It’s come to our consideration that there are scammers on social media asking individuals for cash in change for Billboard protection. To state it clearly: Billboard contributors by no means settle for cash in change for Billboard protection.
If somebody reaches out to you asking for cash in change for protection in print or on-line, please don’t ship that individual cash. These social media accounts are usually not affiliated with Billboard in any style, though a lot of them faux to be. Many of those accounts put up images, articles and biographical info they’ve copied from actual Billboard contributors’ social media accounts.
Please watch out for the quite a few imposters at present working this rip-off. Whereas we report these accounts, we shouldn’t have the flexibility to ban or freeze these social media accounts ourselves. If a social media consumer asks you for cost and guarantees Billboard protection, block the consumer and report the account to the social media platform immediately.
You’ll find Billboard‘s contact information here.
