So I'm not allowed to post names, AFAIK. But over the past few months there's been this one scammer targeting me from three different accounts. He types in broken, capitalization-free English, asks for muscle art of cartoon and video game characters, and deflects or ignores it whenever money is brought up. As soon as he told me "I'll send you the money when I have time," (improperly typed) but expected me to start drawing anyway, I knew something was up. That was a month or so ago, but now he tried again tonight. His two previous accounts were suspended, but his current one is still active (though I've just reported it in a trouble ticket).

The thing is, both times I've confronted him about scamming me he's outright admitted to it, and this time he even admitted to being the same person and running his scam "a lot!" He also said it was because - in addition to having no money - "people who pay for porn are just sad and alone." Right. As opposed to people who beg for or steal that same porn, which clearly makes them cool :p

So be on the lookout for suspicious badly-written notes that seem like they're from a scammer, probably a kid, who wants you to draw muscle art before he pays you.
