STOP! 100% DATA SCRAPING SCAM! DO NOT CONNECT YOUR GMAIL! They hide the fine print and scrape ALL of your contacts and uses your identity to invite people to join their scam. All of the positive reviews are botted. DO NOT CONNECT YOUR GMAIL

Be careful. They automatically send emails to people in your contacts. You have to agree to this during signup, and it's in the fine print. And when others recommend you, they also suggest paying some fee for their recommendation. This company has really bad practices in advertising and making money.

Misleading signup process. DO NOT connect your Google account IT WILL EMAIL EVERYONE!!! I received an email saying my girlfriend had asked me to write her a recommendation. I was in a rush and wanted to help her, so I followed the link and connected my Google account. What I did not realize was that the process would result in recommendation requests being queued to people in my own contacts. I had absolutely no intention of asking anyone for recommendations, I was only there to write one for my girlfriend. Thankfully, I noticed the pending invitations before they were sent, cancelled them, disconnected Gainrep from my Google account, and deleted my Gainrep account. My girlfriend also told me she never intentionally sent the original request to me, and other people she knows received similar emails. I understand that permissions may technically be presented during signup, but the consequence was not clear to me while going through the process. Connecting an account to recommend someone should not leave a user surprised to discover that emails to their own contacts have been queued. I found the experience extremely misleading and would strongly caution anyone to read every permission carefully before connecting their Google account.

It's blasts your contacts without your consent

This is a scam designed to scrape your contacts and spam them

It’s a phishing site that illegally accesses your google contacts and uses you to gain access to people and continues the cycle of phishing

It is a SCAM! Be careful. I received an email from Gainrep on behalf of a contractor I know and have used (I asked later and he never requested me, or anyone to be emailed and had not heard of Gainrep). I submitted a review for him, and Gainrep preceeded to EMAIL EVERY ONE OF MY CONTACTS. If you recieve an email from them, MARK AS SPAM AND DELETE. I should not have fallen for this but I did.

Horrible experience. I received an invite from a professional contact in Kenya to recommend me, I did this, then all of my contacts got email to recommend me. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM!
