Is anyone else getting inundated with "producers" on Stage32 asking for exorbitant fees for "collaboration" on a completed script

I've only been on Stage 32 for a couple weeks and have been getting "producers" wanting to be part of their network and then messaging me promising to produce my scripts and such but then they want a fee in the thousands of dollars? I've reported two so far.

Hi, Asif Balouch. It happens from time to time. Stage 32 is quick to remove those accounts. Thanks for reporting the scam accounts. If anyone sees a fake profile, scam profile, or suspicious profile on Stage 32, email support@stage32.com with the person’s name and their Stage 32 profile link. And if someone sends you a scam message (like a producer asking for a producer's fee to make your script), send a screenshot of their message to Support with their name and profile link. If you can't send a screenshot, copy and paste the message when you email Support. Thanks.

Appreciate it, Maurice.

Asif Balouch These scams happen on many platforms.

Anyone asking for upfront money is a scammer. Close their message and report them

no second thoughts.

Yes. Reported the last two who approached me. Both have since been suspended. Maurice is the right person to make aware of such a request.

I researched the name provided and it seemed to check out. But the first clue was the request to make contact outside of Stage32 and the second was the request for upfront money. The funny (SIC) part is that they asked for such a small amout I couldn't help but laugh. No one could do anything of substance for a couple thousand bucks. If you are going to scam, go big or go home.

I signed up today because I am looking for a real gatekeeper, and I was told that this platform was an option. As an anti-social media dude, I think that Stage32 is just another ocean of people with a lot of time...
