So thankfully this doesn't happen to me very often, but recently I had a commissioner welch on payment, and they seem to be a bit of a serial offender when it comes to this so I thought I would put the word out.
So I was checking Kik earlier today, and I got a message from an unknown contact -- let's call her Betty Boobs. Anyway, this girl started trying to get me to go to her (doubtlessly malware-ridden) webcam show, and I decided to have a little fun with her. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any screenshots from my phone, but I've transcribed the whole thing here for your entertainment!
Her: wanna chat with a bored, single 23/f?
Yeah not a scammer at all these are isolated cases of just misscomunication. First this Frocto person our "RP" consisted of about a week and more inactiveness on our ends so obviously im not gonna wanna give up money for something that wasn't completed then multiple things i just didn't like yet they put in anyway pfps used for tuppers weird thing about hyper which was a little eh iffy for me who wanted them more canonical ect
It so happens that I just wrote and published another little bit of ponyfic: Starlight Glimmer vs. ERS Scammers. 
I've been getting an absolute tonne of endless spam and scam comments lately from a Spanish user on YT. It's gotten way out of hand and I wanted to know if anybody else has encountered this user - Scammer's YT Channel Main Page
So on Monday, I got an invitation to some group called "Save My Little Pony". I'm not gonna say who the person was who invited me, but I kindly declined and DMed him about it. The message was simply this:
Blog Number 69: A Coronavirus Update Edition
It's important to remember: a virus is not your only enemy in an outbreak. Some people will take advantage of the uncertainty and panic (and even altruism) to scam you. Stay safe online by following the W.H.O.'s guidelines below!
I got good news and bad.
First: it feels pretty awesome to finally get my money back in full with thanks to my bank after opening up a debit card dispute. The lines were busy and I was transferred through about four or five different people just to get to the correct department. I was on the phone for two minutes under an hour to get the entire thing sorted, but I'm so glad it worked out.
Blog Number 70: Coronavirus Fund Edition
Just a brief message this time, because this info might have been buried somewhat in the previous blog post.
I also want to let people know there is a way to donate safely to the World Health Organization if you want to. That's the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund. A link directly to the official site is included below:
