I feel disgusting even having to post this. As a human. As a MOTHER I am disgusted.
Beware of @holybrethen ! They reached out wanting an art commission and sent me two images of children that I do not feel comfortable posting, even with their faces blocked out, out of fear the emoji or whatever could be removed.
They claimed these images were their children but I felt someone was off. I google searched the images and found an exact match of one of the two images. It was taken from a mother’s page on TikTok. I have reached out to this mother to let her know her daughter’s picture is being used.
I’ve been scammed on here before. But this is the lowest of the low. And I meant it when I said: there’s a special place in hell for you @holybrethen
Please share so people know of this person and this scam!
Do not send hate, harassment or any kind of abuse towards the parties involved. This isn't a callout, but if you do commissions, watch out for a potential client calling herself Nitzan Alexandra Nudelman.
She's stolen art, claimed it as her own then had it tattooed after not paying the artists, and she stole Dean D’monic’s memorial tattoo for his husband.
the tattoo artist Deanna Marie initially claimed she thought Nitzan had permission to use the images, but has since doubled down that the design is her own original work, despite having traced the design by @i-am-the-blue-sunshine and BelleNoire_Tattoo, and Dean’s Memorial tattoo.
edit as of 08/15/2021: Deanna has taken responsibility for copying the images since but claimed she didn’t seen anything wrong with it until people started calling her out.
Receipts below paired with Dean’s posts on the matter.
DEAN’S POST
Additionally, when Blue warned Nitzan of a callout post here on tumblr, was the only time that Nitzan brought up the tattoo, and claimed that she went with a different artist and design, not bringing up that she’d still be using the base of polaroid's paired over a shipping necklace
EXCEPT, that Nitzan didn’t pay Blue. Nitzan got Blue’s rates, ghosted and then told them she was going with a different design. Blue only blocked her after she posted the finished product. If Nitzan had meant to pay them, she had ample time before this. The problem isn’t even just that she didn’t pay them, but that she stole the art and only decided to pay them when she got called out.
I’m sorry that Nitzan is having anxiety over this, but that’s not an excuse for something that took weeks or even months to plan and execute, without once stepping back and saying ‘is this okay’?
so yeah, to close, don’t send hate, abuse or in any way harrass Nitzan or Deanna, but don’t accept commissions from Nitzan and don’t commission Deanna.
Making this beware for Sonia Mughal (FB profile: https://www.facebook.com/sonia.mughal.9026040)
This woman is a commission scammer. I've personally had an encounter with her.
She asked me to make an expensive painting, and when it was nearly finished, she refused to pay me for it, claiming it was not detailed enough. When I informed her I'd increase the price, she started being rude, demanding and essentially harassing me. Turns out she wasn't able to pay the initial price agreed on (for the first version of the artwork).
Now I have received messages from other artists showing proof that she has traced over my artwork and is using it to get other artists to paint over it for less than what we initially agreed on, still refusing payment upfront.
Has provided potentially fake phone numbers and e-mail addresses when asked for payment.
Has admitted to having scammed at least three artists in a similar way. Screenshots of the traced art and my (watermarked as unpaid samples) art as proof attached.
I'd recommend no artist work with her as she's incredibly rude and demanding. I can send the full chats in PMs if anyone needs more proof.
FA User TanglyLenny is doing a bunch of chargebacks on artists.
He’s disabled his FA but you can find his Twitter here. You could see all the artists he fucked over on his page.
He has chargebacked my gf, MissVTheLoser, for $25 (Over $45 and will put us in negatives if the dispute goes through) but other artists for a larger sum of money.
Proof of charge-back:
Proof it’s his email:
He’s claimed he no longer has access to his Paypal
He has is phone number on his twitter which we’ve contacted before after he blatantly ignored his FA messages. Which he admitted to being a minor. So he’s underage and buying NSFW commissions which makes matters even worse.
He’s gone and disabled his FA and blocked MissV on Twittter
I am however not blocked and still trying to get answers out of him.
I’m aware we cannot accept his money anymore since he is underage. The money is the least of my issues. I’m making this post as a beware for furry artist to watch out and never accept this person as a client because he is underage and has scammed a bunch of artists out of large sums of money.
I believe it may have been some kid who took his parents credit card. I have no proof of that but he’s bought some expensive stuff and the parents might have noticed and issued a chargeback. I can’t know for sure since he seems to just be blocking people and running away.
Sad he gets to keep all the art though :/ And artists are out of money they can’t accept even if they win the Paypal dispute.
I'll try to keep this short. I didn't (and still don't) want to make a post like this but felt inclined to warn others who might want to commission or trade with the artist above.
Getting straight to the point: I commissioned theyaoidevil on Toyhouse December 25th, 2024 for custom character merch items and have yet to receive any work in progress photos or a (later requested) refund. I was ignored when asking him for updates on Toyhouse, alerted by another user about the artists past transactions/trades, and strung along when I messaged his Etsy storefront PR3TTYGUTZ. While I was waiting for my commission he took VGen orders, added countless new items to Etsy, and started tabling at conventions.
