Is This Normal or Am I Overthinking? Tapas DMs Edition

@BreeBaxter I mean, it should be fine if you're careful about it... Don't share any personal information or click on any links that are sent. And above all, be suspicious! If you think they are cat phishing, don't hesitate to report them. Otherwise, you do you? Just don't say I didn't warn you...

Did Bree finally crash from caffeine? The forums have been so quite today xD

Sounds sketchy. I know "ghost" activities are right up Bree's alley, but this sounds...off. Trust your gut; if it sounds "ish" it probably is. Stay safe out there.

i use to get a lot of that junk on deviant art they wanted me to be an artist for some disney card game, but I checked the link on a website that inspects for viruses and the URL had an address for a trojan virus ,so make sure to do some research when you see stuff like that

Disney Lorcana? Did that actually make it to stores? Last I saw they were being sued for copyright infringement...

3) This is what tipped me off the most. A regular well known cheque scam. They said they would get the final payment in cheque, forward it to me, I take my share and then forward the remainder to them lmfao.Then they msgd me about how I ghosted them

the weird payment thing has been a long time scam and not just targeted at artists (think those phone calls or emails with folks claiming to be the irs) so it's one of the main things i look out for if conversation even manages to get that far

yeah i've seen some copy's around comicbook shops and electronic stores

@Krysteena I have to wonder if you even read the post. 🧐 This is not a promotional thread, so if you have nothing relevant to say, please refrain from dropping your link.

@BreeBaxter Maybe try for Cox kind of response.

"Terminally online huh?"

"In this day and age, you're not? What grandchild would want to visit you?"
