Glad I googled their opening line and found this site. I was ready to receive an upfront payment before working, and he mentioned a partner paying by check and needed my address and name to write on the check because of financial problems. FLAG! Telling him to "F" off and stop wasting hard working peoples time!

I got the exact same email. Not sure why they are sending the same one out to everyone. Wont they be getting the same exact logos with the same name? Also, I figured Venmo would be more efficient. I think they got ahold of me through the adobe portfolio website. I will not be responding to them anymore.

Just got this email as well. As soon as I saw him saying something about a check, I googled it and found all of you. Really bummed out about that 400-800 dollars I won't get /sigh

Damn they got me on this one. I got the same exact email from "Thomas". I also got another version from a girl named "Amy Laurence" wanting a logo for her salon. Same MO, wanting to pay with check etc. I did give Thomas my address, I hope I didnt screw myself to bad.

Same email word for word June 2021..sort of a bummer that it's a big fat scam but glad everyone shared otherwise I would have fallen for it.

I asked to zoom chat, I wrote up a contract all of that was not acknowledged in their response back which was the same email everyone else has been getting.

I just received the same email.
Funny thing is I found it in my spam folder to begin with.
I think I'm gonna have some fun with this one because I've been almost scammed before so its deserved. What gave it away for me was them bringing their associate into it, its like bro, just pay me for my art, who cares from who.
As a graphic designer I've been applying for jobs like crazy and I get through the interview and to the "skill assessment" then they don't hire me... its like bruh, am I really that bad or do yall just want free work? I did a whole display ads set for this company, like ok. AND no critique! Even after I asked for one.

TLDR; [censored]scammers

I actually received a check!

Were you able to cash it though?

Wow I really thought it was legit at first but then the second email (pictured) made me want to do some research.

This same exact thing happened to me.
The person. contacted me through my graphic design website via email. He asked for a logo design and I quoted him at $300. He said be on the lookout for a check. Then a different person contact me and said hes out of the country but he mixed up the check and he put the cost of the logo and the printer cost on the same check and asked if once the check was deposited if I would mind using google pay to forward the other half to the printer once the check cleared and wanted confirmation once I forwarded the rest of the check. He contacted me through text. Once the check cleared I forwarded the money to a different email for the printer and then he canceled the check and kept the $2000 that I sent him.

Heres the first email: Thank you for your quick response. I established an Auto Parts & Supplies shop soon and I need a very good logo to be created with the business name which is (Zee Auto Parts Shop) let me know how much you charge per Logo. I have an example of what I want you to do, But the example doesn't have my own company name, I believe that the example of the job will make it easier and faster for you to know what to do on time. Our contact : The Youngstown warren showroom 5100 Market Street Youngstown, Ohio 44512 [email protected] My budget is under $400 to $800. About us: We established in November of 2020, Zee Auto Parts has been primarily serving the professional installers with the very best automotive parts available. Nearly anything the national chains offer, we can sell the end user for less. We are locally owned, so the profits earned are redistributed throughout the community.Timeline to get this logo project done should be under 2 to 3 weeks, it depends on you. My associate will be making the payment available to you through the check that will be sent to you. After you received the check and cashed it, you can start working on the logo. Please let me know if you have any questions, You just have to understand that my business associate is handling payment methods through check this time around due to the system hacking problem they're facing right now., That's why you have to send me your details now. they'll make the check available as soon as possible. Your Name, Address, City, State, Zip code, Phone number is needed,

Heres second: Hello Jenna, The associate just sent me an email regarding payment of your logo fee, There was a mix up from him. Though the payment to support our new company was due to his absence from the ceremony based on a business trip to Europe with the payment for 2 other partners (printing material supplier and printer) which I specifically sent their names and addresses. Instead of him getting separate payment, he wrote both amounts on a single check with your name written on it and already sent to you. I replied to his mail telling him that both the logo designer and printing material supplier and printer are two separate people. He said he's already out of the state on a one month business trip to Europe and there is nothing he can do about it. He suggests that you take the check to the bank when it arrives and cash it. It's an instant cash at any bank, deduct your fee for the logo and give the rest to the printing material supplier. Truly, I know it's not part of your logo service but as things stand now. Only your assistant and support is needed. Please don't let our dream and aspiration of a memorable new company skip us by. Please assist on this and we will forever be grateful.

As a freelance graphic designer, I got the same e-mail as well. Beware of this scammer. Why would they ask for my check and address when I normally make clients do the deposits first?

The e-mail:

Exact same email. I hope anyone receiving this garbage does their research. I responded with a "colorful" email regarding what they're trying to pull on us starving artists. SMH

Started with "Kate" contacting me through my portfolio website form with this message (from email address [email protected]):

Please kindly let me know if you're available to create a logo that will become the image of my business, passion and vision. We're opening a new business soon. I await your response soon.
Thank you

I then responded for more details and got the same form emails that are shown here for Zee Auto Parts.

I got the same email, but instead of the name Thomas, now it's Kate. The email is [email protected], so they probably have multiple emails, but I'm thankful that I looked them up.

I just got that exact email! It sounded pretty sketchy but i wanted to believe it was real! Thankfully all I had to do was type the company's name in on Google and this page popped up immediately! Im so thankful I didn't waist any of my time thinking about this client! I just hope no one else buys this crappy email scam.

I also got this same exact email from the same exact email/person. I had some back-and-forth correspondence with him and all the emails besides the original had awful spelling and grammar mistakes. And he kept wanting my info so he could send a "check". Thank god I looked this company up. Totally a scam.

Wow I'm so glad I checked before agreeing to anything, or sending any personal information. I also got a similar email word for word. I was afraid they were trying to rip another company's logo off when they sent a logo example, but instead I found these. I've been trying to get my graphic designs clients up, so I was excited, but now I'm just thankful I dodged a bullet. Appreciate this info from everyone!
