I got this email:
Please contact me as soon as possible.
This is in regards to a record label being interested in your material.
I can be reached at the following number: (418)-948-3624.
My name is Luke Bossy, and I will expect your call over the next 48
hours.
Thank You
Luke

A quick google search revealed this post on JamHub:
Post subject: Papercut Productions/Luke Bossy/Productions 681.....legit? PostPosted: Jul 26, 2006 - 09:42 AM #92064

Our band was contacted yesterday by this guy (Luke Bossy) saying he represents a record label out of Quebec called Productions 681. Of course a red flag went up when he said we had to sign a contract by Saturday. Anyone else been contacted?


So, anyone else been contacted?

And this comment on Giraffecycle:
If any bands get emails from these guys...ignore at all costs. Spread the word. We got contacted by these fellows as an 'interested label', and it's a wash, man. No good. It seems they want to try and take naive bands for hard earned funds, and they're name dropping, where they shouldn't be name dropping.

AVOID AS IF IT WERE THE BLACK PLAGUE!

Looks like a good place to drop this:

Addresses the generality, not the specifics, of this Luke Bossy thing....
