W-9 Request
Recently I have been getting emails from biz-help@bunnystudio.com asking me to fill out and send a W-9. I have no problem doing that as it is common practice for many of the platforms for which I do voiceovers. However, I wanted to see if anyone else is getting these emails to make sure it is legit. I have never been asked to provide one via email without a secure upload to some kind of protected document server given the sensitive information it contains. Thanks in advance!

Also getting these emails as well. But I was pretty certain I had filled out a W9 form within Bunny's payment internally a few months ago. I'm looking into this and also getting emails from
Paola Torres
that says they are the accounting analyst.
I am also wary to give away personal info over email too. So thanks for checking. Will keep you posted on my end too.
Ted
Thanks Ted. I appreciate the comment. I have not gotten anything other than the initial emails asking. I will let you know if I hear more.
Hello, Amy and Ted!
I hope you are both doing great.
We hope you are having a great day.
Our Finance team indeed issued some emails, since we needed your help in order for our Finance team to issue your Tax declaration 1099 document.
Since we have changed our payments system, we cannot utilize older W9 forms to declare payments that were made to you via the older system. You may have signed the new W9, though it will only be used within the new system.
Please note that without this documentations, we will not be able to issue your 1099 for tax declaration purposes further on.
We apologize if the email generated some confusion, Paola is indeed one of ours at BunnyStudio. =)
Let us know if you have any further questions, we will be able to check each and every case specifically.
Send us an email to support@bunnystudio.com if you are still in doubt on how to proceed.
Best regards to all,
Gabriela Schneider
