Crypto Scammers pretending to be AllMusic

Hello. 

I got approached a lot by scammers lately via mobile texts that claim to work for AllMusic, and they all say they offer remote jobs. They end up insisting users to go on WhatsApp and to make an account on a fake AllMusic website, where they then tell the users that they can they get paid by rating albums. Eventually it leads to a conversation about transferring the fake earned money from that website into cryptocurrency, which I'm positive leads to some method of phishing users out of their actual accounts. They had many AllMusic training groups on WhatsApp (which they called ALL music training groups), where in each group, they allow a single victim in.

I doubt that the real AllMusic website/company really uses crypto as their own payment, and other practices the scammers claim... So from that, I suggest a page (or an updated FAQ section) that can inform users that those working for this company would never approach users in unsolicited ways like those scammers do.

I thought I'd share the fake webpage they sent me website: https://www.allmusicwebplayer.com/login

Hope such a change would help inform those who try to look up for discrepancies by comparing to the real website to tell whether they're being scammed.

Thanks,
Alex

Thanks so much.

Yesterday we heard from another user who pointed us to https://allmusicseoalbum.com/ which is the same thing.

Your Spidey sense is correct. This has nothing to do with us, and we're taking what legal action we can against them, as well as coming up with a message to our users.

Thanks for taking the time to give us this detail.

I was not able to edit in another attachment in my post, so I'll post the other image here: Here's a 2nd image showing all the groups (there are at least 60 of them...)
