Tell them that they can send the contract. It's not binding either way.

If you already have the contract. Tell them back that you need a few days to check your notice period and paperwork. It's just not possible to move that fast. (How the hell did they even made up a contract and a background check before they get the information?)

The more you go up the chain. The more exclusive (i.e. no other people in the entire city for this position) and the longer the negotiation might be (you're hell not leaving your place at the snap of a finger from a 20 year old HR person who's bullshitting you).

P.S. EVERY ONE gets more than one day to decide. Don't expect people to be available on phone or email whenever you want.
