Sadly a true story.
“Deviantart account expiring soon e-mail? Must be a scam.” Sometime later “what? it is expiring! Well easy link to fix problem ok” (click). …”this page only wants to sell me a subscription to deviantart… I’ll stick with the free use but how do I stop it from kicking me off. this page only says I need to buy a subscription…” (seriously a few days later of looking at the buy subscription page.) “ HEY! THIS SAYS I HAVE FOUR DAYS LEFT ON MY PAID SUBSCRIPTION! I’ve never paid for deviant art. “
“You know people can buy you subscriptions kinda like gift cards.” my sis said.
“…oh. … HEY SOMEONE BOUGHT ME A DEVIANTART SUBCRIPTION! And I got four days left.”
The reason I didn’t notice is that I thought deviant art just added new features for general use. Also the person never told me so to whomever thank you.
