Just a friendly heads up

Hey there every one.  I was informed today of a scam, as the same person watched me, faved some work then sent me a generic message that she sent two other friends about 3-4 months ago.

The scam is for points for a friend she wants to give a premium account too who's birthday is in three months and she said that exactly 3 months ago!  When asked about the friend by three separate people she gave the same exact response.

She claims that she has no way to make her own points for all she has is a camera.

Here is a message from a friend about it to me:

THAT IS FRAUD.

Me and :icontheartisticpony: have both been hit up for points but here's the thing, she sent :icontheartisticpony: the same copy/pasted message months ago (Back in February or March, she can tell you more). What this girl is doing is scamming people out of their points with her sob story.

The fact that she has premium membership given by an anonymous deviant is most likely due to her gathering the points, giving them to a secondary account, and then gifting her main account premium membership. Also, look at the comments on her profile page. It goes on and on and on with "Thanks for the watch!" so you can easily deduce that she's just watching people to butter them up and get points out them.

Hello there! :iconlovecatsplz:, you have a very nice profile, I like it.  For me it will be a great pleasure that I could to meet you.  My name is Julia and I'm not an artist, but I have a camera and I love cats, are my whole life. Unfortunately, I am not rich, I do not paint, and I do not draw so I have no way to get DA points by a commission so I have a question for you if there is anything I can do for you to get some DA points from you?  My friend has a birthday soon, I would like to gather for Premium Membership... for him.  If you are able to help me I would be very grateful for every single point.  I personally do not care for a Premium Membership , I am glad when I have the opportunity to visit such profile as your , so if you can not or do not want to help me for any reason, it will be for me to fully understandable. Thank you for taking me this moment of your time, and I hope you're not mad at me, if so I'm sorry very much.

Hello! Nice to meet you and thank you for the watch.
It is hard to collect points with only a camera. hmm have you heard ofdahub.deviantart.com/
That will help a tad.
Most the points I have were given for contests, but given you circumstance I know that isn't possible.
Who is the friend you are gathering them for if I may ask? =3

Oh...Thank you very much for your note. I'm sorry that bothered you, I hope you can forgive me..... Remaining three months to his birthday, but I want it to be a surprise so I do not want to say who it is because someone could tell him, I hope you understand me.
