    I’ve known a few artists and have long held the belief that the art being produced is secondary to the artist themselves.

    Fraud, great

    Did you report them to their local authorities yet?

      real talk, how do you report someone in a different country to authorities? Especially with such a borderline specific reason like lying about where you live to get more clients, he’s still doing the work after all

        Call their local police office. For something like this, literally nothing will happen. Ever. No matter what. Online fraud is damn near unenforced.

          Why would this even classify as fraud? Lying about where you currently are on an internet profile isn’t a crime.

          The only possible case for fraud would be if the artist promised to use part of the money to help with Ukrainian efforts or whatever. Instead, he just played everyone by being vague, assuming all he did was change his location and open “emergency commissions”.

            Lying about who you are to solicitate money under a false pretense is absolutely fraud.

              That’s the catch, he wasn’t asking for money, he was offering his service. If I make an account on xitter and claim to be a Cambodian artist, is it fraud if people commission me because I’m not actually Cambodian, despite getting the art they asked for?

              It’s obviously misleading, but claiming fraud, legally speaking, needs more than just an unimportant detail being false

          I am not familiar with Brazilian law. But filing a form is quicker and easier than figuring out whether their enforcement agencies do their job

            If you denounced this to brazilian police they would have a laugh and probably say something on the lines of “stupid gringos”

              Okay, and I’d be able to say I did not do nothing

      I dont think this even remotely classifies as fraud. Its just scummy.

        That’s what fraud means, it’s a false perception.

          The comment was talking about “reporting to authorities” so this was about the legal definition of fraud, not the lexical one.

          I don’t think literally anywhere in the world would this actually be considered illegal.

        Threats? Really? Online?

          It’s a colloquialism, not a real threat of violence. It is similar to saying loose lips sink ships, but a more street oriented version.

      Do you remember people talking about that specific person or do you remember people talking about doing something like this themselves?

        About this specific case, that was at the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
