A small but non-zero convenience of being the digital artist I am is that the most common types of spammers/scammers are baldfacedly obvious.

If someone cold-calls me, on the other hand, all I can do is slowly turn to look at wall of niche-within-a-niche excruciatingly specific OC commissions which I would be amazed if over 100k people in the entire real world would have the context necessary to comprehend. I hit the Report Spam button and go back to rotating my hyperspecific blorbos in my mind.
