Need advice: Potential Fiverr client keeps asking for work before payment — red flag or normal?

I’m building my Fiverr profile and got approached by a client for a music portfolio website project.

Project scope is pretty detailed:

  • Custom website design
  • React/Next.js build
  • Responsive pages
  • SoundCloud embeds
  • SEO/meta setup
  • Social integrations
  • Deployment possibly needed

He initially said his budget was $20. I negotiated to $25 as a discounted one-time collaboration since I’m trying to build portfolio/reviews.

Here’s where it got weird:

He kept asking me to “show some progress first” before placing an order so he could see my quality.

I told him I don’t start project-specific work before payment, but offered to share previous work samples.

Then he said he wants to place the order, but also said something like:

“Send me the $25 offer and if the project is not complete I’m not accepting delivery till I’m satisfied okay”

That wording feels concerning because “satisfied” is vague, especially for a discounted project with a clearly limited scope.

I’ve already told him the offer would include limited revisions and fixed scope.

Am I overthinking this, or does this sound like the kind of client who may keep pushing boundaries / asking for endless revisions?

For people experienced on Fiverr:
Would you take this for portfolio-building, or walk away?

And for anyone wondering my minimum budget is around $80 for portfolio building.

I’ve already consulted a couple of dermatologists/clinics, followed the prescribed treatments properly, but nothing has really worked long-term. Either the acne comes back or my skin gets irritated because it’s quite sensitive.

Looking for dermatologists in Hyderabad who:

  • actually take time to understand the root cause
  • don’t just push expensive procedures/packages
  • are good with acne-prone sensitive skin
  • prescribe practical treatments that actually work

Would really appreciate recommendations based on your personal experience (doctor name + clinic location if possible).

Also if anyone dealt with persistent acne in Hyderabad and finally found something that worked, please share your experience.
