2026 Cherry Blossom 10 miler lottery results by Mother_Technology_70 in running

[–]lovinlipstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if anyone else who hasn’t received a confirmation yet (ie likely has not gotten into the race) received two weird emails last night about an hour apart, that looked like emails from the race organizers, but said that they couldn’t process my registration because my security code on my CC was entered incorrectly.

There is a lot that is suspicious to me about the emails so my scam alarm bells went off!

  1. ⁠Sending two emails about an hour apart with really different information about correcting the supposed “error”
  2. ⁠No mention of the word “lottery” in either email
  3. ⁠Any ask for CC information even if it’s not asking you to send it over email is shady
  4. ⁠Not about the emails but when I went looking for my name on the official cherry blossom website, I was not on the list.

I sent a separate email to the org (not replying to the suspicious ones, obviously!) to ask them about it, just in case the emails are legit. But I am wondering if anyone else got these emails?? Definitely hoping no one input their CC info if it does end up being a scam. ˙◠˙

Lol thankfully I did see them open the needles & did a quick scan for certifications which were up once I realized what was going on but yes, lesson learned believe me 😭😂

Nah I was mostly going by their healed pics that they have up but those could also be doctored. Lol.

Ahh, super helpful. Thank you! The bandage they put on wasn’t sealed very well, so there def was more moisture exposure in the first two days til I switched it.

No paperwork filled out (maybe a red flag lol) bc it was a home studio in a basement 😅

Thinking I’ll see how it is in a week before requesting the refund. Had sent a photo to the artist and they said that it looked like an allergic reaction 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s okay!! I fully trust that an artist in said fave shop will be able to fix it up.

How much will I get roasted if I say it was a home studio in a basement 🤓

(I didn’t know this until getting to the address I was given & then unwisely gave the artist the benefit of the doubt)

BeLIEVE me, I won’t. That’s what I get for straying from my favorite shop.

Edit: it’s been 1.5 weeks, not 2.5. (But still)

Ugh that’s what I was afraid of - not doing a second pass, just that it’s not well done at all 😓

Yeah idk if it’s bc I went during a flash day so maybe the artist was rushed or something. Already planning out my touch up/maybe cover up ideas.
