Be scam aware! THIS IS IMPORTANT
12 months ago
Someone posing as a potential "client" just attempted a phishing and refund scam over "PayPal"! Directed at me!
However, because I am scam aware I saw it and caught it before any information changed hands.
They posed as a client and sent me a "payment" followed by a fake email posing as PayPal from an gmail.com domain asking me to return the money that they had never sent. Caught it at the email.
There was also a login with PayPal button on this email that I did NOT click.
They have been reported to Telegram, PayPal, my bank and Deviantart (where they first reached out).
