I opened my Etsy store… and nearly got scammed 😳💫

Hi ,
So... something wild happened today. After months of dreaming about it, weeks of building it and three intense mornings of work, I launched my Etsy shop! 🎉
Loveenergymusic
Truth is, I first had the idea back in October 2023. But between finishing my second solo album 'Feel the Love' and writing my mini-autobiography, it got gently filed under “I'll get to it soon...”
Fast forward to two months ago, I decided it was time. With the amazing help of Morgane (thank you angel 💛), I built my first listing for my 528 Hz Audio Bundle, a high-vibe trio of digital downloads designed to help you tune into the frequency of love with a stunning fillable daily frequency planner.
This morning, I hit publish. I was buzzing, proud and absolutely knackered, so I shut my laptop, went to rest and make a nice cuppa of tea!
But within the hour, I got an email on my phone. It looked like it came from Etsy — same colours, same fonts — saying I’d just made my first sale 🥹💖
I was over the moon!
As I excitedly clicked the link supplied and answered the many questions about my bank - something felt off.
A little niggle in my gut told me to double check and I’m so glad I did. Turns out, it was a scam. A very real-looking phishing email from hackers pretending to be Etsy.
I was gutted — but I acted fast.
✅ Phoned my bank and cancelled my debit card
✅ Spoke with the fraud team who were amazing
✅ Upgraded all my passwords and security across my business
They tried to take over £300 from my account, but they didn’t succeed. And that, my friend, is what I call a spiritual upgrade in disguise.
Sometimes the universe throws us a test right at the breakthrough moment, just to make sure we’re ready. And I am. Stronger. Sharper. Still smiling ✨
So now, with joy in my heart (and a new debit card on the way), I present to you:
🎶 My first official digital product on Etsy →
The 528 Hz Audio Bundle – The Love Frequency
It’s designed to activate miracles, align your energy and help you gently return to your centre. And next week... another frequency treat is coming 💫
If you check it out, I’d love to hear what you think. Hit reply and let me know what vibes with you, or any suggestions you’ve got.
Big love and even bigger gratitude,
Elyse
