Okay, so I
sort of broke this rule but I only gave you a glimpse at what I’ve earned so
far. At no point did I let you know how much I had in the Fiverr bank this
month—or what was left available for withdrawal.
It’s really
important NOT TO SHARE your exact Fiverr income.
But why,
especially when you want to make it clear that it’s not a scam?
Opening Yourself Up to Hackers
When you
share your exact Fiverr income, you’re telling people how much you have
available for withdrawal—or how much will be there within 14 days. It opens you
up to being hacked.
People are
always looking for easy ways to get their hands on money and one of those is to
hack into accounts where sellers make money and then have to wait to withdraw
it; or choose to wait until it reaches a certain amount each time.
It’s not
just on Fiverr either. You need to watch out for this anywhere.
By sharing
your username and exact Fiverr income, you’re telling people:”look at me, look
at how much I make”. Others don’t want to do the hard work that you’ve put in
so they’ll get your money instead.
But How Do You Prove Fiverr Isn’t a Scam
Like me, you
may have something that you want to sell. You may want to promote an eBook or a
subscription service to help people make more money on Fiverr.
One
affiliate marketing trick is to share exact income to show people the
opportunity is legitimate. How do you do that with Fiverr if you can’t share
your exact Fiverr income?
Well, no
affiliate marketer actually shares their full income. They’ll show you how much
they’ve made in the past but chances are that money isn’t sitting in their
PayPal account or whatever account they showed anymore. That’s the trick to use
with Fiverr. Don’t share the money that you have coming in from withdrawals.
Don’t show the money you’ve made this month.
Show the
amount that you’ve made since becoming a Fiverr seller. This is a general
amount. I did show how much I’ve withdrawn but how much have I spent on gigs to
help my business? That you will never know!
Be careful
online. There are a lot of unscrupulous people looking to steal your money. If
you share your exact Fiverr income, chances are you’ll find your account
hacked. Check out the Fiverr Forums for the amount of people who have been
hacked in the past…it really does happen. Do you want to lose hundreds, maybe
thousands, of dollars?
