WHAT? My Art is Worth $60,000? Artists Need to Avoid this NFT Art Scam! #shorts

#shorts
Selling online as an artist? You might be approached by one of those NFT gurus. Beware! They might be scams!

This is a perfect example I found on Facebook. An NFT guru approached an artist, telling her to list her artwork on one of the platforms and potentially make tens of thousands of dollars. It sounds like an opportunity of a lifetime! It sounds too good to be true. How could this person evaluate your work without asking for any information about you or your art? They want you to pay for the $300 'gas fee' as well as give your authorization to sell your art as NFTs. By now you might see that it's probably a scam.

Thank you …. Cause someone just DM me saying they wanted me to sell my work to them …. So I came straight to YouTube to see if there are scammers out there

I don't know if the NFTS scammers aren't there so artists would just give up. Artists are not getting contacted by anyone who would consider their work but NFT scammers contact artists non stop. Do not go to any websites they send you. They're fake websites. Do not correspond with them via any email about anything. I had about 30 scammers contact me from different platforms. All turned out to be scammers.

Haha, never got a DM wanting to buy my art. They probably can't figure out what I'm doing or don't like it. Bye bye scammers. Thanks for sharing truth to the unsuspecting.

thnk u for making this video, some random girl just started sending me messenges yesterday, asking if my art is on sale. I neve did sale my art, but i thought that it could be cool if she liked it, but it seemed weird, because she was really incisive. Them she offered me 45, 000 i thought that was some error and she meant 45.00 dollars, them she started talking about supremeart thing, that i could put my art there and another collectors like her could have a mint, so keeping in mind that the value was 45.00 not 45, 00, even when i asked her if she did some misunderstanding, she didnt answer. When i started searching for supremeart, them i just found articles about scams and them found u. This whole story was to say, thank u.

Gas fees and royalties have nothing to do with each other. They wrote total nonsense at the end. This is targeted at those who are totally unfamiliar with all this. And the broken English is just so terrible. Right someone who writes like they're illiterate will pay $60k for something.

Im a local artist in the southern Philippines, the same thing is happening to me rn, the guy asked me to list it on opensea for 4ETH each and theres two of em, and thats a lot of money in my country. He says to make a metamask wallet for the opensea account and the payment is automatic

I received the messages exactly same what you said here and l figured they were scam. I blocked them and reported them. I also received some emails, after l prayed God told me, it’s temptations and l blocked their emails. Art world are so many scammers.

I just got a message from an “nft enthusiast” with an nft pfp on deviantart who just asked to confirm if the art on my page is mine. So thanks for this. I always find these types of people sketchy or iffy
