"my father died"... ok, but the money was supposed to be in your credit card anyway, and your father is not the holder...

"my kids need to eat"... yeah, mine too, and i was supposed to be paid by you to do so!

"the bank stopped my payment"... that's a no way possible... even in Bengladesh, the banks are not blocking you just because you pay someone else... that's where they do profits.

"my partners are unsure of your work and will not pay you right away"... ok, that's not of my business if you can't be solid in front of your partners... i deal with you and you only...

etc... there is so much possible situations where we, coders, get scammed... hopefully, we can release our stuff in other means if the work was interesting anyway.

I had a case like that some months ago (claimed that they did not have enough money to pay the bills ) and it was very annoying to listen to all their whining and excuses when the the time came to pay me for the work I did. They should think about it before they hire someone to work on their sites and not after.
