Check:
- Post time – apply early
- Title red flags – “Cash Cow,” “YouTube Automation,” fake “LONG TERM”
- Client basics Info Like:
- Location
- Payment verified
- Job duration (longer = better)
- Hours (<5 = risky)
- Budget (often placeholder)
- Proposal count
- <5 = fresh
- 10+ = high competition
- Tone & wording
- Aggressive or demanding + low budget = skip
🔍 Deep Client Check (After Opening)
- Payment + phone verified
- Old account + unverified payment = red flag
- Hire rate (<60% = ghosting risk)
