Received an email from Ink & Quotient

I am a designer and illustrator who received an email about a collaboration from “Ink & Quotient”. They seemed to have found me through my portfolio website, not filled out the form I have there but gone directly to send me an email.

So I looked up their website, it definitely exists, but it’s a lot of placeholders everywhere. So either someone has put a lot of effort into the website looking real as long as you don’t dive deeper, or they’ve just started it to fill out later. I’m especially considering that it’s a lot of work seeing as the link for the website is not provided in the email, I only found it through my own research.

I always feel like the wording is crucial when trying to figure out if something is a scam or not but I’m having a hard time with this one, so I’m pasting it in its entirety below (except for name censorship):

“Hello, u/laureidi

I hope that you are doing well.

I came across your website, and I wanted to reach out to see if you may be interested in a potential collaboration.

I am a writer from Chicago, creating a world-class library of quality media productions, and publications. I am assembling a team of 8 kind and talented artists and production professionals who are building/advancing our ideal careers for ourselves, at the top level in the world. This is not a job offer or a commission, but rather an opportunity to collaborate in manifesting your ideal, world-class career with seven, fellow, highly talented and highly skilled artists and production professionals.

I wondered if you might wish to have a call to discuss.

Thank you, u/laureidi. Enjoy a beautiful day.

Kindest regards, Lennie
