Another Dumb T-Shirt Scammer
OMG I can’t believe it, it’s only been a few days of returning to t-shirt blogging and I’m already getting more scam emails.
I can always tell because they never own a domain, always contact me from a free email address, have insane names and usually ask for 10,000 of my finest t-shirts or even worse blank ones.
I’ve had a few so far this week, scam emails, but this one really made me laugh and I thought I’d share it with you…
Hello,
I start with much Greetings to you and your whole company, my Name is Mr. Elvis Brown and I am the owner of ElvisSportClub Yard in New Jersey with regards on certain references I came across your contact having notice that you can supply me with Blank T-Shirts and as such I urgently need this Blank T-Shirts for my SportClub, I would be glad to receive your response including the list of the Blank T-Shirts that you stock, then I will reply with the details of my order.
Regards,
Mr. Elvis Brown
Just to make sure there are no more scam emails this week, either from Elvis, A Trading Post in Western Sahara, a plethora of Nigerian scam merchants, The Christian Churches of India, Shirtdex Industries of China, and any other fictional multi-conglomerates, associations or charitable organisations who want to make me rich, here are the facts.
- I don’t print t-shirts.
- I sell some t-shirts through Spreadshirt, Cafepress, Redbubble and Zazzle but I don’t own my own store.
- I definitely don’t sell blank t-shirts.
- I don’t ship thousands of tees without the cash up front and even then I’d probably have to track down a local printer to handle the order.
Okay back to my weekend, but just one more point to T. Mulwalla of Nigeria, listen mate, 99% of the t-shirts at this blog are designed by other designers, this is a t-shirt reviews blog you see, if I’d created every t-shirt you see at Buy-Tees.net I’d be a very rich, very old, very tired man. Okay perhaps the last two might apply the way I’m feeling today; I woke up at 7am to meet a courier with a bunch of Singapore orchids for Chris (it’s her birthday today, so your wishes are welcome ;), and then I cooked her breakfast, tidied up the wrapping paper after her blitz on her presents, and then I got on with my latest artwork, whilst feeding three cats, rubbing my gf’s feet, cleaning the kitchen, and answering crazy emails. Roll on next weekend :p

I see that you are using Spreadshirt, cafepress, Redbubble, and Zazzle to do your printing and I thought you might want to check out BlueCotton.com. We are a competitor to these companies, but if you would like to try us out we offer everything these others do, but we also have an award winning design studio that make creating a custom t-shirt very easy. Just thought I would give you another option.
