SUCKS TO POST THIS but if yall are familiar with this person "Hoshi Hyena" (st4r.chomp on tiktok) they've been caught in 4K stealing a $200 handmade worm-on-a-string bag my friend was selling at FWA this weekend.
Hoshi just grabbed it off the wall and casually walked away with it like they do this all the time, and i assume they do given their behavior and the way they confidently lied to my friend's face when he initially approached them about it. they didn't notice the security camera pointed directly at them from the opposite booth lol... now they're panicking and deleting comments from people shaming them.
they have since returned the bag to my friend at FWA but ONLY because of that camera footage. the fact remains Hoshi had NO qualms whatsoever about stealing a $200 piece of art from broke queer artists and was confident they'd get away with it, until they didn't. who knows what they took from other booths without cameras.
so if you're a furry or in furry spaces keep an eye out for Hoshi Hyena/st4r.chomp (they might go by Werm in some places) (they'll definitely rebrand after this anyway). as of right now they've been banned from FWA for 1 year.
EDIT: Hoshi is now trying to frame the situation as if the worm was lost somehow and they simply found and graciously returned it....... yeah this person sucks lol
