LaurenAshleyArt is a Scam Artist ::UPDATE FEB. 29::

Feb 22, 2012 17:51

Not drama, but I wanted to get this out there, as this has really been bugging me. I'm not sure where else to post it besides here and FTW, so if anybody has any recommendations about comms where this should go, that'd be really helpful.

So, some folks may remember laurenashleyart/LaurenAshley/SashaDobie/CynthiaSophia/TotallyTrouble from that whole confusing artists_beware ( Read more... )

I can get caps of the bad_fur post if you want.

She came to me a long time ago about making her a new head for the hummingbird suit. We went back and forth a lot, and I spent a while trying to figure out how to make it how she wanted with a 2 ft beak. Then she never got back to me. Not that I really lost anything, but still, annoying.

I didn't see the bad_fur post, but I'd appreciate caps if possible.

Breakspire posted the cap over in my cross-post to FurryTrainWreck. Forgot to add it into the op, my bad! xD

Thanks. It might seem a bit arbitrary since she's not breaking the rules, but I'm going to give her a posting ban in bad_fur for this one. For the moment anyway. This is all a bit too dodgy and she doesn't need another fursuit venue to be playing with.

This. My friend almost commissioned her until she stopped replying back to her.

Yeah, it didn't come out that Lauren and Sasha were the same person until she made that post in A_B about her troubles re-selling the hummingbird fursuit.

As an aside she just tried to pull a fast one on me over her temp ban from bad_fur. Quote:

"I'm new to LiveJournal, too, so I could be doing something completely wrong as well, haha!"

Her SashaDobie account has existed since 2009. I'm not sure who she thinks she's kidding but that just *stinks*.

Oh. I recently did business with her and she was as sweet as pie to me.

What the hell? >:[ I guess this sort of explains why she wouldn't go to A_B to post about that thing that other maker did to her.

She seemed like a nice person but I don't want to be friends with scammers.

She's commissioned me a bunch of times over the last few years and she's been nothing but pleasant to work with. Paid promptly, easy to work with and friendly.

That doesn't excuse the fact she has work owed to people from over 3 years ago though. I hope she'll make it right and either do the work or refund those waiting, it's a shame.
