Cosplay influencer scams are on the rise - I received *three* of these annoying things this week! Some of these scams are just plain annoying while others are legitimately unsafe - in this video I'll be sharing how to evaluate a good brand collaboration, how to recognize the warning signs, as well as five different influencer scams that I've run into. Follow along so that when that good cosplay collaboration lands in your inbox, you'll be ready for it!

(PS I am ready for my upcoming collaboration with "Ketchup." :) )
