TAROT SCAMMER

@adorastarot is a scammer, do not buy from her.

As some of you know, I love supporting readers and people in general. If I have enough money, I'll more than likely buy from a small business or donate if I can. It's really a shame that I have to make a post like this because I have personally felt scammed by a reader on here.

I’ll try to keep it short. I have bought 4 readings from @adorastarot and have only received 2 of them. The second batch I had ordered when I knew she was on vacation (@adorastarot had even confirmed the purchase) so I expected a bit of wait at LEAST for that month, and wasn't knocking down her door for it because they were fun readings and nothing urgent. For about 2 months I would on and off forget that I purchased it and left it alone, which is a mistake on my part.

I didn't know there was a refund period (because I have never been scammed like this) so unfortunately, I missed the time to be able to get a chargeback. She has stolen $50 from me with no remorse. Typically I don't care what a reader does with the money they earn because it is up to the buyer if they would like to support them or not. But when you juke people out of their money, have no remorse and also only use your funds to go on trips (which is a luxury) is just so crazy to me. Imagine doing this while there are so many other readers out there who actually NEED the money.

I have tried contacting Kofi about this to no avail. Here are the screenshots of our last interaction. Keep in mind I have never had a bad experience with her before this.

And before anyone says anything, it's about the principle. Not only did I not receive an order, there was no communication as @adorastarot willfully posted on both her Kofi and Tumblr while not responding to my messages. I shouldn't have to do this over what is £35 to you.

‼️‼️‼️@/alwayseatinggg is another scammer, this time using *my posts* to tell ppl to dm them. their page is using stolen videos/images and largely only reblogging from other scammers also using stolen images. lmfao???

[cartoonmadness2230]

Why do people think it's alright to just try and scam people and be creepy?

Had this just happen. I'm not open for commissions anymore. Not that I don't want to fo them. But that I've had grown ass men want me, a 16 year old. To draw their junk! I would say no and they would continue to ask and say they'll give me more moment for it. Or, the scammer will get mad when I call them out and block me before I can say anything else. And normally these acounts are brand new. How do you guys gets these guys to go away?

A PSA TO THREADS USERS

(PT: A PSA TO THREADS USERS. End PT) If you use Threads (An app owned by Meta, and basically Zuck's version of Twitter but also not), you might've been seeing your posts get quote-reposted with something like this

It's a scambot. Your post has not been reported for copyright. And your account is not going to be banned. Meta would've sent you an email had that been the case (And keep in mind these accounts arent actually verified neither).

Clicking the link will lead you to a fake login/appeal page (one that's labeled as *not secure* might i add), which asks for your password. If you accidentally click the link by any chance, do not enter your password. Stay safe yall. @kyra45 not sure if you cover off-tumblr scams but thought you might be interested/aware of this.

SCAMMER ALERT

Today i got an ask from a blog claiming to belong to an animal shelter in the philippines.

I was about to dismiss it immediately. Like... "thankyou so much luv ya" isn't professional fund raising behaviour lmao. but then i saw that they've got a facebook linked....

The facebook has 75k followers and 60k likes, with an extensive post history and reviews dating back to late 2019. I even found an article from 2020 mentioning them. The article has information on them and the work they have been doing as a nonrpofit since 2019. The tumblr is very new. So, what's going on here?

I texted them! (I know i made a grammar mistake. Shut) They haven't gotten back to me yet, but I did get an automated message. The paypal link looks like it checks out right? No! The facebook doesn't say "bachprojectphil" anywhere. It's "bachprojectph" everywhere I looked. Clicking the e-mail from the message opened p@ypal immediately.

However, when I did the same on the tumblr post...

BOTH links opened this. It is a p@ypal site, but it's a profile, not the direct donation link. This link, or this username ending in "phil" appears nowhere else. If it was true that "they've gotten banned" and had to reregister to tumblr, the @aypal would still be the one legit one from facebook.

What I think is going on, is that this scammer took the name of a legitemate animal shelter, made a p@ypal that resembles theirs, and inserted a hyperlink over the actual email address that leads to their account.

I am still waiting on an actual response from a human, will reblog if anything changes but I feel like i've got a good case against the tumblr person as it is.

Support the actual Bach Project Philippines through their facebook.

UNDER SUSPICION OF FAKE PALESTINIAN SCAMS

this account has the same pfp as another one, and sent me a copy pasted ask at the same time as the one with the same pfp. Someone also warned (In a deleted comment) of MSSB being a scam.

Although, they both have different intro posts. One might be real, and one might be impersonating the other.

Plz donate to actual Palestinians! Just warning!

Edit: Two more accounts have been sending me the exact same asks since I started getting them. I'm a lot more convinced these are scams.

Edit 2: yet another one. I'll keep updating this with the different accounts.

Edit 3: another one ·:(

Edit 4: yet another one. Idk why this one guy is Targeting me.

