Is this a scam? Someone asking collaboration request.

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.

Hi @LetterCompany

Yeah to me it looks like a scam. @PaulMartin_1 said all you need to know.

One of the signs that it is a scam is the use of the word “kindly” :slightly_smiling_face:

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?
