sophiaxu575 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I got a message on Fiverr this afternoon and I was pretty excited about the potential bussiness opportunity until I opened it…A man who looked like in his 60 or 70’s told me that he was attracted to me, and he “had a thing” for ******* women. And I reminded him of his deceased wife!! I was totally shocked and offended. Actually, I also received same kind of messages from some other guy before. He asked me if we “could be friends and more”.Man, I am just here selling my translation gigs, plus I am married. Of course Fiverr doesn’t ask for personal information but still…I mean I’m not that hot like those ladies who do modeling gigs here. Will they be harrased in the messages every day?And I can’t even report a user on Fiverr…Can I?Anyway, hope everyone has a great day today.Mod Note: Country/region reference removed.

maedan Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I won’t even start with my experiences. There’s not enough space in this msg box. You can report a message by clicking “Report” and mark inappropriate behavior. With that, you are also blocking any further messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue_mcl Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Most definitely report that message and block the user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orcatek Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Yes, lots. I block and report as others have said. What’s really odd is they don’t even check out my gigs to see me in the videos with my partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neromare Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Wait till you hear my thing… I’m a man and I get harassed too.😬I got asked to be a pimp, literally. Some guy wanted me to find him a woman with whom he’ll go abroad and never return her. He had a requirement, wanted this completed for 6-7 days. He was “in a hurry”. Just report them immediately.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nafeysolutions Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I am shocked…In my opinion the fiverr software should screen the messages before they reach us… they do keep a check when we mention dollars or email in our chat … why can’t they check for other words… 🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it is very common for female sellers getting harassed here, sometimes even males. Fiverr should do something to (at least try to) fix it. Nowadays almost every workplace takes the s****l harassments seriously, why not Fiverr? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I mostly used the mobile app to communicate, I didn’t notice that I can report and block users on the computer webpage. Thank you for your help.

Don’t know if they will careWell, when we report these messages, they go to T&S (Trust & Safety) queue.They’ll review the user behavior and take action accordingly. Due to privacy reasons they don’t give us the details.So, if the user has a history of being a naughty boy or girl they’ll know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
