Hi Chris.

I had already deal with 3 clients who were banned later. 

The best way to tackle this situation is to, Keep the client de-activation in notice of Upwork Support. Because If you don't inform them. They will consider that you are also involved in fraudulent activity if the client is declared a spammer.

My Profile was once De-activated due to this reason, what's why be care full in this situation and check the client staus before making any deal
