Dear Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your website about scammers who target artists. This was a first for me. I got an email about an art card order. At first delighted, it seemed a bit odd and was in the "too good to be true" arena. Also, shipping to Denmark?!??!?!?
So I googled the name and your site came up. Bless your heart!
The name is Richard Aaron Graham.
