Just got home from doing some Utah Art Shows, one of which was in Park City. I had a man come into my booth and said he was from Australia and wanted to know if he could order and have stuff shipped to Australia. I said not a problem he took my card and said he would be in touch. I got home a few days ago and got an email from someone saying they lived in Australia and wanted to buy some prints, so I assumed it was the person I talked to in Park City. He wanted to buy 10 large prints and wanted to use a credit card and have them shipped. I said I will need to ck on shipping, He emails back and says not to worry about shipping he contacted his agent in the UK and they have agents in Las Vegas so they can pick them up. What is the cost and I will give you my credit card info. That is when the red flag went up. I googled his name and it is a big art scam. So be careful. The name he uses is Etherington Parton
Thanks and sorry for the long post, this is more than I have said in 8 years.

Well I did 5 shows in 6 weeks in Utah and I could not say for sure what he looked like. Also he may have not had anything to do with it. I talk to so many people and give out cards it could have been anybody but it sure is funny that he made a point to say he would be in touch.
Thanks charles354
