285Stay Safe: Beware of Scammers Offering Custom 3D Work
At RenderHub, were proud of the trust and creativity shared in our community. Unfortunately, like on any online platform, scammers occasionally try to take advantage of our community members.
We want to make sure you are aware of a common scam we've seen.
-----
How the Scam Works:
- A scammer may offer to create custom 3D work for you.
- They'll try to move the conversation off RenderHub - often to Discord or another private channel.
- Once there, they will ask for an up-front payment - and then disappear without delivering the work.
How to Protect Yourself:
- Keep communications on RenderHub. Scammers usually try to avoid records of their scams.
- Be cautious about up-front payments. Verify the reputation and work history of anyone you hire for custom jobs.
- Report suspicious activity. If someone tries to take the conversation off-platform or behaves unprofessionally, click the report button on the message.

It probably happens more often that artists are asked for commissions and then not paid, but since this is a product store, we tend to always look in one direction only... now it's full of scammers, it's better to never trust

Thu, Feb 20This happened to me in 2023, i made the product, put it online and i had no purchases but i saw in demand (free) on a site that i will not name here. I did not totally waste my time since it is on sale in my store and the requester had no pre-version.
I did a few commissioned jobs. I always charged 1/3 of the price in advance and then I would send him how it was going for the first corrections he wanted. And the rest upon delivery and I gave him everything. Since they were almost always based on real people... and I deleted more reference photos and everything from my hard drive. Sorry, I'm going off topic. You always have to be very careful.

Mon, Apr 14This isn't the best place to get an answer to this request.
I recommend submitting a more specific request in the 3D Items Wanted forum https://www.renderhub.com/forum/3d-items-wanted
or in the jobs section https://www.renderhub.com/jobs/find-3d-jobs
The more specific the request, including an image or link, the more likely you'll be satisfied.
