Scam Warning: Fake REDIN Studio Accounts

Recently we have discovered several fake accounts pretending to be REDIN Studio, mostly on TikTok and sometimes on other platforms.

These accounts steal photos and videos of Protogen heads made by us and other makers, repost them, and pretend that the items are available for sale.

In many cases they even use the REDIN Studio name or branding to look more convincing.

Unfortunately, TikTok support often does not react to reports about these accounts.

How the scam works

Scammers run TikTok pages using stolen photos of Protogen heads — sometimes even heads that were already sold or custom-made for someone else.

When people contact them, they offer the item at a much lower price than the real market value.

Of course, they have no intention of shipping anything.

Some scammers even use AI tools to generate fake “proof photos”, for example adding a hand holding a sign with text you requested.

Payment methods used by scammers

Fraudsters usually request payment through:

Cryptocurrency
Money transfers to third-party individuals

Once the payment is sent, they disappear.

Important: how to safely order from REDIN Studio

The safest way to purchase a Protogen made by us is through our official website: redin.studio

Payments on the website are processed through Stripe, connected to our official business account.

Cryptocurrency payments are also accepted only when arranged directly with us, and they usually include a discount because processing fees are lower.

Orders may also be discussed through our official social accounts:

Instagram: @redin_studio

Telegram: @redin_studio

TheDealersDen: redin_studio

Discord: redin_studio

Email: hello@redin.studio

P.S. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is.
