Damn! Thanks for sharing. I literally just got an “acceptance “ letter from them after recently applying. Thanks for suffering through so we don’t have too!

I also received an "acceptance" letter as well just now. I was uncomfortable with sharing my banking details to register for PayPal, so I think I'm not going to proceed with the application.

@@theozarksjourneytoself-suf5420 you will be billed. The idea is that, you sign up for the "free" month, which is billed after 30 days, then it becomes recurrent. Once you connect PayPal, that's it. Disconnect all your cards from that PayPal account, because you will be billed monthly, and the "cancel" process is a scam. Even when i was a "member" they never posted any jobs, and never responded for the ones I'd applied. What you pay for can be accessed for free on other platforms. I only got a recommendation letter (after doing a test article to "qualify"). I have a feeling that recommendation letter has cost me a few employment opportunities..

This organisation is all over LinkedIn right now. Thank you for sharing your experience - I too received an acceptance email recently and was confused when they asked for my banking / PayPal info. I did not sign up and now I'm extremely relieved that I didn't.

Scam companies and highly unsuccessful startups are all over LinkedIn. They have so many job opportunities

It's extremely discouraging to find the following: - fake remote work offers - fake on site work offers - job hunt platforms where you pay to see and apply for offers... and they could still be a scam. Thank you for sharing. This makes people suffer for real.

@@Anusha-fv8tz i was also accepted.. i signed up for the free trial, but i couldn't cancel. no one answered any email... Thank God it was a new PayPal acc, so wasn't connected to my bank or cards, so they've racked up a bill on that acc. They do not offer jobs... Even when i applied to the tasks there was no response. Most of the time, they didn't have any tasks yet i had signed up. I'm so disappointed... Anyways we live and learn.

It's amazing when you get that message you'd be waiting for...finally good legit freelance work! Then it turns out to be a scam and you can't avoid feeling depressed lol.

Hi Zulie, very good advice! There are so many writing and editorial organizations these days that you must be very careful who you register with. Thank you.

When they asked me to connect my Paypal for the basic membership which was supposedly "FREE" I immediately knew this was a scam.

That is when I googled this video!

I just received the same email from the same person and immediately had a bad gut feeling, because who goes around offering job opps without even talking about the conditions? 😅 This vid confirms my suspicions. Thanks for making it!!

Thanks for this! Their job posts are all over LinkedIn but upon closer inspection, the "hiring team" for each job links to somebody with completely unrelated experience (there was even a pharmacist) and based on an entirely different continent. Very dodgy indeed.

great video 🙌 thank you for taking the time to clean up corruption! you do a great job and it’s to bad the social media outlets don’t do a better job at spotting crooks!

Thanks for sharing your horrible experience with IAPWE; this is really an eye opener for every one.

Thank you Zulie. You really opened my eyes. I've just received an email from them saying that payments will be made through the Freelancer platform and bla bla bla...Good thing I did some research before proceeding with the application

I also applied on Linkedin and after a couple of months just received an email that set off an immediate alert as not quite professional. Thankfully I decided to do a check before signing up. Thank you for sharing your experience, Zulie!

Thank you so much Zulie! I was about to subscribe for a paid membership but I decided to research a little and thanks God i found this video, you saved me a headache❤

I also just got accepted but felt weird that I needed to pay for membership to "work" for them. They also didn't mentioned anything about payment. I went throughout the link and immediately felt weird after they forced me to add my PayPal and I'm like nope💀💀💀 so I ran to youtube. Thanks a lot for sharing this😢

Thank you for this. I’m a professional writer and thought I’d expand my base of clients. Got the ‘acceptance’ email and their sketchy wording made me dig deeper into the legit nature of this. So grateful to listen to your review… thank you for diving in in the name of science and saving me the headaches. That deserves a follow. 😉💥

I’m from Costa Rica and I had it on my LinkedIn, I felt weird with the application process and just received an “acceptance” letter, thank you for your video.

Thank you, Zulie! I see their ads on Linkedin and elsewhere and applied. It felt scammy but I thought I'd check it out anyway. I got an offer letter, and it too seemed scammy. Thanks for your insight! I'm happy to say I avoided this one!

I'm Brazilian and they started to appear in my LinkedIn. The way that they say to you to apply for the charge is strange and I was chock that something like this appears in my Portuguese LinkedIn. I have never searched for a job in other countries. Thank you for your video, it saved me a lot of time.

Thank you for sharing! They are all over LinkedIn now, so I too applied and just got this 'acceptance' email. It seemed scammy, I'm glad I did some research and found your video. At this point, I'll skip science purposes :) Best from Bosnia and Herzegovina!

Thanks for sharing. This warning is an eye opener. Blessings for you, Zullie

Thank you so much! I was about to send them my email and write for them. You saved me weeks of frustration. Thanks again and subscribed.

