thx for telling me. disappointed but not surprised. i posted mine on my duckysprouts tiktok account anyway so if u guys wanna go check it out…

[vinophidian]

Please report this person to get them banned and take this down, I paid for this art and it is of my AU @cupheadunsainted-askblog and made by a mutual/artist @/pangsitrebus101.

This account has obvious red flags and only reposts art, I can’t even access it on IOS and can’t take it down but people still repost it without questioning even though mine and Pangsit’s name are on it.

They also deleted my comment to delete proof.

i’ve known through a dm that there’s a person (i don’t know if there’s more of them) in reddit posting my art and claiming it’s theirs, i’ve never liked tagging my work so it wouldn’t get stolen, i guess because never imagined someone would have that interest with my art that is not that well known. either way, this is my post speaking about it.

i only post hypno art here, in tumblr, any work you see outside here with people claiming it’s theirs is fake and i’d like for y’all to report to me if that were the case. i know people here know me and wouldn’t mistake me for someone else but i don’t appreciate people taking credit for my work.

thanks a lot! sorry for having to make this announcement

🚨ART THEFT ALERT🚨

Hi everyone, I’m not a big blog and I mostly just lurk here but I won’t stay silent for this one.

This blog has blatantly stolen artwork from @beetlecrest and reposted it as their own. This is wrong and infuriating. They have refused to take down the stolen art or credit beetlecrest in any way and people who have messaged them to take it down have been blocked. The whole blog is full of stolen art. Please spread the word and go support the original artist!

Here is the link to the original post! 👇 Please go support them!

I know I should have posted the comic on YouTube myself first and watermarked my art, but (I know that's a bad exuse) I couldn't come up with the watermark I would like, and now it's too late. But this dude didn't have to stole my art in the fist place!

I've checked all the dms and comments and no, they didn't ask my permission to do this and neither tagged me in their YouTube short. I already wrote a comment under that video asking to credit me and I hope they will. I could just wait till this person's response but I'm posting this because I just want to post about the situation to remind people THAT STEALING ART IS NOT OKAY.

❗️I don't want anyone to hate this person or threaten them, that is no better than stealing art, but you can share this video so other art thieves would now that people are not okay with their actions.

Made a video about this ultra insane art thief:

Imagine stealing from us, then claiming we stole your name and your art to cover it up instead of just stopping and paying us for the hassle you caused.

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/612419249386759386/ I found this on pinterest but theyre pretending they made your art. This acc came up before in our server or similar one maybe like this and they want to sell prints of your art but ill let you know if i find it

-.- thank you for letting me know Nonee. I see @cubur 's art as well as some others that I recognize. This is one of the reasons I don't allow edits either...

TL;DR DO NOT support TEMU. Please. Besides me, they're a drop ship sweatshop and stole mine and some of my mutual's art designs. OH. MY GOD. SO I WENT TO A LOCAL REPTILE/BIRD STORE. It's a really good store, the only store in NY that sells Josh's Frogs products.

So I go to check out, and the cashier hands me free stickers.

Y'all. One of the stickers. ONE OF THE STICKERS. WAS MY DESIGN.

Apparently a former employee that passed, an old woman, bought bulk reptile stickers with her own money to give to kids, so, it's not the store that's selling my design.

But the cashier normally doesn't give stickers to adults, and had so many stickers he could have picked up, and HANDED ME A STICKER OF MY STOLEN DESIGN. WHAT ARE THE FUCKING CHANCES. WHAT. ARE THE CHANCES. THATS WILD. Now if you'll excuse me I need to see about TEMU for stealing my fuckin art.

** STOLEN ART: STORKCLIPS.NET **

It pains me to have to write a post like this. But I have recently discovered a website trying to illegally sell my artwork without my permission. I found the site by simply googling “Vermithor” in the search bar with the goal of finding new screenshots of him from the recent House of the Dragon Season 2 trailer to use as reference for a new sketch of him. Imagine my surprise when I found my art came up as one of the most popular images of Vermithor! But my elation did not last long. The site in question: storkclips.net appears to steal artwork and photographs from artists and cosplayers to sell for their own benefit. Not only that, but it appears to be a scam website too and I suspect they are also guilty of data mining. I just wanted to make everyone aware of this so no one else falls victim to their crap. When I attempted to file a DMCA infringement complaint through their software, I was immediately denied access from the site. It is likely they have IP address assessing software that block people who try to accuse them of their crimes from accessing the website again. But I know for a fact the website is still active. This is what happened right after I filed the complaint:

I have included below screenshots of the original artwork I posted on tumblr of my updated Vermithor sketch compared to the thief site’s “product”. It is very clearly my art, as they didn’t even bother to remove my signature in the corner at the bottom of his neck. They also used the first portion of my art’s description Updated Vermithor sketch based off new concept from tumblr as their “product’s” title. It is also clear they completely ignored my VERY obvious disclaimer in the worst way possible.

