Some dude is trying to SCAM ME. Anyone with some free time to have a go at it?

Dude wants my permission to use a personal photo in an art exhibit. They will fly me to San Diego for the exhibit. The "artist" reached out to me via X..... lol Now the "artist's" client is calling to set up the transaction.

They want to know where to send money to.

Give him a call. You can admire his French accent and talk about the brushes he uses. lol

Fvck this clown.

You just gotta play along.

See if you can get a pic of the artwork to confirm before you make the payment

It's my picture he took from Twitter. They want to use it in an art gallery. They want my approval. If real, I need a lawyer to sign off, for copyright purposes.

But this is BS

Is he trying to pay you or willing to barter in any way?

They key to these things for me is to waste as much of his time as possible and then at the end respond with a very stern No

Did you ask the name of the exhibit, when it is and it's address? Seems like it'd be relatively easy info to independently verify. There'll either be an art exhibit scheduled at that location, or there won't be.

They want to know where to send money to.

Tell 'em you'll accept cash at the airport.

Tell them you’ll only accept 100 pizzas and have them delivered to @TJHall1

Maybe send his sister/brother a new donkey to ride, and of course a new helmet.
