**Fake Accounts Impersonating Suspect Studios on TikTok**
Lately, we've been receiving an overwhelming number of DMs from people who claim they've been scammed by accounts pretending to represent Suspect Studios.
Some of these messages have even escalated to threats against our lives. These situations are the result of fake accounts using our brand to scam unsuspecting fans. It's essential to know that we take this seriously and want to clarify the situation.
⚠️
The primary account causing this issue is **@suspectshopnl** on TikTok, which is linked to the website **suspectnl.com**. Previously, they operated under **suspectplanetnl** and used the website **suspectplanet.com**.
This fake account steals our content, posts it without authorization, and has gone viral multiple times. They falsely advertise products like €15 joggers, leading many to believe they're buying authentic Suspect Studios merchandise when, in reality, they're being scammed.
To everyone who has fallen victim to this, please understand that this fake account is in no way associated with our brand. They are not authorized to sell our products, and any purchases made through their platforms are fraudulent.
what to do if you fell for it:
If you were scammed, **contact your bank immediately** and explain the situation. There may still be a chance to get your money back.
We also encourage you to follow my personal Instagram account, **@glenanton**, shoot me a DM and I’ll hook you up with a special discount code.
For clarity, our only official accounts are:
**TikTok:**
- @suspect.clothing
- @firstsuspect
**Instagram:**
- @suspect_studios (brand account)
- @suspectfiles (backup)
- @glenanton (personal)
Thank you for your support, and please stay vigilant when purchasing online!