Also, when I googled the website to try a find out information on them what I found gave me reason to believe this website, along with their products, are likely a fake. I’ve posted a screenshot of one of the only reviews I found on storkclips.net that warns people of them being scammers. What this person says is true too, the contact email the site has listed is a fraudulent address and doesn’t work.

To all the creative content makers out there, I suggest taking a look around this website to make sure they haven’t stolen any of your creative property too. I will post a link to my stolen art from the site below. If anyone has any more information, please feel free to reach out to me and I will update this post. Maybe if we can call them out enough on their scams they will shut the site down. Everyone please stay safe.

Criminal AU

She's the thief with a record, he's a thief who's never been caught...so when they run into each other on a heist, they decide to pull it off together and split the profits. But then they meet up again and realize they have the same taste and start a series of high-end thefts that leaves the art world abuzz...

I give up on keeping my art safe from art thieves on Deviantart. There are too many of them. 😵

[air--so--sweet]

Don't do what I did kids, and properly research your etsy seller to make sure they're a reseller and not just selling others' artwork without permission. Otherwise you'll find yourself trying to use google lens to identify the original artists of the 100 TUA stickers you bought, so that you can make them aware of the seller if they want to make an IP claim, and so you can find a way to reimburse them as an apology for buying from someone who stole their work.

It is not as easy to track down the artists as I thought... The first one I found straight away...others are taking more digging...

The Wenclair fandoms ART THIEF, JBlueSky01, has returned!!!

They have blocked me as they continue to leave the stolen work tagged with their name posted on their profile, while continuing to steal more art and claim it as their own.

I don’t know how to report a post that I’m blocked from viewing, but you all have the ability to report the posts. I will post the direct links to the stolen work, along with the links to the true artist posts under the break. If you have accounts on these websites, then please give the real artists your support. These are just a few of the stolen posts I’ve gone through and was able to track down the true artists, but please keep in mind that it’s highly likely that every single piece of art they have posted is stolen from someone else. Some of their stolen art has thousands of notes, and I’ve even seen people on other websites believing that the work is theirs and actually giving them credit for it, which is completely unfair to the original people who have created the stolen work! Please please spread the word, report the posts and their account, because they will just keep coming back and posting stolen work again, because they are getting away with it.

@JBlueSky01

blocking me doesn’t change the fact that you are a blatant thief and liar. Blocked or not, I will bring attention to the original artists any time I have the chance to do so. You have people on other websites giving you credit for stolen work that they truly think belongs to you. I promise, it’s a much better feeling to get credit for something that you actually put your own time and effort into creating. Stop being literal scum and actually give it a chance, put in the effort to actually create art, instead of stealing things to pass off as your own.

Due to the all the many messages I have been receiving…no, that website is NOT legit and they blatantly stole my art… :(

Please let me know in the replies if you have their updated usernames.

Jeremy/Damiaya is an infamous art thief mostly known for scamming people with their traced art and copied/stolen oc’s.

(Currently on here and tiktok):

Once anyone is made aware of this within their circle, you’ll have different reactions, but in the past Jeremy would always respond with empty threats, harassment, or just straight up lie and blame someone else for their actions. (Sometimes they do this for no reason.)

But the worst thing of all, the allegations going around states that Damiaya was caught with beastiality links in their history while trying to pin the blame on their ex fiancé, and used to have a YouTube video up of them assaulting their AT THE TIME 8 YEAR OLD COUSIN, who was visibly uncomfortable. Authorities were called, but they did nothing. Damiaya’s step mother was told about this and she didn’t do anything.

(jermy.the.germ is now jeremybeware_)

A lot of things that Damiaya/Jeremy did on the internet is something they should be put into jail for, do NOT let them get away with it.
