🚨 Warning: NEVER Pay a Freelancer Outside Gig.tn! 🚨
If a freelancer asks you to pay outside the platform (e.g., through PayPal, bank transfer, cryptocurrency, etc.), this is a red flag.
Why Paying Outside Gig.tn Is a Huge Risk:
❌ You lose all buyer protection—if the freelancer disappears, you cannot get a refund.
❌ Gig.tn cannot mediate disputes for off-platform payments.
❌ It violates Gig.tn’s policies, and the freelancer may be trying to scam you.
📌 What to Do If a Freelancer Requests Off-Platform Payment:
Immediately stop communication with them.
Report them to Gig.tn Support through the Help Center.
Only proceed with orders directly through Gig.tn, where your payment is protected.
If a freelancer violates this rule, they may be permanently banned from Gig.tn.
