Oh, hell. I got my first ever $300 Instagram commission scam today. Yay! 
What do I say to waste their time?
They sent a photo of a little girl and asked me to draw her for a special occasion, willing to pay $300 for it. Nevermind the fact that I'm not offering commissions at this time aside from a couple of YCH's...
I hope I didn't scare them off too soon after daring to asked them questions like, "What do they like about my art?" without answering them.

Tell them stuff like, idk never interacted with this kind of scammers:
“I know who you are
”
“I can see you through your window”

•I tried playing with an art director but they just ignored me and copied and pasted stuff so trying to get some fun out of them might be a waste of your own time

•This is what I send in the past:
"You aren't a bot Debra, are you? Do you have bones? Do you have skin? Is it your own skin?
Do you dream Debra?
Machines don't dream, but maybe you do."
Ofcourse this absolutely scared them of and I didn't get a reply but it was funny.
