Warning about u/Ok-Artichoke6309 (“David”) – my experience after buying AI subscriptions

I’m posting this so others can make an informed decision.

About a month ago I purchased multiple AI subscriptions from u/Ok-Artichoke6309 after seeing his posts on Reddit.

The purchase included:

  • ElevenLabs Creator (advertised as 1 year)
  • ChatGPT Plus
  • Claude Pro
  • Google AI Pro

I paid in crypto (USDT), received the subscriptions and everything initially appeared legitimate.

Around one month later, however, everything started falling apart.

Almost simultaneously I began receiving payment failure emails from ChatGPT, Claude and ElevenLabs. Soon afterwards the subscriptions either stopped working or entered payment/billing issues.

Naturally I contacted the seller.

From that point on, the conversation became a cycle of:

  • “This is normal.”
  • “First renewal always takes longer.”
  • “Don’t touch anything.”
  • “Wait 24–38 hours.”
  • “Tomorrow.”
  • “I’ll check.”
  • “I’ll give you an ETA.”

This continued for days.

During that time I repeatedly explained that I use these tools for work and couldn’t deliver client projects because my subscriptions were inactive.

Every time I asked whether this would happen every month, I was explicitly told:

>“No.”

When I asked for actual timelines, I kept receiving new promises instead.

At one point he even claimed he already knew my account and was processing it. Later in the conversation he asked me to send my email address again because he apparently didn’t know which account he was working on.

The explanations kept changing.

Instead of resolving the problem, I was repeatedly told that asking for updates was “slowing things down.”

When I finally said that if nothing changed I would have to assume I’d been scammed, the conversation immediately shifted toward accusing me of being disrespectful instead of addressing the actual subscription issues.

The attached screenshots show the entire timeline.

I’m not asking anyone to harass this person.

I’m simply documenting my experience so other buyers know exactly what happened after the first renewal cycle.

If you’re considering buying long-term AI subscriptions from this seller, I strongly recommend reading the screenshots first and making your own decision.

Update: Shortly after I started questioning the repeated delays and asking for concrete answers, the seller blocked me on Reddit, which prevented me from contacting him further or warning others through Reddit messages.

Stay safe and away from scammers fellas.
