Victim Location 98908

Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order

They say they "love your music" and how you have "something very special going on."

They direct you to something called "The Akademia." There things look professional, but it still seems as if it’s a scam none-the-less. Artists will submit their work with fees, for what? I’m not entirely sure I want to find out.

Anyways, this is very, very sketchy. Take a look at it, make your own assumptions. (I’ll leave you a link to all of his crap.)

– Goes by "jay" by the way, not capitalized, very unusual for "professional" Radio Stations.

I found this Reddit post, it seems to be the same guy arguing that he’s not a scammer:

Anyways, thanks for the help. To me, I see a huge scam. And if artists aren’t aware of their copyright laws, pirating, and scams they can easily fall for something like this.
