i'm no longer giving refunds because the amount of scammers trying to get free content. each time someone asks for a refund, it takes me a long time to search up the names and check the logs, then ask questions to see if the story adds up about dates, etc. but now people have even found a way to get around this and make it look like a different situation happened. it's just a lot of time and i have other work i need to do. I've been going through some depression (don't worry. just off my meds currently because of some changes with my psychologist. i'll be fine soon) so i don't have a ton of energy each day to spend on work.

I'm sorry and I hope this doesn't come off as rude or scummy. All the refund DM requests i've gotten were because financial situations changing, and the majority were scammers. Because of that, I simply can't refund anymore. I'm thankful that no refunds were from people disliking my content, though. I'm happy people like it and are supporting me :) it means a lot <3

Hell, I didn't even know refunds were a thing....

It's already been said, but good on ya. I thought it was quite kind of you to consider refunds in the first place--didn't even know it was a thing till I saw your earlier post. I don't know anyone else who would do that.

I hope you get to feeling better Fawn. Please take care of yourself.

Has people already forget patreon is a a donation to your favourite creator it's not a a place for refunds all the scammers I had a feeling this was going to happen one day good luck fighting it

Every customer is responsible for their own expenses. If you can't afford it, why did you buy it in the first place? Is it then the sellers responsibility that you can't handle your own finances?

I think this is the best thing to do for you. While I'm sure most refunds requests are scams, those that are genuine need to take responsibility for their own finances. As I commented on the last post, I find it sweet you care about your Patrons enough to consider giving refunds. But in the end they're (Hopefully) all adults, and their finance problems are theirs, not yours. And as a side note, hope you're doing okay with the Depression. having finally started on meds for mine, I've honestly never felt better about my life. Thanks for all the great content Fawn.

You have every right to refuse refunds 👍I find it bizarre that people would actually ask for a refund tbh. I think it's just to get your attention if anything, which is kinda sad.

Scott Evans

Yeah, that's pretty F'd up on their part. You're 100% in the right to not give a refund to a scammer. Also, if anyone is being "rude and scummy", it's them for trying to scam you.

It amazes me that people will go this far for free content

Do what you gotta do Fawn!

LPPrince

You're making the right call Fawn. At a certain point, people need to be responsible for their decisions, and you have your own things to deal with. This is fair for everyone in the end. Hope you get back to doing what you do best.

Unfortunately scammers will do anything to get their way
