FYI BEWARE OF STATUE RECORDS...SCAM

<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

We got an e-mail from them on our mp3unsigned.com page and this is what it said…

Regarding the materials on your web site.

I am interested in the materials on your site. Statue is a major independent record company and would like to discuss the possibility of releasing this material and doing some radio promotion on it.

If your record is available for licensing and distribution please contact me at your earliest opportunity.

Best Regards,

Warren Ryan
Manager A&R Operations

Thank You SanGia



This is a well known spam letter and most artists here are aware of it
but it's always best to keep ahead of those particular games. Well done
for thinking of your fellow artists [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img]

Thanks I had just posted something similar a minute ago but have since
deleted it after spying your thread. I also got this email from
the same person. Think it's shocking to prey upon people like
that. It is quite exciting to get a mail like that. Thank
god I looked into it a bit more before acting on it. <!--

I also think this should be made a sticky on this site.<!--

I got my third Statue email today. I've therefore replied with the following message:



<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">


This is the third email from Statue records that I have received to date, despite my previous (unacknowledged and apparently unheeded) emails to you, which clearly stated my current legal position, and explicit wish to be removed from your mailing list due to a) contractual obligations


b) what I perceive to be harassment / spam


I have therefore taken the step of notifying my solicitors (Foy and Company), and forwarded this email and other correspondence to them.


If you wish to avoid costly legal action within the future, I once again urge you to remove my address from your mailing list, and not contact myself or 'The Delivery System' in regard to so-called 'recording contracts' on any future occasion.


This is your last warning, all future correspondence shall be undertaken by my solicitors


</BLOCKQUOTE>
It's all nonsense, smoke and mirrors. But hopefully it will scare the twats into taking me off their list [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]
