I just wanted to let people know that I was contacted by someone to do some work and it turned out to be a scam.
 
"My name is Kate I am an academic event organizer and an Apraxia patient. I got your contact details on Behance. I need the service of an artist or illustrator/cartoonist to work on a project for an upcoming workshop. I will give the idea of what I need to be illustrated/drawn and you can get back to me.
 
Warm regards"

Hello, this is still happening, please all beware. I actually got further and even started some work before things got even more suspicious. Thank you for posting your email verbatim, it's what came up in search.

I got the exact same message a couple of days ago and decided to Google it to see if it was legit. Thanks!
