 Why would anyone fall for this Picasso scam?

  OK, don’t laugh, but there’s a peculiar WoW Gold scam going FUT Coins where fake artists are promising to deliver illustrations in exchange for WoW Gold.

  Creativity truly knows no bounds for the perpetually cash-strapped. This is definitely one of the odder scams I’ve see in a long while.

  If you’re scratching your head about this one (like I was just a couple of days ago), there’s apparently an underground trade flourishing for toon portraits. WoW players who get so attached to their virtual avatars seek out illustrators that will replicate, say, the glory of their hunter decked out in Season 9 PVP gear.

  I can see the allure of immortalizing your toon in digital or real canvas. So did the scammers.

  The scheme starts with a request for advance commissions to the tune of thousands of WoW Gold. Once payment is made, the “artist” disappears into thin air.

  Why would anyone fall for this Picasso scam? I’ve talked to one victim (who chose to stay anonymous for sheer embarrassment) who said the phony artist looked credible enough, even showing him a website filled with an impressive portfolio.

  But after being scammed, the victim checked back at the website and realized that the phony artist was just passing off the work there as his own.

  Here are some pretty obvious tips to avoid getting scammed yourself:

  DO NOT trade your WoW Gold before receiving the commission. Follow this and the two other reminders should be unnecessary.  www.coininfifa.com

  Request the artist to send you other sample works via e-mail , preferably from an address carrying the domain of the website he showed you.

  If you found the artist via communities like DeviantArt, ask him to confirm his ownership of the showcase account by sending a private message.

  Please remember that like WoW Gold buying, WoW Gold commissioning is technically against the Blizzard TOU policy so there is a chance for you to be tagged as engaging in suspicious WoW Gold trading. So if you’re not FUT 15 Coins to risk it, just be contented with hi-res screenshots of your toon, OK?

Many people wonder how someone can get around the dark web. Well, for one thing, there is no actual "web" because everything is simply not viewed in the same manner as a website would be.  dark web
