Does Shopify use a company named Swanky to help fix compliance issues? Asking because I’ve been getting emails about needing to fix it right away but wanting to charge a fee in order to do so. It’s making me feel like it’s a scam which is preventing me from moving forward.

@Andear no, Shopify does not use any service called Swanky. Probably scam.
