I have updated the art commission scam post with critical and terrifyingly new information that has come to my attention. (Thank you @elrealelchunk!)

Scammers are now threatening to send your private information to law enforcement if you do not send them money.

This is 100% a scare tactic. You do not have to comply.

Your information is safe. Remember, they are scammers.

Just remember the golden rule:

You should never have to give money to get money.

Please make sure to share the updated version of the art commission scam post, and if you know artists, or even follow artists, ask them if they are aware of this scam, and if they're not, please make them aware of it by sharing this post:

This is just... so horribly disgusting. The fact that this can really mess with someone mentally and make them lose out on hundreds of dollars. How much of a deplorable excuse for a human being can you be to try and scam someone like this.

PayPal would never say something like this to someone, and the fact they're stooping this low just infuriates me.
