“Banned by Fiverr!”
“Banned by Fiverr!”
You were banned from Fiverr because…
You tried to contact a Fiverr buyer outside the Fiverr messaging system, presumably to cut your own deal. Some folks, Internet marketers in particular, think this is no biggie. Just put your contact information in a deliverable, like a document or video, they say. Who’s going to notice? What’s the harm? Look up. That rapidly-descending object is the ban hammer.
You tried to harvest buyers’ email addresses by making them go to a sign-in page to collect the digital product they bought. Naughty, naughty. There are IM so-called gurus actually getting paid to dispense this “advice.” Once a disgruntled buyer reports you, it’s ban city. And you’ll have to wait up to six months to get your Fiverr balance. Yeah, we can’t figure out why anyone wouldn’t want to get your sleazy emails seven days a week, either.
You were banned once already and came back by creating a new account. Some intrepid souls put up the same gigs again. Others come in via a known proxy. Didn’t your mama teach you anything? Were you one of those tykes who didn’t believe her and touched the burner anyway?
You posted porn or sexually deviant gigs. Be sure to use “boobs” as a tag. Also, “I will cheer you up” when accompanied by a bikini photo is code for “Hey mister, wanna see my naked body doing raunchy things?” Some people have sold hundreds of these gigs. Maybe you won’t get caught…
You were caught selling someone else’s copyrighted material. Word to the wise (which, granted, you’re not if you’re trying to do this): an article, blog, book, ebook, etc. does not have to have the copyright statement on it to be copyrighted.
You signed up for a new Fiverr account using the same PayPal address that was linked to a banned account. It takes a special brand of stoopid to use this approach, but some people are real innovators.
You ordered a gig on Fiverr to promote your new Fiverr clone microjobs site. If this was you, you should probably have adult supervision around sharp objects.
