The only girl in the fediverse
She’s a superhero. Fediverse Girl!
I think the ratio of trans to cis women on Lemmy is about even
I thought this was funny
Imagine unwarping the face 😆
As a mod in other coomunities, please report these as quickly as you can. They can generally be taken care of quickly.
I had this aswell. Will do.
okay lol i feel less bad for reporting this user now that i know it was widespread
I got like 8 of those :-/
damn how did they think that was gonna look legit 🤣
I got the same lol
Me too.
Same here.
Shame. I’ve PM’d a few people and had good conversations.
Sure, but did you at least add context about why you’re messaging them? Like some comment or post they made that you liked and you wanted to talk about similar stuff?
Because that would be kind of normal. That’s what private messages are for. But this one is just bait.
Yeah just a question or a word of encouragement or a recommendation so it didn’t seem like I was advertising. I like most things to be publicly posted but not everything. If Lemmy gets a bunch of bot spam PMs, legit ones will be less likely to get a response.
I imagine speed limits will be put on DMs at some point in the future. There’s no reason to have it wide open so you can firehose multiple people with the same message.
Like, if you’re sending a message to someone and they reply back, you can immediately reply back, back-and-forth, as fast as you want. Other than that, you should only be able to send a message once every five or ten minutes.
bait could be better.
What’s with that?
Is a homely looking person supposed to appear less scammy?
Its almost insulting. Its like. Hey. If im gonna be catfished it should be by someone who seems way out of my league. thank you very much.
Thanks for the heads up! I never PM anyone on social media platforms unless I’ve met them in real life and they expressed actual openness to talking to me.
I thought maybe it vas a weird quirk of friendica, but yeah this seems more focused
I got it too. Looks like maybe they were banned because it disappeared from my inbox
I’ve been getting a different one for awhile trying to rope me into a crypto scam
Yeah this was the first thing that i saw in the morning and it was so surreal. I literally woke up, grabbed my smartphone, went to lemmy inbox, and saw this message three times in a row. Clicked through all of them, then fell back to sleep, only to wake up an hour ago and now i see this meme. I guess i wasn’t dreaming this up after all.
who is the woman in the picture? I saw a couple stills randomly posted in comments too.
Maybe those who got spammed have something in common? There’s no complete list of users on Fediverse, but it could’ve targeted a list of users it have seen somewhere, or like community admins, or whatever. I haven’t been spammed although I have a fairly active acc.
I got one from her/it yesterday evening. Also a few days before that I got a creepy DM from some rightwinger trying to convince me that there not a fascist Nazi presence and that “people don’t even know what those things are as they haven’t lived through them”.
Never got a DM before that. My guess is lemmy is big enough or rather left enough for federal intervention and psyops are starting if they haven’t already.
If you think that’s new, come on over to the nsfw side of things. We have a whole cast of zany butts.
