Delving into the great job of freelancing

https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01bf5b668556e37a2b

I have now officially started and have built up my skills enough to be confident to change from aspiring Graphic Artist to the title "Freelance Graphic Artist" I have the website to prove it. After quite a few years of being a stay-at-home mom/homemaker I can now say I am transitioning into a work-at-home mom. There were a few bumps in the road this past week as I almost fell victim to a work-at-home Graphic Designer scam/hoax. I want to let everyone know to protect your personal information with your life. I am happy it didn't catch me in a financial bind.
I had my suspicions but now that I found an article on indeed dot com I am now confident this was the same someone from across the world was trying to play me for a fool. I asked some techie geniuses I know along with some graphic designer friends as well. I am so thankful for my family too. Especially my husband, what a life-saver. I kept trying to find information on the company itself, it is currently and has been a legitimate company for some time that I forgot to look into the "interviewer" aka con woman (I can't call her an artist because that is giving her too much credit).
I simply chalk it up as a lesson learned, sad that this world can be so cruel sometimes but all you have to do sometimes is to protect "you and yours" and that is what I did in the end.
Well I hope I've helped, if you need any Graphic Designing done for your business or personal needs don't be a stranger and leave a comment or email me.
May you be blessed and until next time.
