Erin Rowland DBA Swirly Girlz BUYER BEWARE SCAMMER COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT Houston Texas

Erin Rowland DBA Swirly Girlz advertises that she makes screen printed shirts.   My company hired her in October 2014.   She was paid in advance and all supplies were purchased by me to make shirt for my shop.   Erin claimed on her Etsy store and on her facebook page that her turn around time was 2 weeks.   So after waiting for 2 months for orders I was forced to file claims against her.   Erin was warned in advance that I would be doing this unless she delivered the goods 1 week in advance.   Erin failed to deliever the items and claims against her were filed and decided in my favor.   Erin claimed to make custom shirts for my company using her original artwork.    It has since been brought to my attention that she stole copyrighted images and passed them off as her own.  

Erin not only passed the art work off as her own but she billed $100 per her original artwork.    Erin had suggested that I use Pinterest to give her examples of what I liked and different fonts as inspiration.   What Erin didn't reveal was that she was somehow copying the work and not actually creating any of it.  She also claimed that since she made the art work that was supposed to be specific to my show that she could also sell it in her shop and sell them to my competitors.   Erin is very vindictive and has is on a public mission to try to destroy my business as revenge for utilizing my rights to a refund for the items that she did not make for my shop and was paid for in advance.     Erin has cost my business thousands of dollars of damamge.    She will scam you and she will give you products that she does not own the copyright to. 

If you work with Erin be sure to take all precautions and only pay her using your credit card.  It is the only way to ensure any recourse.   Erin is a master at lies and manipulation and knows how to work the system if you use paypal.   Erin had two choices send the goods I paid for in advance or refund me for the items.  She chose to do neither of them and tried to intimidate me into closing the claims in order to receive my items.
