I got one on dullsters.net I hope it's not some kind of vulnerability.

Is this Nicole thing really still a thing? Thatβs so like back when I still had a 401k.
So was it last week or the day before yesterday? It all happens so fast, I can't - and frankly - refuse to catch up.
Weird, Iβd assumed it was just AI generated? What makes people think itβs harassment?
All the images look like screenshots taken during video calls. Also some people did some research and found the potential identity of the spammer (based on one of the accounts used) and maybe even the woman herself (coworker of the guy).
Wait, there are people who genuinely believe she's the one behind it?
I thought it was pretty obvious that she's the target of harassment. Some people must be new to the Internet
Yeah, I've been targeted by enough romance spam that I just assume any photo of a woman I don't know was probably stolen from some random Tumblr or Instagram.
Yay, fediverse lore!
Remember that guy who wanted to know how not to poop for three days!?
Would rather more positive lore, but I guess it is fediverse lore. Just checked from curiosity, all but 2 messages I have got are from Nicole bots, 1 was another spammer and the other an automated "welcome to this community" bot message.
Yeah. At least Colby and the Jolly Ranchers didn't involve harassment of an innocent person.
Oh right I remembering reporting someone for DMβing me the Nicole picture last week after learning the account wasnβt even a day old. Good to know things like this are being taken seriously.
The real fediverse chick was that newly hatched chicken someone posted pics of.
Often imitated, never duplicated.
Thank you for the heads up. This probably cleaned up the confusion about the "fediverse chick" issues. May the culprit behind this be found and dealt with, and may she regain the peace and dignity she deserves, then.
Is this the person some folks around here were referring to as the "Fediverse chick?"
Yes, as that is how "she" initially introduced herself
Was that a real introduction or simply another person using a stolen identify?
That is the point of this post. It was always considered to be spam and folks were trying to figure out what the motivation was and now they are working on the theory they are trying to be a dick to someone.
It's almost certainly someone using pictures they took from a live stream
Yep. That's the one
Thankfully I haven't received one of the gore ones I've seen people talking about, but yeah I'll stop participating in the meme, it's not as a fun anymore.
