I googled him. He has one movie..it says he has a casting company...could be 
tiny. There are many independent film folks.

It looks, to me, like he emailed the contact people from the community origami 
groups that are listed on LISA’s website.

All this is a hunch, of course.

I got this same notice, and replied to him. He seemed legitimate.
Let's see what he responds.

Hi all,
I would venture to say this is real. He has few projects he worked on
listed in the IMDB.

My feeling is it's possible it could be legitimate, and it was sent out to
community groups, like a 'casting call', to see
who would be interested in participating in this project, then they would
narrow down the selections.
We'll see! At least he wasn't asking for money.

I received that email from "Prince Vaughn" and sent it to 5 fellow folders
who I thought might be interested in the proposed project. It came to me by
the name of my local group here in Prescott and I assumed they got that
info from the OUSA website. The email didn't provide a lot of info, but
there was an address in Alameda CA, and a phone #, and it wasn't asking for
money or personal info, so I decided it was probably legit. Well, so far,
nothing bad has happened at this end. And haven't heard of any problems
from the people I sent it to.
- I looked the Co. name up online and there is a Mapquest listing, a
real estate listing (doesn't say anything is for sale), and a corporate
listing (says it's a "branch" of Unrealistic Ideas LLC, opened in 2018).
But I found no trace of a website.

I also got his e-mail and I am nowhere near the quality of origami artist of 
you, June and Charlene, (amnd I am also not “known” in the origami world, so I 
was immediately suspicious. It just doesn’t sound legitimate and the tone of 
his writing also sounds questionable.

Yes, I also got this message --- by the way, it's Prince Vaughn ("n" on 
the end).  I have not followed up, but I do see that documentary 
film-making is mentioned on Mark Wahlberg's web pages.  I am wondering 
if it somehow connected to Community Origami Group events scheduled on 
the OUSA website.  Do you, by any chance, organize a COG event?  I do.  
I would be curious to know if you find out more. Feel free to write

Hey ...

Had anyone else heard from someone called Prince Vaugh, III? He contacted
me and said they were putting together a documentary on origami and we're
wondering if I, or one of my colleagues, would be interested in
participating.

Does anyone know about this? Anyone participating?

I am always a teeeny bit paranoid about things like this...

Thanks!
