If you had followed Upwork's rule that says you're not allowed to communicate off the platform before a contract is awarded, then you wouldn't have wasted your time with this. You can use the "flag as inappropriate" link at the top-right of the project post to report the client, although somebody else probably already did this as soon as they received a ridiculous message like, "We want to make the interview session as convenient as possible because we have discovered that most of our time zones are different" (the time zone will still be different if you use Skype!).

Not if you use magic skype, which makes all time zones the same, and all checks valid, and all computer equipment arriving on time.
We tend to think that scammers say nonsensical things because they lack language skills or intelligence, but this might be a test. Any person willing to overlook nonsense like this has revealed themselves as a good mark. But maybe I'm giving scammers too much credit. Or maybe it's a combination of all three.
