Off The Hook

🚨 Scam Warning 🚨

I want to share something important with you all. Recently, someone messaged me pretending to be interested in ordering hats. Very quickly, they asked for my PayPal information (which I don’t even use) and became very pushy that I check my emails for confirmation immediately. When I checked their Fabcebook profile, it had only been created a day earlier. Clearly, this was a scam attempt. I called their bluff and was blocked instantly. This is an example of things that can hurt small businesses as we are easy targets. I sniffed them out, and saved myself before I was badly burned.

This goes both ways. Please know I work in honesty, and while I may ask for a deposit on large projects, I will never ask you to send me full payment prior to project completion. This means you have a photograph of your product and we have discussed shipping options and anticipated costs for shipping. I only accept EMT (or cash upon local delivery) and will never ask for your PayPal or credit card information.

Reminder to please be careful:

❌ Don’t give out banking or PayPal details to random accounts.
❌ Always check profiles for red flags (newly made, no real content, strange behavior).
✅ If you ever feel unsure, trust your gut and double-check before sending money.

I love creating for this community, and I don’t want to see anyone taken advantage of. Stay safe and thank you for supporting small businesses like mine! 💜
