Beware of internet art scams


Please be aware that as an artist with a presence on the internet you can receive scam emails.
Usually they will contain bad English and will not be particularly specific to your artwork. 
Do not reply to these emails. A typical scam email will read:
From: Patrick George <patrickhayce@gmail.com>
Date: Fri, Oct 25, 2019 at 4:29 PM
Subject: Art work

To:  xxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com

My name is Patrick from Florida and was looking for some arts online and i found your contact while searching. 

I will like to purchase some of your work for my wife as a surprise gift for our 20th anniversary. 

Please kindly send pics and prices of some of your art which are ready for immediate sale within price range $500- $5000 

I hope to hear a lot more about any available piece in your inventory ready for immediate sale.
