Universal Brand Deal Verification Checklist
Use this for every sponsorship email — not just HelloFresh:
Is the sender's email domain the brand's official domain? Look up the brand's website and compare exactly. One typo = scam.
Real sponsorships pay you a flat fee post-delivery. If they require upfront payment from you, or offer commission-only but call it a "sponsorship," walk away.
Never sign anything with: no payment timeline, unlimited content rights, no kill fee, or that requires you to download software to "review" it.
Google the sender's full name + "LinkedIn." Find the brand's official contact page and send a verification email. Never click attachments in initial outreach.
Paste the full email into CreatorShield's Brand Deal Fraud Detector. We cross-reference sender domain, payment language, and red flag patterns automatically.
