Upwork locked my account asking for KYC.
I Have 3 contracts open but I am not interested to submit my info due to privacy concerns. I was thinking on contacting them to ask for my account back without submitting KYC but I am pretty sure they won't let me.
 
There is no other way than the submit KYC. Only one option is complete KYC.
 
I wonder how you got those 3 jobs if you are not KYC verified
 
If you're legit doing your work honestly, what's the issue in doing KYC?

I was hiring I am not working as freelance.
I wanted to develop a tg bot but once I sent the tg channel I want to develop my bot on I got instant restricted

I am wondering how you got three contracts without verification. If Upwork asked you to submit KYC and blocked your profile, then you have to complete the KYC. I understand your privacy concern, but this is a strict Upwork rule.
What if you continue working on open contracts and at payment time Upwork locks your account again? That will be a big problem. I suggest you complete the KYC to avoid future issues.
