Freelancer — I was cheated by a client and they refuse to help me

Website:Freelancer.com

I was cheated by a client on Freelancer.com that they led me to believe was legitimate. On the site, I believed that this was a legitimate business and it had been verified, as per all of their guidelines. The company refused to step in after this client took 25 hours of my work and simply disappeared.

According to Freelancer, they were “verified” — email, funds, etc. and when I brought this up, they stated this person was “not verified” — even though they misled me to believe they were.

Now I have been cheated for 25 hours of employment with no resolution. The “chat support” was utterly useless, and I have no way of recuperating the money that’s owed to me. This is unacceptable. I want Freelancer.com to pay this outstanding invoice, as they misled me in presenting this project as verified and honest.
