This very unfortunate chain of events plays out regularly in a freelancer's life i have had such clients, and still get pretensious enguiries with demands of one or othe exotic sort, but the bullshit vanishes when you demand upfront deposit or expense account to allow for this kind of risk

Did you know that if someone pays you via PayPal for a service, you are not protected by them in anyway? Read this cautionary tale and beware.
