Agora Gallery Scam

Hello everyone.
Yesterday I recieved the following e-mail:

 I just needed to google "Agora Gallery review" to see several forums and blogs talking about this scam. To be sure I asked Winston Chmielinski about it, since he lived and worked in NY. He told me to "avoid it like a plague". By the way, he's an amazing artist . You can visit his site here.

 So I just told them that "Thanks, but no". I prefer to work with galleries with comissions for work sold.
