Thanks to Lucy for spotting this in June 2010. PS.: The latest version of this now says Donna Karan and DKNY instead of Lucire. If you have the scam email with the headers, please send it over to us and we would be happy to file a complaint as well. We would even recommend you raise it with the FBI as we understand it is a Nigerian 419 scam. If you have the sender’s email, report it to their abuse department. We also hear that other sites have been targeted, though to date the ones mentioning Lucire have been, to our knowledge, only at Model Mayhem. Please note that we do not believe that these messages to have come from : we realize these have been put there by others.

FHM and Glamour have also been targeted by the scammers. There is an indication that Nigerians are behind it. We have alerted the authorities, although the British High Commission has refused to get involved since we cannot prove that these have come from British subjects. And if we are paying you, the amount will certainly not be coming from companies in Duluth, Ga., or Orangeburg, NY. Repeating a post made in August 2008: please be on alert, at sites such as, for anyone claiming to be from Lucire based at 32 Vauxhall Bridge Road, London.
