Wanderlust Weekly Erica Pollard Wanderlust Magazine contacted my business, conned us out of money for advertisement. lied about running feature stories and promoting business, has information due to the interview Internet
In September of 2017, my company was contacted by a lady named Erica, who claimed she worked for Wanderlust Magazine. They have an online website Which is called Wanderlust Weekly.
" I write for an online travel and lifestyle magazine called Wanderlust, we cover conscious people and products around the world. We'd like to run a wellness feature on (My business), any interest?Please review the site and let me know, thanks we'd love to have you. =) wanderlustweekly.org "
Being a small business and familiar with Wanderlust I was thrilled and honored to be featured on their site. I agreed to being a part of the feature and doing the interview. Then I recieved an email of simple interview questions about my business, so they could " run an entrepreneurial profile on me and how I manifested my vision." I answered the 3 questions, and provided pictures as reqested.
After reading what I had wrote, Erica then mentioned that Wanderlust Magazine wanted to help me get a few projects off the ground.
"Also we'd love to help support your (PROJECT 1) and ( PROJECT 2). If you like we can put together a newsletter campaign for you to get the word out, which means we'd send a series of eblasts with(my business) branding and news to our 50K subscribers over a 2 month period. You're not obligated but it's very effective, with a one time fee of $($$) to help with our costs."
I agreed to the fee and was sent an invoice from Wanderlust Magazine. Paid the fee and never heard from them again. I've emailed over and over and got zero response.
