Are you available for commission

So how does a commission scam work? You’ll get asks like this from blank blogs who didn’t see your commissions posts and instead are programmed to send these to anyone using certain tags. Afterwards, they’ll offer you $300 to draw a pet but won’t use your preferred payment option. Instead, they’ll ask for your email address. What happens next? You’ll get a phishing email claiming to be from PayPal saying you need to upgrade your account and when you click the link you’ll compromise your account details to the scammer who will then try to get your money. You will not be paid for your work at the scammer will then move on to someone else and block you.

If someone was really interested in commissioning you, they would already know the answer if they seen your post about it.

So what can you do? Block bots like this and warn other artists.

I wish more people were aware of how vital reblogs are for artists (and fan creators in general)

I was reading Superman #174 where Clark has Lois read him Martha's diary and it hit me in the feels

i so admire people who wait until they have a bunch of drawings that pair together nicely to post them… the second im done drawing something i cant help but be like ok everybody come look at this right now this instant. or else

Reading Jason's robin run rn and the ngl, the (retroactively) doomed Robin narrative got to me. Also the handshake is a reference to the panel (under the cut) right after their first team up post-crisis, from Batman (1940) #416.

Also just so we are clear, this is not a ship post

SCAMMER ALERT - rubymexz

Type of scam: Art theft / Artist Impersonation

"Commission me I need money for rent"

This user is your typical "I steal other peoples art, pretend its mine, please commission me I need it for <urgent reason> before <day> please I'll pay you back in art." And then they ghost you.

How this story started:

Part 1. The DM.

Part 2. How/Why this is a scam.

After the DM, I knew almost instantly this was a scam. So with the help of @kyra45 we started looking through the "art" on the scammers blog and found them to be.. rather inconsistent in style.

Not only that, but the first red flag was a 3D render that was straight up stolen.

The original creator/owner:

Note: the date of the op was 9 months ago.

And for me, I reverse image searched this image:

Which lead me to this website, tumgik:

which is where I found the user cherrysphix!

So then I looked them up on tumblr and: WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT!

Here is cherrysphinx's art from 2024!

Annnnnd...

Here is the stolen art/archive from this scammer this month!

HMMMMMMMMMMMMM.....

And look! The 3D model's there too!!

Long story short: Yeah. It's a scammer.

Don't commission them. If you have, ask for a refund. You'll never get your art. If they DM you, report them immediately.

If you don't know how to reverse image search images:

Here's a how to guide: Reverse Image Search.

And remember:

If an artists art looks inconsistent in style, do your research first.

If they only started posting on tumblr within the last week/month, and they're DMing YOU to ask you to commission THEM? It's most likely a scam.

Trust your gut. Don't get scammed. <3
