SCAM ALERT!

@ryanpatmon is commenting on people's posts to scam them. They'll comment "DM me if your open for commissions?" Or something like that.

They'll offer $300 for a commission (even if you told them it's $10 or less), ask for your email and then send a fake email from Paypal and a fake receipt.

The email said that because it's first payment/personal account/something it has been restricted. That the "client" needs to send you additional $200 for you to return to them, to upgrade your account.

I don't know what happens after that. I reported the email, I reported the account here on Tumblr (but not sure if I selected the right reason). I sent dm to a couple accounts that she commented but still.

They will seem like a real person, asking for "a portrait for her sons pet" and specifying stuff. Once you receive the email they say it is safe, that you'll return the money, and they will send a baloney email with 2 lines saying "you need to do something or we'll close your paypal account!". I talked with PayPal's customer support, they confirmed it's fake.

Under the cut you'll see some captures

The dog photos that she used

And the conversation.
