Should I give her my CC number to keep her company?
now im kinda concerned that i haven't got a spambot message on fedi yet, when i have on every other platform.
guess im doing something wrong or not posting enough or something.
She just sent me a third DM. This one had a different picture! She's obviously really into me.
I just got a second one from the Fediverse Chick. Sad guess she isn't that into me.
Well it's like they say: Once you go Sergio.... uh... everyone else is incognito.
The French of jlailu received it as well today.
We felt without l’amour, but now we have it back hon hon hon.
I felt left out, but I just got one. Hilarious.
Hmmm. The spam bots are learning.
I can't believe that my own copy of this spam is how I found out that we have lemmy <-> mbin dms working now lmao
TIL there is a Toronto in Poland.
She is Polish, possibly from Poland, and now lives in Toronto Canada. Is how I understand it.
So real talk, what exactly is the angle here? Are these rogue instances in the links? Truly just trying to bait in the lonely and gullible to eventually solicit payment down the line?
It just seems ... weird for a romance bait scam. Average looking woman (though could be to lower guards), links to Fediverse service profiles rather than botted DM exchanges, etc.
I could just be being naive, but idk. There's a very particular brand of fishy to this, beyond the obvious. The other probable scammer I dealt with at least came with a sob story that I could see being more effective (end of his rope humanitarian worker in an African country, children dying due to lack of $ for the program).
I watched the stream, it was just a very long looped video of the girl in the photo, looked the same one day later. It seems like it's been deleted today. The Friendica profile also nothing extraordinary. I guess the scam should be on the chat, it required one more click after opening the site, and I never heard of this stumblechat, so I didn't bother. After some searching I can't find a lot info on this Stumblechat, it definitely has nothing to do with the fediverse.
Someday am actual human woman is going to approach me and start talking and I'm going to assume she's a bot
Hello fellow human, would you like to see my fleshy human vagina?
fleshy human vagina?
Both accurate and horrifying.
This guy prefers his women sans flesh. Hmmm
Beggars can’t be choosers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yes ok but you don't need to be doing their job for them. Blur that shit.
Why? Why respect the privacy of a spambot?
It's not about respecting the privacy of a spambot. it's about doing their job for them. The bot wants their links and their advert to be seen by as many eyeballs as possible. Guess what the OP just achieved? Blur all links next time.
I disagree.
Saying "this is a scam" with the links visible is more transparent. If the scam changes but the links are similar, it will hopefully raise a red flag for someone.
Blurring them does nothing other than obfuscating the details of the scam.
Shine light onto the darkness and document it.
I'm kinda on the fence... yeah ditch any actual links, etc, but with a title like that to this post, it's kinda showing familiarity AND the bait warning. So... 🤷🏼♂️
I got my dm from the bot just a bit ago! I feel all loved now :)
Same, feels like I matter
Got mine as well. Glad to see I'm not alone on the bot list of targets.
I actually have ~~two~~ three messages from the scammer. Both the exact same text from different accounts. Both reported.
Just got a new one from nicole@feddit.rocks
All she does is stare into the screen for 3 hours
awww, we got our own community chic? she's everyone's girlfriend now, also, 45 y.o. and a man
Rule 30.
There are numbers before 34?
You wouldn't be the first person to skip straight to the porn.

This shows that lemmy is a mature social media now! It has its own OF bots!
there a fediverse equivalent of OF? 👀
The googly eyes make this post.
Finally! female attention! I should get out of this basement more often.
I got this today, I looked at it but it hasn't vanished from my messages list. Bloody annoying.
I didn't get a message this time, I think we broke up :'(
Same. I thought what we had was special 😭
I looked at this thread and then my notifications. It was there but hadn't notified me yet, said 23 seconds ago. Weird timing.
Yes, please do. Just make sure to send her the "correct" one, or it might be bad for her if she got the "wrong" one, whoopsie!
Can we get Elons and give if to em?
If I had Elon's cc# I wouldn't need to give it out to scammers to empty that shit.
