Fraudulent and Declined accounts
Added 2018-08-20 21:24:26 +0000 UTCHi everyone. As a part of an effort to clean up my back end here at Patreon I will be taking some preemptive measures and blocking accounts that have been listed as "fraud". These accounts are mostly ones that have been pledged to me for years but have never paid anything.
You will get an email if your account has been blocked. If you believe this to be an error simply email me at erotibot.art@gmail.com and I will try to resolve the issue with you.
Generally speaking, I don't bother patrons whose payments were declined, but going forward I may send out reminder messages to anyone whose payments are repeatedly declined.
I know this might be irritating for some of you, but I want to start handling things a little more professionally and part of that involves looking after my own business a little better.
Thanks for understanding, and above all thank-you for your support.

2018-08-21 10:54:54 +0000 UTCI agree with the suggestion of charge upfront. As fraudsters don't ever bother with Patreons that charge upfront.

2018-08-20 21:38:05 +0000 UTCI take no pleasure in it, and generally have a hard time looking out for myself, but I am trying to change that.

2018-08-20 21:31:06 +0000 UTCI am considering this! The reason why I haven't is because the switch to monthly is still fresh and people are still updating their pledges. I didn't want anyone to be charged twice for simply updating their pledge. After another month I will look at the options again.

2018-08-20 21:29:10 +0000 UTCOh and just to be clear. There are a LOT of "fraud" accounts that follow me. Blocking ANYONE is not fun for me at all. But for the reasons listed above I feel that I should start taking some action. Once again, if you get hit with this and believe it to be a mistake, simply email me and I will try to work with you. Blessings to all!
