Can someone help me? Is this influencer email legit?

Hi everyone! 🌸 I received this email from TORRIDEN inviting me to collaborate as an influencer. The offer sounds almost too good to be true, so I’m a bit skeptical. Has anyone here received one like this from them or know if this could be a scam? The email looks well-written and professional, but I just want to be sure before replying or sharing any personal information. They even sent me a contract, but it seemed a bit superficial and not very detailed, which raised even more doubts for me. Thanks in advance! šŸ’ŒāœØ

What is their email? I saw someone share about this too. The email writing is so sus and if the email is from gmail.com, then probably scam.

It’s Gmail too! I also thought that was strange, because I’ve never received a brand email from a @gmail.com address before. I’m kinda confused about how they even got my email address in the first place, bcs I actually really applied to Torriden’s PR form

Actuall emails never end with "torriden team" only. It almost always have a name underneath it. Also, these brands mostly use forms and if they would want you to reply it would be with your shipping address not "reply to this message"

Yeah, I noticed it didn’t even say the name of the person — just ā€œTORRIDEN TEAM,ā€ which already felt weird. And other brands usually just ask for your shipping address straight up after you apply, no back-and-forth like that. This whole ā€œreply to this messageā€ thing felt kinda off. Thanks for clarifying!

This is a scam. They are always formulated like this with a variation in brand names. Since your email is in your profile they can just try. I’ve gotten them weekly for years

That makes so much sense! I honestly felt weird about how the email was written too, but since I had actually applied through the official PR form, it made me hesitate. Thanks for sharing your experience — I really appreciate it! šŸ˜«šŸ˜«šŸ«¶šŸ»
