Bands be on the lookout for phish emails that charge you "pay to play" or monthly fees to manage you.
1) "Pay to play" is a rip off. No legitimate music industry person would sink that low.
2) No real managers charge a fee to manage. The standard percentage for management is 15% of gross.
Lately bands are getting a lot of phishing emails promising all kinds of things as long as they pay a monthly fee of $300. I'm not going to post the phish email word for word because they come back on you with a cease and desist because of posting a copyrighted letter. Can you believe the balls? An attorney threatening you with copyright infringements when you post an email sent to bands that is obviously phishing? It's happening so all you can do, bands, is to be on the lookout and avoid being a caught phish. I have personally sent this email to bands and am asking readers to share this message.
Thank You.
