PSA - SCAMMER - IKASHIMA ( Possible resolution pag

Posted 7 years, 1 month ago (Edited 6 years, 10 months ago) by Muley

:EDIT: Ikashima has issued an appology post on page 8, for anyone interested in seeing.


This is a post to alert you guys that there's been someone who's been "commissioning" artists, only to have charged back the payments after receiving the majority of their art.
There's no way to get back the money once the dispute goes out, as paypal will instantly refund that user "their money" even if you give receipts of your transaction.

The user in question currently is http://toyhou.se/Ikashima
:EDIT: their DA username was meltymilks, but the account has since today been deactivated.

They commissioned several artists the past two days, and all have receive chargeback to their accounts.
They had a deviantart, but that account seems to have been deactivated.
and they are not responding to pms.

Some people, like myself, have already spent the money they rceived, so now have a huge deficit in their paypal balance. Which means any commissions we do going forward, are solely going into paying off the "debt" we now owe paypal.

This is truely rude and unfair to the artists who've put in the effort to draw these pieces, AND who're now out the money.

If you have more to share on this subject, or know any other users who've done this in the past while, please share in the comments, so that everyone can be made aware of the situation.

:EDIT:  with an update to the situation.

Sooo, this is getting even worse, not only are just other artists coming forward letting us know they got scammed too, the adopt creators of the characters this person “purchased” ALSO got charged back.

The adopt artist so far that’ve gotten scammed were :
http://aoiku.deviantart.com/
http://soleilrune.deviantart.com/

(~surprise~)
So, now there’s an unpaid and now owner-less adopt floating around, with a butt ton of unpaid for art of it.

Just…. amazing…

Just chiming in to say i was affected as well.

Since I didn't start work yet and don't really have any losses, I just refunded for the chargeback yesterday.

Hope the artists with done work and adopt creators get a solution though.

Bump!