The rest of the post will be under Keep reading and will include screenshots of messages, transaction details, etc. His account on Toyhouse was closed sometime this year (which, y'know, awesome /s) so unfortunately the earlier interactions can no longer be viewed publicly. If this is where we part, please be cautious when contacting this artist for custom artwork and thank you for reading.
Before we start, here is a list of relevant accounts/links:
theyaoidevil - ToyHouse, currently closed. Where the transaction happened.
PR3TTYGUTZ - Etsy storefront, currently on break. Where I last messaged him and asked for a refund.
PR3TTYGUTZ - Linktree. Where I found their VGen page, Etsy storefront, and Instagram (that shows he started tabling).
Items promised and early interactions
The items promised were 2 buttons, a sticker, charm, notecard illustration, and 'extra surprises.' Payment of $45 was sent December 25th, 2024, the same day my request was made. The warning at the beginning of my request message was added just shy of a year later on November 13th, 2025.
Due to the holiday season and no response to my "money sent" message 3 weeks before, I messaged him on January 17th, 2025 asking if he received my payment. The next day it's confirmed that I successfully placed my order and am in queue. I later request an update 3 months later on April 5th and receive no response.
2. Alerted by another ToyHouse user
June 23rd, 2025 I'm messaged by another user (a complete stranger) regarding my merch order. They tell me that the artist has a track record of ghosting trade partners and commissioners.
ToyHouse is weird with messages and this was a long back and forth so the following conversation has been cut and put in chronological order.
They later asked if I was comfortable being included in a possible warning doc about the artist (I said yes and to include my username if they deem it necessary). I have no clue if this doc was ever made.
3. Reaching out via Etsy + where we currently stand
Shortly after the above messages, I reached out to theyaoidevil via his Etsy store PR3TTYGUTZ (I figured it would be the best way to reach out as he appeared to be actively fulfilling orders). He apologizes and says he 1. Forgot about the commission, 2. Is only now putting me in his queue, and 3. Will send work in progress shots within 24 hours.
The following images are made up of multiple screenshots as Etsy's messaging window is incredibly small.
I never received a WIP or a message regarding one on either of his accounts. I sent another request for an update on October 9th, 2025 that went unanswered.
The following is the last 'conversation' we had (March 1st - 16th, 2026) as well as my latest message sent yesterday. I asked for a refund, the artist agreed, and then a month passed before I got fed up.
...So yeah, that's what happened and where we're at. Please don't harass this artist, call him names, anything like that. He was always polite during our communication and I genuinely hope/wish him well, but this was very frustrating. My last message is unlike anything I've sent to another artist before - I feel like a jerk but I needed my feelings to be known. I didn't want to make this post because...well, I mean...who the hell wants to write about a frustrating experience? To reveal a (semi-)private transaction with someone they thought would come through? I don't know.
I acknowledge that I should've sent the money via Goods and Services and asked for updates more consistently, but I try to be as patient and forgiving as possible when purchasing custom art (also I too am forgetful!). I'm pretty forgiving when it comes to these kinds of things and consider my money gone no matter what after sending an artist payment. Work, bad mental health days, forgetfulness, low motivation, other projects etc. happen, Life Happens! This case just hit me differently for some reason. I think I'm getting older. -_- Deep down I know I'd rather have the items originally promised but I don't want this dance to continue, it bums me out.
I don't want pity or notes or whatever, I just want to warn others. If we work things out and/or reach a satisfying conclusion I'll update the post and make it known in the comments + via reblog. Thanks for reading if you did.
<b> Who:</b> Jarred Nault/Timberlock. He also goes by Bittercake, Jarred FromCanada and FluffyFoxMuffin
His Furaffinity: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/jarredfromcanada
His Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/FF3DP/?fref=ts
<b>Where:</b> Mostly over facebook, text and Picarto.
<b>What: </b>
<b>PLEASE READ TO THE VERY END.</b>
Jarred is a local who first approached me over Facebook asking me for a commission on a tail and a badge. Everything went well, i got paid and he got his items. Eventually we became friends over time but something was a little off about him. He seemed very need, manipulative and often liked to call himself down. He refers to himself numerous times as “a fat kid”. Which i will point out <b>He is only 15. </b>
Here is some screencaps of a conversation between us when he started acting weird: http://imgur.com/a/rh2FX
He often makes claims his accounts got banned for “bullshit reasons” but truthfully its because of Harassment.
One day out of no where he totally lashed out on me for no reason and started calling me names and completely blackmailing me. I have yet to this day know why. I saw he was becoming friends with my friends, i tried to tell people numerous times to beware of him but of course “hes just a kid” so why would anyone worry?
