Client asking for email in google doc interview form

[niang07]

Client ask me during chat interview to fill up an initial interview form with required email field to be populate. The other questions in the google doc form looks like a legit interview question. The client has a great review and $9k spent though. I know sharing of contact info is against TOS but I'm looking for advice on how to handle this kind of situation, I believe he is not trying to scam but client does not know/forgot that sharing contact info w/o contract is against the rule.

Thanks in advance!

Fill in the email address but send a note specifying:

"I have provided my email address but it is not to be used for communication purposes prior to an official Upwork contract being in place."

I wouldn't even do that.  Just tell them that when you are required, you will provide that information.  Those questionnaires are forms that stay around forever without being re-written and updated.

Just provide all your information in Upwork via attachments going out to a Google form is not suitable for me when Upwork is providing all comforts within the message box.
