NEWS: Promotional Scams Outed In Canada

This is all over the news on the internet, scams coming from the United States got arrested spending billions of dollars in fake promotions.

This is where the internet sucks, they don't have the news and shows compiled to see all this in one spot...maybe the story is breaking live on mainstream news, or put in the background because of the storms on the East Coast and now and yes, forest fires on the West Coast.

Serious reminder, always make some kind of plans for these events in case you get stuck in a hurricane during the recent storm season...since the heat dome started and all that, this could last decades I mean before it goes back to just being terrible, with the regular lava and all that. 

Back to the story...

This was also reported on the news that record stores that still run backed the "Cd and Lp" resurgence, a $20 million dollar "CD" industry run by a multi-billion dollar scam.

Now people said that the scam in Canada was all promotional material was just photocopies, independent stores BOUGHT all their own inventory and the promotional materials were those photocopies.

Stuff like, Album Posters, Promotional Magazines was not on an actual promotion...people stopped buying CD's and switched to digital format for the smartphone.

Now some record stores owned all their own inventory and the posters were just photocopies...

Then the scam came in and promised to put all the bands on the posters which were just photocopies in an independent store.

Now they said that was the youth center scam they had, and the old men hanging around the youth centers were in on this scam and talking to people in record stores telling everyone all the people at the youth center were getting signed.

Then in the end it was photocopies from some scam in the United States spamming us here in Halifax and Montreal with bullshit promotional materials that were just color photocopies then the money they stole came form artists paying to get their picture put on the photocopies at the record store that was run without record company promotions.