Thank you for making this video! I've been applying for a bunch of writing jobs and I received and email that linked me to IAPWE which I was immediately suspicious of. Glad I did my research before ignorantly signing up!

i have noticed with likeden jobs- you need to go to the source and not use linkedin, seems like they are a promo hub but their application process goes to the employers junk mail and supplies a rejection letter - that is what i have found

Thank you so much for this video! I've received last night an email of acceptance. I honestly forgot I did apply to this, as almost 2 months passed. The email was from IAPWE, seemed very legit so I registered both on their website and they Freelance portal. They offered now a Basic Free membership, so I logged in with PayPal and didn't pay anything on the spot. However, when I checked my memberships there was an upcoming fee of $5 (don't know when, next month?) I canceled right away and I didn't encounter any issues. Now, my bad I didn't Google them before registering :D but I am very hesitant to send them any content as they will probably not pay, so thank you for this video. Sorry you went through this. We should make our own platform as writers and let the clients come to us! 🤩🤩🤩

Hello, I registered today but I really don't know how can I cancell the registration, subscription and my paypall account from there. Can you please help me? Thank you.

I responded, "And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation - some face of my life - unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God’s world by mistake."

Thanks for covering this. They've just started advertising in Rwanda and I was looking at it, though 'late-night brainstorming sessions' don't sound as much fun as they seem to think they do.

The things you put yourself through for science. Thank you!

Thank you for the review. Highly useful. I received an email earlier this week that is exactly as you describe. I had submitted an application about two months ago through a separate job board, I don't know if the recent email was connected with that or simply random. The email looks legit (It doesn't have obvious red flags I've encountered in other scam/phish job-search correspondence. But when I got to the registration screen through the link, I decided to do general web search for IAPWE - it returned mostly negative feedback.

Thank you for making this video! Just got an "acceptance" letter from IAPWE too and found the website a bit sketchy like not a professional's one (even though that's what they promote as an agency 🙄). So relieved that I found your video first before registering!

Gosh, thanks so much for this. Side note: love your earrings!

Thank you so much for the video! I just got my "acceptance" email as well and I noped out when they asked me to login with PayPal. Thanks again and best of luck out there!

Thanks, Zulie. Great points as usual.

Thank you for this. Super glad I checked out your video first - I was able to stop at the first red flag. Also received an acceptance letter this morning.

Thank you for highlighting this. I signed up a few days back. But alerting me of this helped me already.

Thank you, Zulie for creating this video, please share with us those websites whos not scams or really legit. hope you can do it for us, Take Care and Thank you once again.

Thank you so much for taking the time to go through this and sharing your experience!

Thanks for sharnig! So glad I watched your video right before proceeding with them :)

Thank you for this Zulie, you saved me a bunch of hassle!

Thanks for sharing. Is getting very common to get into site that first you pay then go throu the "incredible journey of be member of.." but no jobs or offers. Have a nice friday!!

Thank you Zulie for sharing your experience! Helped a lot.

My wife stop the process as soon as they were asking for CC information in PayPal. There's no reason to ask for money if they're offering jobs. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Thank you! I just recieved an email like this and somehow felt weird. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for sharing this !! I had just received their email. When I look through the register website and the membership options, I feel so weird about it,,, and now i found out your video! Thank god i didn't sign up for anything! U hlp a lot!!

All right. Thank you for posting this video. I saw a job offer of theirs on LinkedIn, but first I checked their website and then I also wanted to check a little further and found this video with those red flags. So thank you for posting it.

Sorry to hear your experience. Thanks a lot for your extremely useful information.

Subscribed, thank you Zulie! Got accepted seen your video clicked it before registration. Your the 💥 💣💥‼️‼️‼️

So glad I found this video! the acceptance email looked weird and here I am! Thank you!

Thanks for sharing your true experience. I literally just got an “acceptance “ letter from them dated 28/08/2023, after recently applying.

Thank you for your video, I'm from Brazil and they put this "job" on LinkedIn for others countries, as always I made a research and found your video, I already suspected that is a scam, first the descrition is totally in English and don't said if we should write in Portuguese or what level of English we should have, second the payment is insane, dollar values so much than real (our money) and if that was true I would be rich in a week, third in the LinkedIn page shows only 2-10 employeers and that is quite low for a "International Association".

Thank you very much, Zulie. You just saved me from wasting a lot of time and resources. God bless you!

Thanks for this video. Boy, you sure are going to make that guy (Melissa Colmean) mad! By the way, for those who also get the email, you might notice how the sender makes a mistake spelling in their own name in the signature. It looks like they should use those writer's resources themselves! 🙂

Thanks so much for sharing your experience and saving so many others from going through the same experience.

Hi Zulie. Sorry you went through all of that. It's a shame people invest so much time, and perhaps even talent, in the pursuit of "victims". Honestly, I don't know how they live with themselves. Best of luck to you in the future and thanks for the video. I, too, just received my "job offer." LOL I will not be pursuing further.

