It's not just the people requesting the work being done that are getting scammed. A few months ago I spent 3 hours sorting out someone's database after quoting a very cheap price. I did the work and haven't heard from the guy since.
I think that's why some coders want at least some cash up front before doing the work. Why should the coder trust the client if the client doesn't trust the coder?

Thats True, In fact, coming to think about it what guarantee's does a coder have that he'll get paid??? at all.
The only alternative is using an escrow service and paying a bit extra to get a 3rd party involved
But thats gonna make the whole concept of coder / client
into a more expensive mode.
Send them their code via a password protected zip file, when the coder get paid, they get the password??
