So it's come to our attention that ScottCawhton87 has posted an AI generated FNaF 3 teaser poster. This account is fake and is not Scott. Scott's actual accounts can be found here.

For proof the account isn't actually Scott's for starters, it had changed it's Instagram name twice you can find this information by clicking the three ... next to the username and then going to "About this Account", the alt/backup account is based in Ukraine a place for which Scott is not from nor lives, you can find this information again same way via the About this Account. Scott also has never used an SN like the either Instagram account it's always been Animdude or RealScawthon. They've posted fanart that is a tracing of a fan render and models, there are also those that have seen the account originally was following a few Teenage girl accounts before purging them replacing with Steelwool and other Scott/FNaF tied official accounts.

So please unfollow the account if you are, and inform friends and others about this account is not Scott by anymeans.

Edit

Was corrected about what the account was originally following before the purging.

As of the past five months, we've noticed more and more that the community has been understandably disappointed and have been expressing their frustration with how the state of the series has been handled in response to The Ultimate Guide 2.0, the second FNaF film and its novelization, and most recently the VR update of Secret of the Mimic.

As a result we've been receiving an influx of many users coming here making posts directed to Scott or Steel Wool in particular, giving their critiques and suggestions for how to handle everything differently.

While we are not going to migrate these posts into a single megathread like we've done for some stuff in the past as people are allowed to express their thoughts on the current state of the series regardless if it's positive or negative and we do not intend to come off as silencing any discussion on the matter, we would like to inform folks that their best chance of having their concerns seen would be to email them directly.

Given Scott is no longer active on reddit outside the very rare and occasional comment, it's unlikely for your comment to be seen by him. While Steel Wool has a email listed on their website for that intended purpose.

We're not suggesting this as a means to harass either party but instead have it so people's voices have a greater chance of being heard. If we find out anyone is using this as a means of harassing folks, then we will handle it accordingly. Not to mention, both parties are more likely to hear you out if you give proper constructive criticisms instead of lashing out at them.

While asking for lore reveals or change in developers or license is not gonna happen, it's very well possible they will take other matters into consideration such as asking them to invest in PR teams, taking time with their work and most importantly, address community concerns to give a few examples.

If you want to contact either these are their emails. And again please do not harass them.
