Well, after years of getting commissions I had someone actually impersonate an artist I won a YCH from. The artist I've commissioned before, and we've only ever conversed through FA Notes... and I've only ever paid them using a specific payment service...

For the first time the "artist" friended me on Discord, using the real artist's name/profile picture etc. They tried to get me to pay them through Paypal (which the actual artist has never used before), urging me to only use "Friends and Family" (so I can't dispute the charge). Like... c'mon... the real artist I won the YCH from had already noted me on FA with the proper payment details, like they always do, so I immediately knew the person on Discord was an impersonator.

I reported the person on Discord for impersonating a business/scamming people, and I got their Paypal email so I could report them on Paypal as well... so that's all I can do. Sadly I have no clue what FA account they're using to keep tabs on YCHes and such. 🙄
