Can I receive and pay for the order myself to avoid a ban for ineffective applications?

Question

Upwork

On Upwork, newbies get a ban for ineffective applications, if for a month you didn’t get a job on any of the 30 applications left.
But what if, hypothetically, to make it easier at first, register a customer account and post a vacancy, and hire yourself to complete it?
Can I verify that the customer's account was created by the same person? Do they check the customer's ID?
Will it be possible in such a case for a newcomer to avoid a subsequent ban for ineffective applications?

Answer 1

That's why? Don't go anywhere, write normal cover letters, and work normally.
It seems to me that these machinations will not end well for you.

Answer 2

Firstly, they don’t ban for a month, so the Newbie either understands how to work or is a fool and will invent your ways
. Cheating orders is also punishable by an eternal ban

Answer 3

That's probably how they do it, I've seen a lot of them. Even there are suspicions of money laundering (see quite dirty times 25% are ready to lose). But from what I suspect, they usually do it there with $ 1000, $ 2000, dudes from Latin America) the portfolio is terrible, and for a month 7-10k orders, and the reviews are just like that (that's honestly straight like that!), as if the freelancer personally went to the house and I took it with a swallow))
I had an extra $ 1.5k, I would have fired 2 orders of 750 at the start. But not in a row, usually after the closing of large sums you are recommended and there is no end to invites, then it subsides. But still, the upwork should be considered as a basket for collecting orders, and the main hype should come from beehans, dribble, YouTube, various stocks, other sites (I described it for the graph designer)
Regarding the problem of overflying orders: with a zero profile, it is very difficult to find orders. It is possible to sit a shaman over carpets and a profile for 2 months. It's OK. I was also in the bath for inactivity - no big deal. He could also bid, as always, but he was not in the recommendations and search results. Of course, it is difficult to return, but then everything goes fine.
And on the main issue - not to sleep is very, very difficult. fingerprints, cookies, webrtc, wifi, vpns, virtual machines are a chore, but where is it more troublesome to open left accounts and get money there. even xs is it possible, they don’t seem to accept crypto. It's easier, of course, to ask a friend-uncle-aunt with his IP to ask. Of course, I think it is more desirable that he/she be/a from another city. Although, formally, if there is a large amount from your city to a zero profile, you can only be checked through a video interview by the security department and that's all.
