At Rexius Records, we take our artist community’s security seriously. Recently, we’ve seen an increase in fraudulent emails impersonating our company, using fake email addresses and old A&R names to trick artists. These scams can mislead you into false agreements, phishing schemes, or financial fraud.
This article will help you identify scam emails, verify legitimate communication from Rexius Records, and report impersonators.
How to Identify a Fake Email from people impersonating Rexius Records
Fraudsters often use similar-looking emails to make their messages appear real. Here are key red flags:
❌ Fake emails may look like this:
📧 rexiusrecord3@gmail.com
📧 rexius.records@gmail.com
📧 rexiusrecordlabel@gmail.com
✅ Official Rexius Records emails always come from:
📧 @rexiusrecords.com (e.g., [A&R name]@rexiusrecords.com)
📧 Sometimes the reply-to email is “@rexiusrecords.my-crm.io” which is legitimate.
Key Signs of a Scam Email:
🔹 Too-good-to-be-true offers with no contract details
🔹 Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook email addresses instead of our official domain
We’ve seen cases like this (but the text might change in the future):
