About BogusArtFair.info
Bogus Art Fair is intended to be a place for visual artists to share their scammer-experiences and warn others of potential scammers.
Scams and fraud are increasing problems for anyone with an online presence, be it as simple as having an email address or as active as having an intricate website and participating in several discussion forums. Artists are a particularly susceptible group because most of us are happy for a sale and looking for that big break.
