Be careful with who you come across. Found this profile, they liked a few of my posts, then I looked at their profile and it appeared they posted legit vtuber content that spoke to me, DMed them and turns out they were an art scammer (no VGEN page or anything to legitimize them).

I've noticed that the vast #majority of people who ask me for #ArtCommissions are #scammers. It wasn't like that 20 years ago.

Youtuber with a decent following almost fell for a scam that got me a few months ago. I don't have many followers here, I'm in the mood to get her her video about the topic under all the eyes I can. #artscam

Is there a new scam asking to use a photo for a commissioned artwork but you can’t only be paid by paper check because the “client” refuses to use all modern payment options? I’m sincerely asking because that’s the conversation I just had all my hackles are raised.

My fellow artists, be careful, because there are more scammers out there~

I just got sus email and digged enough to find out that they use those every couple years more intensively. My example looks like draft, but still, be careful out there!

Intentaron estafarme con una falsa comisión por PayPal
¡no caigan!🛑 #artscam #freelancerlife
Someone tried to scam me with a fake PayPal commission. Luckily, I spotted it in time. Be careful, artists if it sounds weird, don’t fall for it!🛑 bsky.art

#ArtScam Alert:

If you see an ad on the instagram cesspool, it’s suspected to be a scam trying to screw us artists even more. I recommend to not apply and pay the fee! Grifters gonna grift grift grift…

And given they address artists, this ad is a visual insult!
