What to say about it? Just scam, or half scam! Cannot tell you anything else. It's a copy of freelancer.com which I also have bad experience but well.
Truelancer works like that, all the profiles are at least 98% fake, this is a company behind that works like a freelancer platform but ridiculous. I think they could finish a job, but haven't decided to stop because I've got very same writing from different people, same wording and so on. The first person offers $1.500, when I started talking and let them hung a while, another came in with a lower price.and so on a few. I started questioning the so-called freelancer, but the replies were copy and paste literally. I just spent 10$ and it's ok.
Bombarding of emails after purchase with so-called offers, see.

I publish a five figures project, I made the payment with paypal and freelance cash their percentage, the guy who accept the project wasn't able to finish. Well at the end, after a short discussion I paid 0$ to the freelancer, I found out that he didn't had the expertise he listed, well. I ask freelancer.com to refund the entire amount, they refund me the money to paypal, 3 1/2 weeks later. They refuse to send me the whole amount, they took a big bite from the amount because I post the project on the site, and that has a cost, the percentage was gone, project wasn't finish. A complete waste of time. And I'm paying a Lawyer in Sidney now to sue them, if that fails I will speak with the locals. I will personally enter in their offices and offer them a bunch of flowers.
Customer services replied here below, but this is just to say hello! This hasnt been solved.
I mean, as the website rulers sees a project completed and they resolve in favour of the freelancer, this is a good thing but not when lots of $$$ are involved. The delivered quality was extrem below anything reasonable. I don't asking for Gucci quality by paying bananas, that's for sure. Well I'm not the only one.

Tip for consumers:
look for another similar site. There are a lots of people who lost their money as the website sees a project completed and they resolve in favour of the freelancer. This behaviour is good but not when lots of $$ are involved.
