Should I give her my CC number to keep her company?
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).
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’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… 🤷🏼♂️
Why she send me two messages with two different accounts?
Finally! female attention! I should get out of this basement more often.
This shows that lemmy is a mature social media now! It has its own OF bots!
Why would you catfish with the fugliest chick?
Plausibility? If the photo like a model or something, everyone would know something’s up. But if it’s of an average-looking woman, you can imagine it’s some awkward nerd chick who might well share your nerdy interests.
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.
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)_/¯

I didn’t get a message this time, I think we broke up :'(
Same. I thought what we had was special 😭
Nnnnoooooo. Have you tried mailing her gift cards?
Awright, she made her first cut and I’m in! So far.
I got this today, is this like a thing that’s been going around for a while?
A few days ago and then again today.
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.
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!
