It would be about 5 days. But i need to talk to you regarding your job before i get it in the works. Please call me when you have a good phone line, as i couldn’t hear you when i called. Also, i am concerned about your image. There is no contact information and it seems a strange flyer to have 70,000 copies printed with nothing but Save the Children.
Thank you. Also, how did you find me? Did someone recommend me to you?

The price is $4404 on 100# Gloss book, delivered to Rodeo. Costs more for you to pick up.
Your artwork only says “Save the Children”?
There is no type that didn’t come through in the translation?
On new clients, I need payment in advance through PayPal. I send and invoice and you pay via card, check or whatever.
I look foreward to hearing from you and working with you Scott.

It came from the email jame.larry41@yahoo.com. I responded with a quote because, at the time, I had no reason to doubt its legitimacy. Today, however, I received a reply stating that the item would need to be shipped to the Netherlands. Here is the email:

So needless to say, I did a little googling because it seemed a little strange that someone from LA would contact a small-time printer in New England about a job going to the Netherlands (also look at that freight company email address, seriously? you couldn’t do better than a hotmail address…..?) Thanks to Google Maps street view, I determined no such place existed and happened to stumble upon this website, so I thought I’d share this with you all.

Good Day,

Please can you please provide quote on 80,000 copies of the flier printing with the following specs.

A. 80# Gloss Text
B. 0.25 – White boarder
C. Full Colour
D. One sided
E. measures 8.5′ x 11′
F. I want it to be flat.
G. what method of payment do you accept ,Also the quote must not include shipping because they will be picked-up.

*my tip off is that we’re not a printing company.
