I like freelancer's milestone system of "they deposit the money into a milestone system and the site has their money. The milestone can then be worked on and the freelancer can request payment of the milestone when the job is done"

If people run away they've lost all the money and you can generally still claim it by the dispute system.

Too bad freelancer is a pile of garbage in every single other way and you should never ever ever go there.

Elance does blow heartily but also has an escrow system to protect people in the same way. And if they bail, you get paid after 30 days if they don't dispute it .
