    Hey Rikki, it's Sue my friend Chantal and I were fortunate to meet with you and the guys in Toronto. We were truly honored that you guys were able to incorporate the flag bandanas in your show. You made us feel so welcomed during our meeting with you and created a meaningful memorable moment for us both. Wow what a way for us to celebrate our 50th birthdays. Also I would also like to say how wonderful your long time tour manager Rob was. You all are very fortunate to have him representing yourselves,he treated us royally and made us feel like team members. I believe he even referred to us as his Canadian cattle as he was herding us in the the lineup. Rob really made the procedure leading up to the meeting a show in itself."he's a keeper ".Rikki I hope you enjoyed your birthday night after the show. If you ever have to visit the city again there are numerous locations in and around with an adventurous lure, especially for your ghosting endeavors. Thank-you and the guys again for making the show so truly special for us.
    Sincerely
    Sue and Chantal XOXO

Basically i was to pay shipping and handling cost, i didnt i knew something fishy was going on, i didnt even know there was a chance to win ANYTHING!!

    👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽way to go Mrs Rockett! I work for a bank, been in banking for over 20 years, and I tell ya them scammers are good at pressing for money.
    I think I got a message from “Def Leppard” their RUclips but it looked like they but I could tell it wasn’t them. I supposedly won something for being such a great fan. I think I also got something on Rikki’s RUclips also for being a great fan. I figured it was a scam. I definitely don’t have $10K not even close to $200K. But yeah I hope these scammers get some good Karma!

    Leo from Frog Leap Studios has a scammer like this. They targeted me as a winner of an Epiphone Flying-V guitar. Same method of getting details etc.. Thankfully I work in cyber security so I was wise to this tactic.

    Hey Rikki, I fist pumped you in Pittsburgh when you were on back of cart just exiting your bus parking lot. I was astonished of the number of scalpers selling T-shirts. I never could understand why this is never policed in the parking lots and the number of fans that purchase. The money lost to crooks. In the old Philadelphia Spectrum parking lots, the police (undercover) used to bust these crooks. Rock is not dead and the High School kids are hungry for 80's rock. I'm a Bassist for HIRE. 👍Stay vigilant on these scum scammers. GOD BLESS 👊

    Yea...he contacted me and asked me to download the app. I checked into it and it just seemed too hinkey for me to follow up on. You and I have met twice in KC and Wichita, Ks. years ago. Even though it was only briefly each time you were very gracious and I just wanted to say that you are an amazing person and are much appreciated.

Wish there was a way they could stop it but unfortunately it seems like it can't be stopped. It will keep happening and there will be another one. Love the channel and your music.

    Rikki They obviously don’t know you very well because you’ve been known to meet up with fans and go for a bike rides and that doesn’t cost anybody a penny. you’re pretty accessible to your fans and that’s why people relate to you. These scams have been going around for a very long time on everybody’s social media pages but I don’t know if anybody that has fallen for them yet thank goodness. Much love and respect to you and your wife.

    @thebaldshredder Год назад

    These scammers are all over RUclips. Telegram is the big giveaway. Even on my videos, the scammers pretend to be me, using my profile pic, telling the commenters that they've won a free guitar. And of course to contact them on Telegram, which I've never used. As the scam goes, they ask the "winner" to pay the shipping for the "prize guitar." These scammers are on most of the bigger guitar channels. I block and delete them, but like cockroaches, they always pop back up time after time. Anyway, these scammers are total scumbags.
