All things Shopify and commerce
Some marketting strategists are asking for store permissions. I have received bulk of emails. Are they legit or fraud?
That depends.
If you're looking to hire someone or have someone do some work on your store, then a collaboration request is needed. Be sure to check the permissions they are requesting before accepting it.
If they asked for a collaboration request even though they are not going to do some work inside your store, then raise some red flags. It's likely a scam.
Make sure to read this: Shopify Help Center | Collaborator accounts
Hope it helps!
Oh and, watch out if they are requesting access to these settings:
It's possible they are going to scam you via hijacking the payment side of your store.
What if i have given a scammer collaboration access with all the permissions and then realised its a scam and canceled the permissions?
Is my store safe to launch?
Yeah to me it looks like a scam. @PaulMartin said all you need to know.
One of the signs that it is a scam is the use of the word "kindly" 🙂
