Redirected to banggood.com. With a URL like that you’d expect porn, but it looks to be an Amazon ripoff.

ETA: subsequent clicks took me to dhgate.com, another shady shopping site. They probably run multiple sites and the link sends you to some sort of roulette thing that spits you out on one of them.

That used to be the place to get quadcopters/drones when they were first becoming a thing. That was mostly just chance though, they were temu before temu was temu.

Thanks for clicking it! My skin crawls just looking at the ads and banners in that picture.

How ironic. That's a fake Temu site. Should be pretty comparable in terms of data safety and privacy.

Isn't banggood legit? I know the name looks suspicious as heck (well, if I didn't know better, I'd think it was an NSFW site), but I remember Atomic Shrimp using it for legit purchases. I'd never use it though. I think it's in the same stable as Ali express and that sort of thing.

[-] Schmuppes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah they're like AliExpress I guess.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 6 points 2 months ago

Thanks for your research

I would also like to know

Bad guy probably: "Damn kids these days, ain't got no patience for the class of a proper scam!"

[-] xavier666@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Scammer: "Now what do I do with this entire script?"

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 29 points 2 months ago

Bro is either an fbi agent or a security researcher

Na, he's probably like me: completely undesirable.

After about 10 years using dating sites I came to realize how to spot these bots. For me it's actually really simple, if they message me first they're a bot.

I haven't been wrong yet lol
