The current most likely theory of the people that dove headfirst into this seems to be, that she was a small streamer on peertube and other platforms (hence the many different webcam images, too). Looking into the chat of the stream on her peertube account reveals at least one person, that had all their messages removed by her. The linked accounts on the most common spam messages feel more like doxxing attempts, too - with ones like this asking for money most likely being copycats, as in the original messages and linked communities, there was a suspicious lack of asking for money or trying to start contact for a romance/catfishing scam.
This would all point to some kind of crazy stalker trying to doxx this woman for whatever reason, in a pretty weird way. Maybe they hoped it would get us all riled up and hating on her? Maybe they thought by just seeing her, we'd react in some way? Maybe they just wanted the feeling of power to doxx and intimidate her, and no real plan beyond that?
Whatever it is, it really looks more like creepy shit than scam shit at this point, from what I have gathered in the community research that has been happening.
This is not a copycat. This is the official account. The scammer first announced this on the Matrix. I reported first in this post.
Oh, that is almost comforting to hear, because a clear profit motive that can be linked to the original messages would indeed be pointing towards scam instead of weird stalker. That being said, it sadly would not on its own completely do away with the theory.
I'm waiting for them to come to Lemmy and make a post explaining things. That would be very interesting.
is there an AMA sublemmy?
They're called communities here BTW, that's why the Url is /c/
There don't seem to be any large ones unless I'm missing it.
There's one with a bit under 20000 subscribers (though it's on hexbear):
!ama@hexbear.net
and one with just over 2000:
!askmeanything@lemmy.ca
Thank you for sharing!
