Hi all,
a client requests a payment from me to do a job, he called that the premium ID cost, is that normal to request payment to work?
It will be refunded back after I complete the assignment.
Many thanks in advance

Hi Emilie,
following your earlier post this morning, did you read the informations provided to you?
Chances are you were probably asked to communicate outside of Upwork?
The situation you are facing right now is a scam. A real client will never ask you to pay something. Stop communicating with them amd report them.
My first advice would be to stop applying to jobs for now. You are not ready to use the platform properly, which will lead you in a bad situation.
