I get pissed off every now and then when I see a reblog of a Kaijuno post so I’m gonna say it
Kaijuno is scamming. Kaijuno has used the same almost-evicted story consistently every month for the past few years and will often suicide bait for donations. I donated to Kaijuno TWICE before I noticed a fucking pattern.
Kaijuno also attempts to pass off AI art and apparently a fucking Heroforge screenshot as their own digital art. They’re also probably lying about being an astrophysicist. Most of Kaijuno’s posts are stolen screenshots from other platforms with zero credit given.
If you see an e-begging post from Kaijuno, don’t fucking donate to it. Kaijuno is the fucking reason I will NEVER donate to individuals who I don’t know again.
I don’t care if I get hate for this. If I can stop one person from getting scammed, it’s worth it.
Tumblr user Kaijuno is a scammer and a liar and I'm getting real sick of seeing her begging posts still doing rounds. You can read more about her scams and lies under the tags #kaijuno and #kaij. I'm well aware that this won't change anything, but if it makes just one more person to report and block her then I consider it a job well done.
To be 100% clear and honest with you all: I do follow her with my main account. The main reason why I do that, is that I am morbidly curious of where this trainwreck will end up in. Yes, I should just block her and be done with it. But I don't want to. The second reason is that sometimes I can warn people against donating money to this piece of shit scammer via anonymous asks.
So! Here's my science experiment! A collection of Kaijuno's begging posts in April. Please note that i do have a life and definitely didn't catch all of them and also that some may be posted twice because I definitely don't care enough to filter those ones out. That said, I did try to catch most individual begging and guilt tripping posts she made, even when they were identical to the previous ones.
My method was simply screenshotting all the posts that I saw and then grouping them together at the end of the month. Where I remembered to, I also screenshotted the time and date, and where I didn't, I added the date in later.
So buckle up, there's a lot of them.
First up: the infamous "gonna get kicked out" that she posts every month like clockwork. The May one just went up a few hours ago. Babygirl, eviction doesn't work like this.
Then we have a collection of "haven't eaten in two days". Caught it 6 times this month.
But of course, it would be suspicious if she starved two days every time, so there's 6 more posts about starving other random number of days.
The increasing bills thing is new, I think she first posted it in March, but I'm not entirely sure. Anyway, her bills increased 5 whole times in April. Damn girl. Even my government only increases taxes only twice a year at most.
Of course, can not forget about the general pity partying, guilt tripping, and subtle suicide baiting.
And last but not least! The outlier! Toilet paper!
She didn't use the tooth infection this month, sadly. She also didn't get locked out with her cat inside. And the doordashers all behaved nicely and didn't steal her groceries. Jess! You had so much potential to use these scams! I'm Flabbergasted that you didn't!
Anyway, that's it folks! Not sure if I want to put myself through doing that again lol
This matters to literally nobody but I did end up finding the original artist behind kaijunos AI generated mushroom ‘art.’ The artist is Jessica Elena, it looks like kaij just fed the original through an AI generate or something so that it wasn’t able to be traced back to the original.
I followed and looked up to kaijuno for probably like…8+ years until I found out it was all a grift like recently. I was inspired to study science in part by them and it’s sad to know that they probably never even like…did it. The only evidence is one poster they did in undergrad which is still pretty cool but to do nothing beyond that is…agh and then to claim that you have a doctorate degree is so messed up. I’m in two research groups now as a third year undergrad and I can’t imagine like…lying about doing more than that. It’s just so icky and sad, I think self study is valid. The academic system as it is, is horribly elitist and capitalistic, but being upfront about what you’re doing so you don’t mislead people is important too.
Anyway I’m excited to almost be done. I guess in hindsight middle school me should have known slightly better that maybe someone actively doing a grad program should not have had that much time to blog. I should be doing thermo problems instead of posting into the void and I have hardly a moment to breathe and I’m only an undergrad.
Kaijuno is scamming people. I am sending you this to warn you and others because their posts are designed to pull at heartstrings. They have posted the exact same image for months on end stating they are going to get evicted. Personally, I have seen this for over a year, but other sources say it has gone on longer. They consistently dismiss or block assistance that is monetary and suicide bait when donations slow. Please don't give your money to this person. Credentials: I work with folks facing eviction and this is not how eviction courts work at all. It can take max 3mo before you're out out based on the federal law in the US. I have let this go because I thought they got a new place and started over but that is not the case. I need to get the word out more.
Thank you for telling me. It started to look odd to me but I don't know how US laws work and I didn't want to assume anything.
I kind of lost a little sympathy when they mentioned they were unable to feed their cat her full allotment due to (alleged) money troubles. Emotional support animal or not, you are now an unfit pet owner and maybe you need to think about surrendering your pet
Documenting this here because I tried to reblog it, but she must have already deleted it. I took a screenshot, then went to her blog and it was gone. Whenever donations slow, she implies that she's going to die.
I know you mean well trying to help but just FYI Kaijuno aka Jess Peck is a liar and a scammer you can find more info about it by searching their blog name and scams she's also lying about her health her education her family money issues ect she also has made transphobic and ableist posts attacked people for questioning her or even those that donated to her and she's made posts elsewhere proud of scamming people and saying she'd be more open about her politics and what she really thinks bc she leans more center than left but that would hurt her ability to scam people out of money I'm just tyring to warn people bc she blocks a lot of people that call her out or warn others on her posts but she's been pulling this scam for years now saying she's being evicted every month and then the not eating gonna die needs a hospital a few times a month when she gets really desperate she threatens suicide or that she has a bad tooth infection or uses her cat she also steals a lot of her content and her art is ai stolen and it wasn't too long ago she was posting about how she had MS and that's why she walked with a cane and how she was gonna die soon then it came out she broke her foot slipping on the ice and that's why the cane she lies about so much if she were just doing it for attention like she used to do (then turn around and blame mental illness and addiction) I'd ignore it but she's harming people with her money scam so I feel I should warn people so they don't support her she was also bragging about fasting and taking weight loss meds on reddit while jumping on here saying she hadn't eaten bc she couldn't afford to and when she got caught she deleted her reddit account
holy shit, just looked into it and yeah it seems that at least the scamming and ai art stuff is true, thank you for telling me!! just blocked her
