!Art Fraud Notice!
Someone has been stealing art/animations from me and other artists and has been posting it to a fake site and trying to charge for the content being stolen so they can acquire credit card info. (hope that makes sense.)
And I believe they have been making you tube and DA accounts to try and promote it.
I just want to bring attention to this to try and get everyone to understand that it is fraud, and to keep as many of you from getting conned essentially. I want folks to stay safe.
The site is something like 'vorecompv.store'. I did try and find ways to deal with it myself, however my actions have not given any significant results.
So, be mindful of what sites you visit and stay aware and maybe spread the word so no one falls victim to it.
Thank you.

I've seen like 9 accounts that have been doing this on DA and are just mass stealing art. I've tried reporting them. Sometimes its successful, but DA tends to be slow at enforcing its rules/reports.
I'vw already reported several on DA and told them the actual artists patreons in the comment section.
This has gotta stop, Art theft is a serious issue.
Why is art thievery only increasing nowadays? This is genuinely annoying to hear. I'm sorry dude
Damn sorry for everyone arts and videos being stolen
God, fuck, these people suck ass and I hope they get skinned alive
I get access to all of your amazing animations for less than a 12 pack of coke, which is triple the enjoyment of said beverage, yet this bozo has the gall to try and take honest business away? I hate the internet so much.
Damn, like wow, whoever that is, they are a scumbag. I hate art thieves!
Thanks for the info fudgeman!
