foxbunsales ALDHDKSLAJDDHS DITTO WHEN I SAW UR NAME I GOT UPSET lmaoooo
EDIT: Wow, okay. This person is a known scammer and has a post on artists beware about her. She also has multiple other accounts. This is just awful.
A few months ago, I took a commissions offer from @foxybun (their account is closed) under the account @bunbuns-species . (also under the name Gazersdex) to draw an unspecifed amount of reference sheets. I say unspecified because the creator had three characters that each had three different forms— human, anthro, and feral. i was originally told to draw one reference sheet for each to come out to nine sheets.
We discussed payment and the amount of art i would be making. They were kind of difficult to communicate with, but I worked through it.
At first, things were going well. I requested a 100$ deposit to prove they were legitimate, and they paid it. created these reference sheets for them quickly. They had a lot of edit requests as well. In any case, I got paid what I was owed. I received two payments for the first two reference sheets, coming out to about 150$ or so. Since they wanted NSFW reference sheets as well, I charged extra for those edits. These are the sheets I have made for them in all (the SFW Ones)
I was paid for the first two. I sent the second two and asked for payment, and received these messages. The dates of when they were sent are featured in the screenshot.
(It also includes a miscommunication on how many reference sheets they would purchase from me. I can work with that.)
What I couldn’t work with was repeated delays of payment. It had been almost two months since I have created and sent them this art, and I haven’t received any payment.
This most recent message has not been seen by them. When I checked their Foxybun account (the one that I know is theirs because the character I drew is the icon) it was closed. I fear that this account may close as well, but I will at least have their email(s) to contact them.
I have never been in this situation before, and I don’t know where to go from here. . I have a big discount on my commissions right now, and details can be found here if you are interested.
My slots are all open and I really need the work. Thanks for reading. Be conscious of this person.
UPDATE:
Atrocious spelling errors aside, they realized that there may be consequences for their actions and actually got in contact with me. This was our conversation.
They are attempting to continue the lie, shift blame, and think I will forget it. I have also found multiple other accounts in other places under their name, mostly on Instagram. They aren’t active there, but just in case. Be on the lookout for anyone similar.
Please report this person As well. I don’t want any other unfortunate artist to go what I have gone through.
UPDATE 2: They blocked me.
foxbunsales Just look out for any alts they've got, be it here or discord, even furaffinity [that one is still up. Here's the account. beyer.m.alex on furaffinity]. Thanks to them, I decided to go and get a T.O.S setup. Stay safe peeps, dont let the little runt take ya down!
Actually I think it was, till they deleted their account that is. If I check the og message they sent me, its now set to "Bunbuns-species" on toyhouse.
The beyer account has updated their account to a small extent, showing the possibly new discord name, email, and updated the pfp to their foxbun(Rae) character. Myself and another person have set up our journals with a beware on deviantart to try to keep others from being scammed. If I find any more information, I'll be sure to let you guys know! Stay safe and I hope this helps!
SleepyChai thank you so much for the info! Do you mind sending me the updated info about the scammer
Saltminer sure! It's all over their page, they just completely gave themselves away, stupid move but its good that they did so now people get further warnings about them! Here's the page, here's the journal I found as a beware, and here's my journal(I included the screenshots I took). Hope it helps!
Looks like another update to the name, they are now moonlitheart#6316 on discord, checked my dms to check for any changes. It's got the pantherwolf set up as pfp, definitely new art of her. Stay safe!
SleepyChai thanks for the update. Good to know that they are still out there so we can keep tabs on them.
