Anyways hi! Here’s some basic info:

I found lots more on the artist's website, and then came across Percy in the Pool, which almost did me in 🥺🧡
moment of unspeakable beauty today when one of my coworkers called another coworker "judas" for not splitting a can of white monster with her, and i got to watch the guy who sits next to me open a new google tab, type in "jeudis," and say quietly to himself "french thursday...?"
people will say "why cant the eldritch gods just be nice to humans :((" and then kill a bug for existing near them
my dearly beloved mutual you cant just leave this in the tags
While exploring a vast and inscrutable city which seems to predate life on earth I am gently picked up by something incomprehensible with the higher-dimensional equivalent of a cup and piece of paper, then lovingly set outside in my natural habitat. Unfortunately the being exists outside of time and can't really tell human cities apart from one another so I appear without warning in ancient sumer.

THIS IS TOO ACCURATE HAHAHHA
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.
This is a variation on a much older scam that often results in the victim being out money and also out whatever they were selling. It goes something like this:
- victim posts an item for sale on craigslist or w/e
- scammer contacts asking if a check is ok
- scammer then asks if they can write a check for more than the agreed-upon price and for the seller to give them the overage back as cash, often with some excuse about it being an out-of-state bank, they don't have a card and need some cash for something else, or whatever.
- scammer gives check, gets cash and item, and bounces
- guess what the check does, too
ANY kind of structure where you supposedly get money but have to give some of it back to someone should twig your scam radar, frankly.
Reblogging because some people need to refresh their scam radar, or start building theirs. I see far too many people fall for traps, and don't dare say for a second "this will never happen to me" because all it takes is a momentary lapse in judgement.
This also applies to job offers that send you a check to buy supplies.
if the rumours are true and Tumblr does end up shutting down at least we'll leave a legacy of [checks notes] making up a movie and [squints] getting the f slur to chart
