ngl there is alot of scammers on here that want to steal your money and your time. Just for everyone to know. I am victim of Zayden Cruz (a scammer who I caught). he scammed me for an art for my sona in 2023 and he tried to block me from speaking about my situation. He got banned on here but the problem is I have still a pending money on my PayPal account. I contacted PayPal to fix this. I haven't gotten any emails from PayPal about my issue I think that they just ignored me at all. The fact that the scammer Zayden Cruz got away with that is crazy still not banned on artstation the fact that most of his work is just stolen from other artists or popular websites on the internet #fediverse #community
