Not sure if this is a scam

Warning to new creators: I am a new creator so not sure if this is a scam but it seems like it is, I received a message from a user who followed my store and then sent me a link claiming I had 24 hours to review a transaction-related form. The link appeared to contain “zazzle.com” but actually directed to a different external domain. Fortunately, I did not proceed to the site. has anyone else got this as a new creator i am not sure what to do, any advice appreciated thanks

@DeeAsacco   Make sure you report the message as spam and report the user too (click the three dots next to their name)

Don’t click any links from anyone that messages you. 

Zazzle employees won’t contact you through messages

I did also – you did the right thing – don’t click on anything suspicious.

I got one too. You can tell it’s a scam because the link looks suspicious. In my case, it even claimed that someone had bought a product I only created yesterday… Hahaha! As if that were even possible?! That would be a miracle. It also liked my store. Reported and blocked.

I got this too, and have reported the user. The suspicious link referred to my latest product, and their viewing history appeared to be lifted from my store home page; all my recent new products and my last sold product :roll_eyes:
