Most of us know that this is a scam, but I'm aware that there may be people who are a bit more naive.

Is this person trying to scam me?

I was messaging someone on instagram about an art commission and I was about to follow through with it until I saw that the on their paypal was Dilawer Hussain and that their instagram account was created in April 2026.

Their primary area or drawing was Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss type art but said they'd be willing to draw an OC. (Mind you, they messaged ME first under one of my drawings on my profile). They asked if they could draw something for me and I declined because money is tight but then they offered to do it for 50 bucks and then I started considering it. At first I was just like "must just be a new/desperate art commissioner, I'll help a homie out".

After we setted the details, they sent me their paypal link with the above name on it and when i asked about it, they just said paypal gave them issues and that account was their brother's which made me more suspicious. I thought it was a bit sus so I backed out stating that I wasn't willing to go through unless I saw the art first but I understood if they didn't want to do. I wouldn't blame them if they were a real artist but i couldn't get past that gut feeling.

At the end they were pressing to do 30 up front and 20 after but I said I was firm. I also couldn't verify if their work was theirs because they didn't sign any of the art on their account (only 2 posts on the account, but they sent me 6 others in chat).

I'm still very new to how commissions work and digital art drawing myself so I am unsure of the whole situation. I was as polite as I could be but it felt like their mirage was falling apart at the end as their sentences became broken and random words were capped.

Hey there! I wanted to let you know that I reported your account when I meant to report someone else. It was a mistake, and I hope it didn’t cause any issues. I received a ticket from Tumblr and can share it with you if you’d like I'm not able to send you a message right now, though, and I’m not sure why.

Hey, just so everyone knows: if you get a message/ask like this, it's a scam. DO NOT trust anyone saying they've falsely reported you, not only will tumblr just not ban you since there's no reason for the report, but making a report on tumblr actually takes quite a bit of effort - it's more than just clicking a button.
