Scam red flags
The one rule
Money only moves in your Krampus Market vendor portal.
We only take booth fees by card, inside your Stallkeeper vendor portal. We never ask for e-Transfer, PayPal, gift cards or crypto.
Lookalike addresses
Scammers copy our names with one letter changed, a dot added, a different ending, or an extra word like “-payments.” These are made-up examples, not messages anyone has actually sent — the real thing might use a different trick.
- Real: @krampus_market · Made-up fakes: @кrampus_market, @krampus._market, @krampus_market_official
- Real: babushkabotanics@gmail.com · Made-up fakes: babushkabotanics@gmai.l.com, babushkabotanics@ɡmail.com, babushkabotanics@gmail.net, babushkabotanicss@gmail.com
“Please resend the payment”
A message saying your payment “didn't go through” and asking you to send it again, by e-Transfer, PayPal friends-and-family or a gift card, is a scam. We never ask for this.
Waitlist offers that want proof of payment
Real waitlist offers only appear inside your vendor portal. We never ask for a screenshot of a payment.
Invoices by email
Our invoices only exist inside your portal. Our fees only ever carry GST. An invoice with any other tax or a different amount isn't from us, and a payment link that arrives by email never is.
Tickets
Entry is $5 at the door, 12 and under free. We never sell tickets online.
