First I want to apologize to the artist I’ve caused this headache and unwarranted problems. I wanted so badly to give them an update yesterday but banks are closed on Sunday. I went in today, my card and bank account have been frozen. I’m not sure whay but Teller gave me a few ideas. Firstly the bank might suspect fraud. With a large sum of money going across seas in an unverified PayPal account (which is my own fault for not verifying my PayPal account) it might have altered some red flags in my banks system. For those who suspect I have the money I don’t. https://imgur.com/a/uUumSde I have received no money back from PayPal and my bank account is frozen. I talked with a friend who’s a teller and they are allowed to freeze my account post 9/11 if there is suspicious activity.
Anyways believe my story or not. What is mostly important and I can insure I will pay these artist the correct and money I owe them for the drawings. It is their money not mine. I don’t know how long it will take but till I get it back I will be removing the art from my fa till they’ve all been given back the money they rightfully deserve. I’m secretly sorry the headache I’ve caused. If anyone or artists want to reach out to me you can message me on telegram sylas
For those spreading hate on my fa journal and shout. It does nothing, it doesn’t help the artists or me. I’m trying to focus on the problem and the hate messages are distracting me.
Please contact me if you’re an artist so we can have strong communication to fix the problem. It isn’t me vs the artist it’s us vs the problem. I love this community. I’m not hiding or running away I’m trying to fix the problem at hand. I hope you all understand

I took notice of the AUD so you must be dealing with an Australian bank. As for paypal, yes, if you decided to carelessly spend shit tons of money, without being verified. That is a red flag. To be 100% with me, all the money for the commissions was your hard earnt money?? I ask this as it can also happen if your using a Credit card and not a DEBIT card thats your money, playing with the banks money will get you in trouble.
Reason I ask this is if you are with commonwealth or bank of melbourne, BankSA, NAB etc etc, they all have the power to get your money back or you go and confirm it was you who sent the money.
Then go to Paypal, call them up, confirm with them also, and verify with your real name as PayPal acts exactly like as if they were a bank, PLEASE verify ASAP call PayPal after confirming your transactions with your bank, and have the disputes taken away once sorted. These artists all worked very hard and such a accident/situation like this will make any artist nervous. Please do the right thing.
