It is up to you to ask for a copy of any contract you sign before you sign it. It is extremely important for any person who signs a contract to be proactive. You need that copy for your own records. The contract states the rights and obligations of both parties under the agreement. You need a copy to monitor those rights and obligations. If the other party refuses or is reluctant to provide a copy, with signatures, then you should take that as a signal that you are not doing business with a legitimate party. There are many, many cases brought to court where one party was not given a copy of the contract they signed.