OK so moving on.
About a year or so ago one of my friends became close to him. She invited him over a few times, he ate all her food and did nothing but whine and use all her stuff.
This part is where it gets VERY dark. Please read the following images to find out what happened to her. Read this then i will explain further. <b>NSFW WARNING.</b> http://imgur.com/a/hCThf
So leading up to current events. Jarred went and personally messaged everyone in our local furgroup calling them names. even if they didnt know him. He tries to start drama all the time. A person posted about it then thats when i tagged my friend in that post so she can tell them what hes like. Here is the post with all the comments. then of course hers, which you saw previously. http://imgur.com/a/jfrSa
Police were involved but because hes a minor he was not charged and simply thrown into counseling. Now what you see here is him admitting to his defeat and wanting my friend to forgive him. He has texted her on numerous different phones so she would look at the random numbers. Pics: http://imgur.com/a/0muj9
Another thing he would do is pretend to not be himself and make up fake personas. I stream with my friends in a <b>ADULT</b> furry stream, he is a minor. He made an account and joined the stream, trying to get art from my friend by wanting to meet up with them in person and exchange for something he would make out of 3D printing. He randomly brought up “himself” out of the blue in the stream, which lead to my friend instantly blocking him. He has a very unhealthy obsession with her and he tries to reach her on every social media site possible. He even used her number as a contact number for his prescriptions for the local pharmacy. Trust me she is getting a new number. Here is the conversation from Picarto: http://imgur.com/a/Ig1YV and here: http://imgur.com/a/wL8Mq
Awhile back we had a friend forma group chat with a bunch of people who were also involved in his bull. She took Jarred under her wing and bought him food and took him out constantly. He again, turned around and started lashing out. <b>NSFW/TRIGGER WARNING</b>,Here is what was said: http://imgur.com/a/tyfNK
I know what you’re probably thinking. “oh just ignore him or go to the police.” <b>WE. HAVE. TRIED. EVERYTHING.</b> This is the only thing left we can do, is make bewares. friendly REMINDER. Rape can happen to anyone at any age, and Jarred is like twice the size of my friend.
So far hes a rapist, manipulative, bully, obsessed with my friend. and flatout scum.
Here is my friends explaining more to a facebook group admin: http://imgur.com/a/tTcBy
<b>so where does the “artist beware” part come in?
</b>
Right Here:
after doing a quick search i found he got people to post in facebook furry groups, to add him on his new account. This rung alarm bells in my head. I immediately went and told them to block him, of course within private message i explained what happened to my friend and then she came forward about Jarred flirting with them and making them uncomfortable. http://imgur.com/a/EoIyo
The other person (who does not want to be named or have screencaps posted even with the names drawn out) Claimed to have ordered a 3D printed piece from him. (He is a minor and in Canada it is illegal to accept commissions underage.) He never received the piece. He is also using templates which are stolen.
Overall im glad to put this out there. Do i care if he contacts me once he sees this. Nope. Is my friend going to police again? Damn rights. A restraining order is in process.
here is his Facebook and page to look out for: http://imgur.com/a/HZmSd
Thank you for reading!
Message from Jarred Nault, added 04/07/2017
Too settle the bullshit and drama.This started in early summer of 2016.
I knew nick knight. Trying to get a comic from them. Over time we became friends. I realized nick was an introvert and convinced him to come to a furmeet! We had fun. I paid for his meal and he agreed too draw me porn.Over time we got to be close friends. We both disliked the same people and we had fun. Even so far as erotic role play, kissing, joke teasing, and lactation (WITH CONSENT). I had a fight with my parents. Nick and his friend kris convinced me that my parents where abusive towards me. When my parents where actually saving me from them. I stayed at nick for 3 days and made me seem crazy. He got me put in the crisis stabilization unit (3 to 5 days of no outside human contact. No technology. No nothing) Over our friendship i have given nick over 250$. I got nothing from that and after he got his money. I went over for the last time. Helped him get rid of his old spiders. His apartment door is impossible too close. So we got rid of the spiders. Ordered pizza. His cat got out so I helped get his cat back. Then after his friend gets off skype we talk about since what happened if we would become friends still. He said yes and then next day. He blocked me. I asked why and we got into a fight. Then the claims came out of thin air. No proof. No nothing to properly back it up besides his friends white knighting him. I did not have Facebook for awhile and he thought i hacked his account even though I don’t know how too.He claims i have used and abused people. Way way when i started in the fandom i did. But when you put someone like ne in a dark place for half a fucking year. Then know how too push my buttons. Ofcourse nick will get away with that shit. Because he knows how to make me look bad. He knew i had some sort of aspurgers syndrome and mental illness. He knew he could take advantage of me.If i did hurt him or any of his firends in anyway. I truly am sorry. I want to make shit better if I did.
Yet if you make me look bad. I dont wanna deal with shit.
