Another Wolf on the Prowl


Have you received something from a (perhaps bogus) magazine company like this one???


**Bogus Art Magazine Scam**
**Bogus Art Magazine Scam**


I call it the: give me your hard earned money for the dim prospect of being 'featured' in my bogus, non-circulated magazine scam! (acronym to come later):

Just got this e-mail today, enter at your own risk I say; first thing I said to my Nephew sitting next to me before opening it, I said "How much will this cost me? (lol) and if it's more than one penny I'm out:)".  Well if your in, then be my guest an accept this invite in my stead  But $35 to enter a contest to get published in a poorly designed, and lowly published farce then I guess, go ahead and waste your money; but I say it ends here, are you with me???

It's how they make their money, not by helping the arts or artist, but through the entry fees to the contest and who knows what the 2nd tier of their con is?...it sure won't be me finding out;) Pass it on!!!


If you see this e-mail or one like it, then you are being preyed upon!
