Once I said a client, who was not responding for two weeks, that I would charge him $x.xx if he didn't reply me in xx:xx times. He reported it as a threat immediately, and my Upwork account was down the very next day.
Just a coder and a dad. I love my family and I love to code!!!! started coding at 11, so I have 25 years under my belt. Still love learning about it every day. Black lives matter!
I'm sorry to hear that. I am sure that will happen, but if you use a platform you have to keep those things in mind. I haven't ever used a platform, so I was not in risk of having it shutdown. It's sad that people can be spiteful.
When it comes to a platform, things get out of the control. Most of the platforms value investors, clients for us, rather than freelancers. It is always risky. It also hurts freelancer's reputation.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
