WARNING: Discord/Telegram impersonator!
5 months ago
Just got the heads up that someone is attempting to impersonate me on discord. As a reminder, (outside of a local furry discord), I never use discord for socializing and will only contact you for work if you have directly asked me to via the signup form. In that case, absolutely feel free to note me here or on patreon to verify.
The impersonator seems to have the handle '@ruaidriart'. This is not me. Ignore any attempts to communicate from this person.
I've been made aware it's being tried on telegram as well. I also don't add people to telegram randomly- be vigilant folks, and don't be afraid to double-check here.
As a reminder, a few things-
I always use actual invoices when sending payment requests via paypal (I don't 100% know why that's important but apparently it is and so I do, hah)
I also currently only use paypal for payments.
If it's a YCH on FA, I'll always send you a comment on the bid first letting you know that you won, and it will be telling you to note me, so double check that before doing anything and be suspicious of any notes you get around the end of a YCH.
Be careful out there folks, lotta people want to separate you from your money!

Crisp and clean and no caffeine.
i may have casted it... what does it do?
With the recent t*l*np*w drama the artists who used F&F ended up losing their money to the chargebacks.
Glad though it’s been caught early.
But I am biased and show off my collection to everyone I can, so :3
This is just general digital security advice honestly, never click links, always go through original domains (eg if you get an email/link from twitter, navigate to twitter yourself, dont click the link.) Especially now that mirrored domains are a common thing, people are used to just blindly clicking links even with slightly different domains (Fxraffinity for example).
People suck. This is why so many of us fantasize about the existence of furries who fuck each other but don't fuck each other over.
I'm glad you found out, Ru.
We must have signed our names to a hundred NDAs, scanned our drivers licenses and passports, all kinds of information about us to people we could never trust. I'm sure, 100%, our data is being used even today, to scam other people, and it makes me feel terrible and sick.
Its the same dude who already tried to scam me by saying he is invidiasaunder
I love Telegram as a platform, but goddamn, it could use more people working in moderation instead of solely relying on automods.
Not much later I noted you about it, figured out it wasn't you interacted like that.
I have no idea how did they find me on Telegram. So I changed my username to avoid getting PM by random users over the world.

Sorry for the insults and rude words, but this situation is really very ridiculous and irritates me >:(
I condemn people who are so lazy and pathetic that they cheat others for money. I want to say - "Go and earn them honestly! Work at least a little"
But no worries, scammers have all the insults and rude words comin', give 'em heck, haha.
