Person whose nickname is "towobi" contacted me about my auction.
Here is they PayPal that they sent :
Hope this helps. I hope this ends soon and I am very sorry if you are a victim of these actions :<
This is also happening on furaffinity and deviantart, so be careful there too.
while usually I don’t request people spread the word, the hackers are confirming this scam IS working, so if you could make a bulletin and link this thread, it might stop more people from falling for it. Remember to stay safe and educated.
keep an eye out for the PayPal name [email protected] - report this PayPal user. It’s the one constant across every hacked account.
Here’s a list of artists who’ve been affected so far, as we know. Please make sure to go support them properly.
mercuriym - Grainy - Chaotic-AB - TehStarKat - Sephi - wovens - dilnyan - atra - KopiKat - wishful - asht0n - darling - rofeal - 8balls - woopleele -
Please be careful. I was bidding on a character and it seems that this user is making character profiles and responding IC to people in bids to try and scam them out of their money.
Report their PayPal if you can.
How the scam works
User in question makes a character profile with the avatar of the actual seller and their username. They will reply IC as the real seller to your comments.
I also got a strange dm from the user before any of this happened - titled “1” with the message just reading “1”. Gave me the creeps, so I’m changing my password.

they're account got closed btw! i noticed after they commented on my freebie Thread asking for a character. the transfer was pending so luckily they couldnt get their hands on the character i was gonna send over.
hi, just wanted to leave a comment because this same scammer effectively scammed two bidders by impersonating me and dming them saying they won. the fake account is closed now, but they used the mrgin paypal as well as [email protected] if that helps at all going forward. this is honestly disturbing and disgusting :/
