SCAM ALERT: "Photographer needed for a commercial production"

05 May 2016
It has been reported that an email titled "Photographer needed for a commercial production" has been going around from a production company claiming to be Black Lab Production. The email states that they are looking for a still photographer for a commercial shoot in San Francisco. This has been reported as a phishing scam. Do not give out any of your personal information. Black Lab Production has the current message on their website:

IMPORTANT: We are NOT currently hiring for any P.A. or Photographer positions. If you received an email from an address ending in “blacklabproducton.com” (please note there is no letter i in production) that states we are currently looking to hire, please do NOT send them any information. This is a scam and there are people out there posing as Black Lab Production in order to phish for information. Thank you!
