Remarkably pedestrian photo for a scam. And 29yo seems old for a fantasy girl too.

I guess they understand that it’s older guys who have the money, and even those guys know they’ll never make it with an 18yo.

Hi im the fediverse money please!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

What would it mean to fall for it?
Are the links themselves dangerous?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Gotta love Nicole

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

For sure wouldnt be doing it if it didnt work. Id assume theres a small percentage of the people they send this to think its real

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I cashapp sent her my life savings. She's going to wire me back 10x that amount any minute now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I sent her my prized collection of shoelaces.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah I got that same message. I think I deleted it because it's no longer in my inbox.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

New picture?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Seriously, y'all need to stop doing the spammers work for them by reposting it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Don't dog on my girl Nicole ahahaha

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How are we supposed to be aware of the potential scams if they don't post it though?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

If that's the reason, one can blur out the links and shit. But this is fairly obvious, and also it's all over lemmy constantly giving free advertisement to the spammer

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

I fell for her pretty hard, I don't even mind that we all share but I get Saturday nights.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 week ago

People, stop it, she already promised to marry me once the bitcoin transfer is received.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Everyone knows there are no girls on the internet

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

nope, if that porn is on the internet those are MEN and that porn is GAY 🌈

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Wait for Prince of Nigeria to hear about Fediverse.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I got this message yesterday and checked out the matrix server. It was a bunch of anime profiles spewing racist nonsense. Reminded me of 4chan with the vibes. Not for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Can I ask why you bothered to check it out? Doesn't that just encourage this behavior? If no one clicked the links people wouldn't do this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah, fair point. In retrospect I don't really know why I checked it out. I guess my curiosity got the better of me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Has anyone had a chat with her?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

She’s like our Myspace Tom

[–] [email protected] 60 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Hello all! I'm Rose. Also a Fediverse chick. Unlike Nicole I don't spam people. Also I'm not on Friendica (not many people are) and you probably shouldn't add me as a friend on any Fedi platform because I'm a hella boring nerd.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago
[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How do I send money to you?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Sheesh, at least buy them a drink or something first, you don't have to jump straight to brass tax

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I feel like hella boring and nerd are mutually exclusive

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Depends if you're into each particular nerd's special interest(s)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Now we're talking!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Hi! I'm John, but you can call me the fediverse dude. Unlike nicole and Rose, I don't claim to be someone i'm not! Please add me on all platforms, I crave attention!

(Sorry Rose, I need this)

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

I am interested.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

What kinda nerd?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago
