"Permission!!" Note Scam?
9 months ago
I just got a note from a random person who claimed to be watching me for a while (they literally began watching me 15 minutes ago lol) that joined November 1st and sent me the following:
"Hello! I’ve been following your arts and think they’re really amazing. I’d love to explore them further and use one as a reference for a new artwork I’m working on. Would you be okay with that?
I’m happy to compensate you, do you have any commission fees?"
This persons profile is blank and follows a ton of people for no reason, highly suspicious and reminds me of the typical twitter/discord poorly coded "can I buy your art" spambots

Ahhh... identical wording. I've gotten exactly the same message.