[nossumusstellae]

Attention... New scammer going around, username charlottepen.

Commented asking me to follow to chat in DM about marketing, asking if I was working on anything 😒. Clearly didn't read my pinned post or my work.

On a post about my late mother, no less. I am disgusted.

Dear scammers: I am not stupid, I know when I am being played.

[phantomram-b00]

So, I got yet another donation scammer on my ama…thanks—

Here proof that this is a scammer:

Also with the fact that this account was made literally today. Seems that the cat scam isn’t working and now going to this tactic. Disgusting. Like absolutely.

So ghost pals mutuals or people who are gonna come across this blog please be very aware and don’t give these scammer any of your hard earn money. Best advice I can give you like I’ve mention before is copy and paste their ask in search bar to see if they copy or if there a pattern.

Just got a scam request commissioning my art. As I don’t have commissions open I said no but they kept pushing, so beware if anyone else gets this DM. Sadly I forgot to copy down their user/script before I blocked them, but they said something along the lines of being an art collector and paying hundreds for my art.

I don’t want anyone else falling for this scam so spread it around if you can. Don’t interact and block on sight, I made the mistake of interacting with them and they turned nasty fast.

I honestly don’t know if this is the proper way to handle this, I’ve been very lucky and haven’t experienced this much. But I’d rather say something than nothing if there’s a chance it helps someone else.

SCAMMERS ALERT

Please spread this, please reblog if you see it.

If you get a message or see a reblog going around asking for donations to get their family out of Palestine, CHECK THE CREDENTIALS.

I am getting messages almost daily asking for these. They are all scams. Asking for money sent directly to Paypal rather than a GoFundMe or an accredited charity is a huge red flag. The name on the Paypal is almost always Kenyan.

These people are scumbags trying to profit off of a genocide. They are trying to appeal to your good nature to scam you out of money. It will not help anyone in Palestine. DO NOT FALL FOR IT, DO NOT REBLOG THEIR POSTS.

There are loads of charities you can donate to that will help Palestinian families. They won't reach out to you on Tumblr. Any message sent is going to be a scam. Please spread this awareness, I am sick of seeing this and Tumblr's staff won't do anything about it. Report them as spam, since scam is not an option, block, and be safe.

hey, theres someone using your pics, i think to bait a feeder into giving them money

@/jollycatmagazine

even worse (/j) is that they undershot your actual weight in the pic they stole by 60lbs

‼️‼️SCAMMER‼️‼️

user @jollycatmagazine (i’m @ing because they’re genuinely stupid it seems) is stealing my photos and likely trying to bait ppl into paying them.

please report as spam or whatever else you like!! i’ve done the same for impersonation.

thank you so much for being this to my attention!!! it’s a fucking shame they undershot it too bc i was at leastttt 280 there fr

‼️‼️‼️‼️

[chrissy-kaos]

I use google reverse image search, which has been real helpful in finding who might be scam bots on here and then report it. Not sure reporting does anything, but at least I tried.

Yea it’s weird to me that these men out here fall for the scammers/bots. Then again people are just gullible like that. But yea, using the reverse image search is probably the most effective way to find out.

People have to be more diligent and investigate more. They also need to stop giving them attention. Report and block. Idk if reporting does anything but still worth a shot. Tho I police my content pretty heavily and have had scammers using my pics shutdown completely.

Look if the person in the pictures has an X account or an OF with hundreds and thousands even millions of followers.. they’re NOT on tumblr. They’re getting paid on X, instagram or whatever. You don’t get paid on tumblr. It’s safe to assume their pictures are stolen and that person on tumblr is fake. Furthermore if the name of the account is like Ivygirl005 or something like that. That literally means that the 5th account they’re scamming with. That’s how they keep track. It’s extremely obvious. Oh here’s another obvious example of they have telegram all over their blog. Most real people will have linktree or list the ways you can get in touch with them through various platforms. Not just feed you telegram.

would you mind deleting their scam from your blog, or clearly labeling it as a scam so it doesn't spread to others? in the future, please remember to search the username/paypal account name/text used by the people asking for money in your inbox

please familiarize yourself with the posts of some current scammers while they are still under these usernames: smwitais, beatriceegiveer, luckyprincessblog, noisyperfectioncollective, glitteryfesthaks, dhrogou, luckieangelali, chieffurygiver, burningvoidbird, tacofriends

i really recommend looking at their pinned posts in order to better recognize scams, not just using this list as a blocklist, because once they are terminated they each will immediately remake their scams under a new username

hi anon,

i would first like to apologize for my ignorance and not doing my research before posting their page onto my blog.

thank you for taking the time to educate and inform me.

please keep spreading this information.

here is mangocheesecakes post on them:

for anyone else reading this: please block and report luckieangelali (fatuma ali)
