Hello, we were just contacted by a show called NewsWatch. This is the message they sent us:
Our producers here at NewsWatch recently came across Pluckd and asked me to reach out to you. They thought that Pluckd could be a good fit for a feature on our morning show.
Have any of you crossed paths with them before? Are they legit? Thanks!

Read their proposal carefully. They are going to charge you for production costs and fees. They are basically a production company and you will get a video that you can use in your marketing. Be careful. I do not recommend.

Oh my, seems these guys do a lot of cold email. @Fernando Cordeiro is it possible to share a screenshot of the email?

Here it is. It's a very generic template to get an initial contact with us. I'm certain they have no idea of what Pluckd is.

Ah yes. I jumped on a call with them once. They run a 30min segment on AMC and present 15 new Start-Ups on every 30min show. They asked $5000 for a 2min Promo-Video and some online marketing support like an article or something similar. For me, it wasn’t worth the investment.
