I encountered one of these scammers on DeviantArt. I took the screenshots as well and reported them to PayPal. Please do the same. It was hilarious playing with them, I especially loved the part in their scam e-mail where they tell you'll be arrested if you don't send them money ๐
And how they first pretended not to understand stuff and yet they were experts on how to proceed with the payments. They'll try their hardest to get their hands on the money as soon as possible. Even when you tell them to wait or that you'll only accept payments when you've finished the sketch they'll just ignore everything and send you the screenshot for the "payment" immediately.
I dunno, I wish I got more of these scammers to play with. I took great joy in watching them get frustrated on Discord as I was like "Oh dear, I have no idea what the issue is..!" while sending the screenshots to PayPal's support ๐
Hey guys let me tell you about advance fee scams
I hope y'all are familiar with these in this day and age, especially my artists out there, because they're incredibly common.
About half an hour ago I posted a drawing and tagged it #artists on tumblr, and very quickly received this comment.
My scam radar went off immediately, due to the generic blog name and lack of any emotion in the comment, but I decided it might be an entertaining venture so I dmed them. They asked for a drawing "of these", and sent me a random selfie. I got the details and told them it would be $15, and they promptly offered me $300. At this point I know it's a scam, but I play along for funsies and give them my paypal. Shortly, they send me this image for "confirmation" (I blocked out my email)
And they began to insist that I checked my email. I looked in my spam folder and found the following email.
This is fake. This is not a thing. And the "you're to refund the $200.00 back" is the scam. They send vaguely official-looking emails at you to "prove" that they sent you the money, then have you send them $200 (or however much the scam is for). Then, surprise surprise, you're out $200.
I continued to play along for a bit, and in the second email "Paypal" told me that I had to refund the $200 before they could "credit the $300 to my account", along with these lovely threats.
And yeah, it's silly. But it's not silly if you don't know and get scammed. So. Spread, please! And thank you very much to @mlaurel for the opportunity to get these screenshots.

Starring SniperSpy, the Chaotic Boyfriends and then just some random guys like Tentaspy. I hope this was all? Can't really tell, I'm losing count ^^'
Anyway, the full images are on my charity Patreon, if anyone's interested. Lots of other stuff too like animatics, random silliness, the SniperSpy kiddos and such.
Stay safe and have a wonderful rest of the year, y'all! RESIST!

Something different for a change.
So yeah, we watched The Lion King with my kiddo some time ago and while I was doing my very best not to start ugly crying my daughter just sat there, watching Simba trying to wake his dead father up and calling for help and snuggling under his fcking paw in tears, her only reaction was "He'll turn into grass now, right?"
Should I be worried? Do I need to contact a therapist?? She didn't cry when Bambi's mother died, either.

Merry Smissmas, one and all!
Spy is one kinky bastard when he's in charge. He loves taking his time, watching his partner squirm and taking in every slight reaction he gets from them. He's ready to drive them insane with need before he finally gives them what they want.
