Hello,

For the last few weeks I have been seeing a strange connection between 'poor English' and being a scam or unprofessional.

Why do, mainly English natives from the UK and US) make fun of LPS's and assume that they are scammers or unprofessionals when their English is not perfect?
How do they have to communicate with international customers and freelancers or aren't they allowed to run a translation business?
