This is a serious one people. I share my experience getting ripped off by a respected  member of the metal/vinyl community: YouTuber "Melanie Loves Death Metal". She has gone missing in action, accounts deactivated, and blocking everyone she owes money to. If you have had similar experiences, please email me and let me know.
