As a follow up from this journal -> Veradaux and Not Paying for Commissions

I have been contacted by FA staff about this incident since I reported it. Here is the final message I got from them.

---
Members of Fur Affinity's staff are not permitted to mediate business transaction disputes unless it involves mass scamming; however, I will make a file of this incident in our Code of Conduct Enforcement department so that if other victims come forward an investigation may be launched. If an investigation is initiated, an Administrator will re-open this ticket and contact you to discuss the status of your claim.

In the meantime, I encourage you to seek other avenues to resolve this issue such as communication with the user, contacting your bank to dispute a transaction, or discussing your situation with legal counsel.

I wish you the best in this matter and hope that you can come to a fruitful resolution.

So apparently they won't do anything unless the user in question is involved in mass scamming. If other victims come forward they'll investigate further. So I say if you know anyone who has also been scammed by them to also report them about those incidents. It must be an incident that happened on FurAffinity and staff can even look through notes if you give them permission.

This seems to be the only way to resolve this since FA policy doesn't protect its users. Lets see if FA is even worth a damn.

I call bullsh*t on this choice from the staff.
That user must've at least already broke a few Code of Conduct policies.

I feel sad you have to go through this. :(
