Stephen Jones, AKA Brett Sewell said he was an A & R for Sony in which he went off his perceived credibility on Linkedin. He said he would help be a bridge for our music to the major label. He sent a list of questions and an invoice from PayPal which has Sony Ent. a trademark and a logo on it with the real name Stephen Jones.
Once I paid he disappeared and when I filed a dispute with PayPal he lied and said I bought beats off him. In attempt to contact him he did not respond. I am still trying to get my money back.
I contacted Linkedin and reported his profile and have him under investigation by an attorney as well as the Internet Crime Division and PayPal. If you have been scammed by him call Paypal and report him. They said they will try to get everyone's money back.
We can also do a class action lawsuit against him.
