Mick Adams and the Stones, which bills itself as “the world’s most authentic” Rolling Stones tribute band, may have sympathy for the devil, but that doesn’t mean they appreciate being scammed.
“We escaped this without getting screwed,” said Erin O’Brien, the band’s manager (and wife of lead singer Adams). “But I’m worried about other people in the business who might fall for something like this.”
Which would, of course, leave them shattered.
OK, enough with the Stones references. This is a classic bogus-check racket, with the unusual wrinkle that it’s targeting entertainers rather than, say, seniors sitting alone at home.
