Fashion Design SCAM!
I got this email (below) a few days ago and wanted to make sure all fashion designers are aware of this SCAM. After some research, it sounds like this has gone around to photographers and then models and now they are targeting fashion designers. I thought it sounded to good to be true, but wrote back with some questions just in case it was legitimate. After I still couldn’t get any specific details on the job, I did some deeper digging and found out about the scam…
What’s that saying? If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is?
Please make sure any fashion designers, models and photographers you know are aware of this!
