No. This is a scam. You should never have to pay any client to take a job. Clients pay you. And you should never accept or send ANY kind of payment off of Upwork. Report the client.

Hi Wint, 


Amanda is correct. It's a violation for clients to ask freelancers to pay for work. 

I'll go ahead and look into this and will forward it to the team for their further review. In the meantime, 

I highly recommend that you read up on the "Safety First!" section of the freelancer resources we have compiled, and these tips for avoiding questionable jobs for more information about working safely through Upwork.

Hello,

I also encountered that. It is also my first time here at Upwork. Fortunately, I saw this post thank you so much.

Hi,

Luckily i saw this post. The client demanded a deposit of $150 before starting the project but I flatly refused.

Type of client: 1 job post, recently created account, unverified payment method

 

Thank you
