mail della compagnia che prima deve verificare il lavoro, poi ti manda una mail di congratulazioni e uno screen che il pagamento è stato fatto, ma solo a questo punto ti dicono che per poter far sì che il pagamento si sblocchi, devi pagare tu una somma di denaro (nel mio caso €100) attraverso skrills. Quando inizi a dubitare ti chiedono se vuoi firmare un contratto, anche questo sembra falso.
Non fidatevi.

I think it's a scam because they ask for the SIN and, when I pointed out the poor ratings on Trustpilot, they just shut down the application process.

Please be careful!

after they entrusted me with a translation and complimented me on my work, they told me that in order to receive my payment I had to pay them an annual membership fee of at least €200. obviously when I asked them how the work worked and what they need by my side, they didn't say.

In the second week from december 2024 they invited me for a role, for which they "urgently" needed people in my country. I applied immediately and received the inventation to the onboarding process on the 24th. Because I was eager for some extra work and really wanted the role I did the whole course (~5hrs) on Christmas day. In the following weeks I heard nothing... So a few days ago I asked for a follow up only to receive this message:
Due to the overwhelming number of qualified candidates and recent changes in the project scope, we need to reassess our capacity before moving forward to the next step. Unfortunately, this means we are unable to include you in the next stage of the campaign at this time.

Mind you I had to ask for a follow up and they invited me... Don't waste your time like me.

One more 1-star to the collection. I wish to thank everybody here who saved me valuable time today.

I did a data entry job for them. Scam, they want you to pay them $50 for a job you did for them before you can be paid.

It’s a dumb “job,” honestly. So basically you apply for the job send them your resume and boom they email you. I was emailed a day later saying they wanted to move forward. I’m thinking im already hired because duh. However I wasn’t, they gave me a study guide that was extremely long, watched boring long videos about the company but im like okay. I studied EVERYTHING and got the point of the job which is clearly why I applied. Took the test I knew the answers were right and boom they email me saying I failed… im confused so they email me days later to retry this Exam I try again still fail then again fail again and the final time fail again. I looked ever the internet and apparently lots of people are studying hard just to fail, so I knew it was a scam and waste of time at that point. So basically they have you doing dumb exams and will fail you. It’s pointless honestly.

I see this job on a recruiting website. I urgently need a job at that time. So I applied.
The task process is lengthy and tedious, and the work relies entirely on luck. One month's salary is equivalent to a single dinner in a regular restaurant.

After receiving the application response email, I went through the whole process of setting up the Okta account. Then, they ask this question about whether or not you agree to the salary in the listing. There wasn't a salary listed. I'm not foolish enough to agree to an unknown wage. This is indicative of deception right from the start. I chose "no," and I guess they don't like that I paid attention to that (despite the job description requiring excellent attention to detail), and of course, they sent me the denial email :) ...

I wouldn't have given them 1 star either but without rating. I wouldn't be able to right this. They are damn scammer they took my money and even they asking for more in order to get paid. They posted on threads, that they hire urgent freelance work to do their job. He said he was the elder who gave the project so I should trust him I trusted that scum and he took my project and told me to contact their fake manager. I contacted him he firstly said I should pay 30$ I told him that I'm a student and I can't afford this much money. He said pay and I won't ask you trust me. I gave him he again asked me to give 50$ more for their account linking they ask me to creat my account on Fortis Capital bank online. I did it they send the money their they said if you want to activate your account for funds transfer I should pay them 100$ it's a refundable. I told them to send me bank I took 2 loans to give them this money that bastard send this money on that damned account. And now asking me for 200$ for card activation and then they go for their so called account activation process. I tried thousand of time to search for that bank but I can't even find location of the bank nor I find their email to contact them. They literally put my reputation on risk and these bastards are still on this bull shit that I should trust their words while breaking all the promises they don't have any remorse that they put the innocent student reputation at risk.

Passed all the tests (even after inconsistent training materials which had not been updated properly) and then was kept waiting since June so that is now over 6 months. They said there was something else I needed to enter but their system told me there was nothing to do and then they ignored me. The job was to be paid for less than the minimum wage in the UK and now they still hold on to my Raterhub.com rating site access so I can't even apply anywhere else. Completely incompetent and unhelpful as well as paying low rate of pay. Don't bother.

They overhire ppl, for all projects,and they start to make excuses, and create nonsense, task distributions: some, groups, of raters, get NTA, and others, get tasks, all week. AUTOMATIC RESPONSES FOR ALL POSSIBLE QUESTIONS YOU SEND TO THEM.

They offer a translation job English/spanish, English/italian in my case. 50pdf = € 2,000
100pdf = €2,500. 3 days to get it done.
When you’ve done the job they need the “company approval”.
After that they ask you to create a link between your bank and Bank of America. You have to make a deposit of €150 that will be refunded with your compensation.
At that stage I’ve applied to the same position with a different team member.
I’ve been contacted by a second person who sent exactly the same job offer, same message.
When I agreed and requested the material to translate he sent me exactly the same documents I’ve already submitted days before.
SCAM. Do not transfer any money to get paid for a job you’ve already done

You go through a process that takes several hours (around 10 hours in total) AFTER an initial acceptance, with no payment at all, only to receive an email saying that they are not currently looking for anyone. UNBELIEVABLE!

Linkedin offers. Salary shown in American dollars and not Euros and based on tasks but maximum gross salary is less than legal required. Obligatory to work as a freelancer so for offers based in Spain minium mensual salary equals to the entire freelancer mensual tax quote. So you could basically work for nothing. What a joke.

ABSOLUTE SCAMMERS!
DONT AVOID YOUR TIME!

THESE ARE THE SAME SCAMMERS THAT ARE BEHIND TELUS INTERNATIONAL. RUNNNNNN!!!!!

Working at 7eleven would be a better life effort for $14 an hour. Very inconsistent training course, totally not worth the time spent trying to pass exam.

In the almost three years I've had this number, and the many more that I've had my Email, I've not once received a scam text or email. Ever since I applied to them I've been getting random scam emails and text messages almost daily. Feels really scummy