Spent a good two hours on my writing sample for absolutely nothing. Currently out of work and desperately trying to find something, only for a company like this to waste my time and get my hopes up with what I thought was lead in a job. These scammers are the lowest of the low.

Its all over Linkedin! We should all report it! Thanks so much for your review!!

I love your video, thanks for the info!Helped me a lot!😊

Thank you so much for posting this! Truly, thank you!

Hi Zulie, just wanted to write you a quick note to thank you for your effort. You have saved us a great deal of grief and wasted time. :D

THANK YOU. Thanks for sharing here. I've received the “acceptance “ letter from them this morning. Regarding to the PAYPAL process I also feed confused about it.

Thank you for this! Disappointed but not surprised that my only response to recent applications was a scam. Really appreciate your input

i was just going to sign up but your video saved me!!

Hi Zulie. Thanks for sharing ! I received the mail "acceptance" and I think yo myself ,I m going to google it. And I find your video. Thank you !!!

Thank you for your video! Like others here, I received an acceptance letter, and was suspicious about this "Association". There are everywhere on LinkedIn (even though they say they have only few opening opportunities LOL). We definitely should report massively their account so no one would have to deal with their scam, especially young writers who might be discouraged.

I got a similar email and am so glad I saw your video before doing anything else. Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I received same mail and I'm glad i didn't fall for it. You just got a new subscriber! 🙂

Thanks so much for confirming my suspicions. I got an acceptance email today and thought it was for a different writing job I applied for. The email was rather generic, with a bit of an AI tone to it. I decided to click on the link and that's when I saw the registration page. Instead of filling out the form, I did more digging. Glad I did and thank you again!

Thank you for spreading this scam awareness! I also received an email from an unknown person idk and then later pasted a link that sent me to the IAPWE website which I don't remember applying for it? Again, thank you for reviewing it!

OMG! You saved me! Thank you for sharing this video. I was about to enter my PayPal information!

my mom used to say "nothing is free in this life" , another case of "mom,you're right" . Thanks Zulie for saving my mental peace.

Thanks!! I was just learning about them and was pretty clouse to be scammed by them. When they asked permission for my paypal i was not having it then I found ur video. Thanks a lot! Just got subscribed to you!

I just recieved the mail. The thing is that I don’t even remember having applying to it! But thanks. I’ve been reading a lot about it, and that’s the way I got into your video. Makes sense. Thanks for the warning!

Thankfully I watch this video before subscribe their membership through the "acceptance" email! Thank you for sharing!

Hey...thanks for the review. It came to me at the right time

Thank you for sharing! I was on the point of paying for the membership and then I came across your video which saved me a lot of trouble. Thanks a million!!!

I saw these guys posting incessantly on Craigslist and wondered what was up. Thanks for providing this review.

They have ads all over Craigslist. They have the same ad listed 20 times. Totally lame. I’m so glad I found this video. Thank you Julie!!!

Thank you for this video,. I just received an email from them and went ahead to investigate before clicking the link they provided.

Many thanks, Zulie. I received today an email from them and happened the same as you said. Thanks.

Thank you soo much Zulie. I just got this email. I was suspicious of this, tried to fill the form without signing to their membership. I get a thought to check and search for this is genuinely a job or membership. This broke my heart 😢but I just got relief

Thank you - I just received an email from them and almost signed up but am happy I didn't thanks to you!

I can't thank you enough for making this video!

Your video is so helpful for beware from scammers.Continus you drop this like information.

Thanku miss zulie you and my sister save me from these scamers

Soon as I saw the logo I got bad vibes. Decided to google it, found the usual scam concerns, and then found your video. Glad I looked into and avoided it, thank you!

Thank you for doing this. Like many others here I applied and was "accepted", also got a weird feeling about it so I looked into it and what do you know...

Found you because I just received one of these emails. I don't remember applying to them at all I've seen so many of their ads on LinkedIn I assumed it was sketchy. The big red flag on my email was the time pressure intended to create a sense of urgency: "The opening for the current enrollment period will close by the end of this week. Our last enrollment period was approximately 10 months ago and we do not know when the next open enrollment period will be."

Zulie, Thank you for saving me time, money, and frustration.

Thank you for sharing, I just got there email and things didn't feel normal to me. I googled them and here I am! Thanks ma'am

Thank you for taking your time to sharing your experience.

Thank you so much for sharing, I was about to sign up for a "free" membership. Thank god I found your video first 😅

Thanks for sharing. Initially I was very excited when I saw the email from them. Fortunately I didn't submit an application.

Thanks for this they just emailed me to join a membership, i had no luck with up work in the past either they had scammers keep hitting me up not sure why people ask you to pay for them as well. But thanks again

good, thanks for sharing, we gotta stop these scams

I want to thank you for this review that has turned out to be angelic intervention as I just received their approval email this evening. I thank my star for coming across this before falling prey to organized cyber criminals.
