As a Digital Artist in the Twitch / Streaming community space. Hearing your story makes me sad! This gives a reallyyyy bad name to the good artists. :( Thank you for sharing this how ever. I'd love to stop by and support!
@@BizzarBox i just got the email you followed me on Twitch. Thank you! I hate that so many good artists may be impacted by these types of stories. But I want to look out for others and to help good artists who actually care about their clients instead of caring about the money.
@@drstclair I cringe every time I get a random DM in Discord with small talk and then followed by some "professional" artist trying to sell me their art. LOL People like that make a bad name for artists in the space. First of all its very unprofessional to DM someone pushing your art on them. Second of all... I could never do this to people. Keep being amazing! I can't wait to catch the stream!
I've had this happen to me too! Thank you so much for making this video, i had written fanfiction and someome responded rlly positively and then immediatly asked me if they could make art of a scene i had written, it made me so incredibly happy and i told them they could since it's just fanfiction and i don't technically own the characters or settings they immediatly twisted the messages as if it was me who commissioned them, when they were the ones who offered it! I'm so glad i didn't give them a single penny! Thank you so much, i really REALLY hate people who pray on small people like us, i still remember how happy i was when i first got the positive comment only for it to be turned into someone that wanted to take advantage, it made me really upset, because of your video i will now be more aware of people like this, thank you.
@Hana-up6km that's all I wanted to do is share what happened so people can be aware of it. Like yourself, I was blinded by the attention "an artist" was giving me. Thanks for watching, and I hope your experience didn't discourage you to drop what you enjoyed doing.
tb if did you think? guy shows up trys to sell you something try to paypal company like name ask for rent money like no shit you got scammed, thats like paying money to a piracy site
@MatheusHenriqueRodrigues-f3z it really shouldn't have been hard for me to see. Looking back, and while I recorded this, I felt dumb for what I did. It was embarrassing to let happen to me and admit it. I am very lucky that I didn't lose a ton of money. But I know it has happened to others and will happen to others in the future. It felt like my duty to say something to prevent my story from becoming others, but worse.

@@BizzarBox I'd put it in the same class as a door to door salesman knock at the door.

This deserves soooo much more attention. Thanks for bringing this to light.
Thank you for watching. I worry that others are blinded by the offers instead of thinking for their safety. That's the reason why I made this.
Honestly a real artist will wait for you to reach out. All solicitors are scammers, point blank, even if they arent, they are still a scammer.
Im not even a streamer, so i just waste their time.
tb if did you think?

Also really like your PFP. Saw it and wanted to compliment it.
