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.

Attention Artists!!

TL;DR: spam bot stealing art to advertise a scam website

It was brought to my attention that there is an account by the name of @/rokonrrc that steals and reposts others’ art to advertise what I am 99% positive is a scam. The bot has stolen art from numerous fandoms including Cookie Run, Transformers, BG3, Mouthwashing, Resident Evil, among others including non fandom works!

I’m unsure if it only takes from popular posts in the trending tab, or it finds posts posts big and small through tags, but I know a handful of artists whom this bot has stolen the art of.

If you want to help take the spambot down, please report + block. And most importantly, do NOT click the link under its reposts, as it will send you to a scam website!

Stay vigilant and cool, and have a good day! 🫡
