So, I posted up some of my digital print artwork that I have up on Redbubble to Pinterest, thinking maybe it might stir up some interest. I did get some repined action and earned some followers on my Pinterest account.
I get an email from Lindsey Richard. She owns a Craft retail firm in the Philippines. She wants to buy 76 pieces - 12 each of 6 different prints. Well, nothing ventured nothing gained. I look around and finally get a quote to pass back to her. Finding a quote was an interesting endeavor in itself, one lady after receiving the information sends me back a quote for half of a frame. Redbubble isn't interested. A couple of others don't respond. I finally find a really professional guy who gives me a quote:
Fred Goldstein
Castelli Art Framing
6056 Jefferson Blvd.
Los Angeles, California 90016
310-204-6830 (office)
310-666-4190 (cell)- Good guy, if you ever need anything like this.
So I send her back a quote $13,000.00. She balks, says her daily limit on her credit card can't do that. She wants to pay by Credit Card.
I write back and say I have to be paid by Cashier's Check or no go. I give her a new quote for 18 pieces at $3,300.00. Or I can sell her the prints by themselves and she can frame them there, saves oodles on freight.

Lindsey,
I'm sorry, but I need a cashier's check. I also need the shipping information: address etc. for confirmation of the freight cost.
Thanks

Lindsey,
If you are experienced retailer, you can understand my request. I have no relationship with you, no credit information, I don't even have an address. If you are interested in continuing on with this deal, please provide me with the freight address so I can confirm the cost and send me the cashier's check. Other wise, I'm not interested.

I get another long email about what I need to do and she will send me her Credit Card information.
So I Google her. She's been scamming people for a while, folks take her Credit Card, they ship and then the card is later declined or reversed because of lack of available credit or its a stolen card.
I sent her this:

She replies:
Not me, may be someone is using our name
I told her I was posting this up with her name on it and asked if she wanted to send me a picture to post with it. Haven't heard from her

She also use a US address
Adeyemi/Bems Prime transport
145-30 156th st. Jamaica, New York 11434
which is a transportation company ( I guess she is using to ship out of US.)
Please be aware of the address and phone number 8773922848 as well.
It may a spam
This is so obviously a scam . I received an email today from these people. Don't waste anymore time with these people
