Upfront payment bank transfer?

Posted by David Novak, on
Just got a quote from a tradesman regarding a job I’ve advertised. They’ve asked for an upfront payment via bank transfer. I’ve never heard or come across anyone asking for money before they’ve come to see the job or met the customer. Any thoughts?
