For those not in the know, there's a scam going on Discord at the moment where the scammer joins a #VRChat related Discord and then adds/DM everyone with the offer to make them a custom avatar. They will then link to a fake/stolen portfolio before taking your money and running.
Conversation flow is usually:
- "How are you?"
- "Do you stream or play vrchat?"
- Introduces themselves as an artist, offers a custom avatar job, may beg and say they need the money.
- Link to portfolio. Quick image comparison will verify it's stolen images.
Report them to the admins in your "mutual servers" to boot them out.
