Thank you so much.! Received an offer to buy 2 pieces of my art! Since I did not know much about NFT I said will research. It is a no non. Thx!!!

Not really sure how people easily fall for these scams… I just had an ‘art collector’, with a nice page and her own NFT website, offer me 30eth for three paintings, and asked me to mint on her website. She was nice and friendly- until I told her ‘transfer me 40% upfront and I’ll happily begin uploading’. She got pissed and then blocked by me

Great video Ness!! I want to say that even tho I have worked with 1-2 legit projects, yes 99.9% of them are scums! One piece of advice, always look for contracts as an artist, from legit people and generally stay away from things that you’ve never heard before and have zero information about, most of the scams are obvious!

Thank you very much for this video. Very helpful. I've got various scams lately as well, and wondered why on earth someone would pay thousands of dollars for some of my artwork as NFTs.

It happened to me last month. Too good to be true!!

I got an offer today, it just said they liked my art and wants to buy it as an NFT collection, I told em I have to think about and got to this video in my research about NFTs cuz I knew nothing about them.
Can you just upload them yourself and tell those people where to find em on the site to buy them? Maybe like this they can't scam you since if they're really interested they can just buy them from the original site from where you uploaded them.

Thank you so much for making this video 🙂, just helped me dodge a bullet. I was also approached by someone offering to buy my art as NFT, gotta make sure to decline that offer and thanks again 😁

[majdsaady]

Thank you, l I had so many offers just in this week. all had few red flags, but I want to confirm my suspensions 😊

[alexiusgray]

Thank you so much for this video! Really. I was uncertain with NFTs to begin with but this made my resolve in avoiding it all together that much stronger haha

[sansayabima]

Thank you for validating my suspicion, I did not fell for it since they offered 3 cripto for 4 of my art that was nothing special (I'm not being humble, they're just a quick lowpoly 3D render) 😂 for the record, I originally responding him hoping he was gonna do comission lol.

Also additional red flag : If you go to their profile, their bio would be tryhard convincing you they're real deal, something like "Art/NFT collector" or "Supporting small artist' and something personal like " A proud and loving dad" to indicate they're real person.

[lizmcqueen]

Thank you this has been SO helpful. You saved me $300

[nandhikavardhini]

Oh I am so very glad I found your video before too late

[Tht]

I clicked the link he sent me but I didn’t put the gas fee, so can he reach my information still?
