Heads up: Discord scammers are now contacting legitimate artists asking for "advice" on how to get sales. What they are actually asking you is how to better evade moderation detection. Do not fall for it.

Paypal has rolled out ACH transfers for invoice payments. However, this method DOES NOT offer seller NOR buyer protection. Banks also may offer limited protection on ACH transfers, so use this feature with caution.

Scammer tactic alert: Instead of cold-messaging you to commission them, scammers are now impersonating REAL members of the community. Then they message you to ask if you want to get a pic with their sona together. The "artist" they will rec is a member of their own ring.

Concerning art scammers: DO NOT confront them about how you "caught them". Not only are you teaching them how to improve their methods over time, but these are not individuals. They are often from crime rings who do this as their day job. Report them to relevant platforms and block them.

Haha, well, since Draw Market is apparently very new to non Chinese users, no one has used it. One of our mods has signed up, and is currently testing the platform. It's missing some features Vgen currently has and is SFW only. The art is cute, though.

Has anyone tried draw.market ?

Beware: Cobalt SCW & Clutch Wolf Client(s) wanted a full refund a day after the artist's grandma passed away. Asked for endless edits, refused to pay, and then edited the artist's work without permission. artistsbeware.info/beware/submissions/client-bewares/beware-cobalt-scw-and-clutch-wolf-r2214/

Going to be a long shot, but has anyone heard from WrittenCommissions? The last anyone has heard from him is Aug 4th. He is very private, so I don't know any personal details to look up obituaries. We were in the middle of launching a project we were both excited for. It's not like him to poof. :c

Beware: Clockwork Carousel / Clockwork Carousel Creations Undelivered fursuit head that was canceled by the maker. The maker promised to refund the client, but has not sent the refund and is no longer answering messages. artistsbeware.info/beware/submi...

I apologize, but I need help more than ever before. I need 2091$ or I'm going to be evicted. Gofundme update: gofund.me/747230703 Kofi: ko-fi.com/princepotion Paypal: paypal.me/growlybeast Please spread the word. This is my last hurrah. Thanks so much.

LRT: "I can turn your fanfic into a comic" is one of the current cold-openings being used by scammers. The images are either traced or AI gen. "Your story (story name) was really captivating. Have you considered turning it into a comic?"

look, it feels tempting to make fanfics into comics, but i'm utterly scared. especially when someone approaches me to *commission* them without even i have asked or questioned about the idea. besides i'm an artist and i can draw stuff too!

If someone contacts YOU to commission them, but they only take payment methods that offer no recourse (Zelle, Venmo, Cashapp), RUN. If they contact you on a site like DA or FA and ask you to provide your discord/ tg first? RUN. These all the hallmarks of a commission scam.

Beware: quetzalcoatlbeautiful0 Ghosted the client while finishing new work, then blocked them after they asked for a refund. artistsbeware.info/beware/submi...

I like the part where Huion will only give me a refund for my keydial mini that doesn't work IF I delete the negative review on Amazon.
