Just give me your credit card and bank account details and your hookup will be there in no time!

I never seem to get appropriately coded romance scams.

I guess the RFI from my computer is jamming the gaydar.

You can tell she’s not a real girl by the lack of cat ears

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

She's not crossing her eyes and sticking her tongue out either.

The Fediverse Scamgirl!

Awkward Nerd Girls Want In Your DMs! They're not in your area, just online!


I almost made this same post and then decided I didn't care enough. This was my take on the same;

Also interesting that she has a different username literally everywhere and she's speaking English, "from" Toronto, on a Swedish Lemmy instance.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Also, the term "pre-health science", that "she" used has never been used in Canada as far as I know. We don't even say pre-med. Either you are in med school, or you are trying to get in, taking a variety of courses. There is no defined set of courses that we call pre-med.

Other differences between us and the US regarding post-secondary education:

Canadian universities are also almost completely free of fraternities and sororities.

We have sports scholarships, but they are nowhere near as lavish as in the US. Sports in general is a minor sideline for Canadian universities.

And to us, college always means community college. University is university (and never "uni" as some benighted countries call it).

Congratulations on being irresistible to Polish girls from Toronto.

I am the horny lonely single in your area.

[–] TropicalDingdong 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I thought she was just lonely and extremely awkward.

[–] whostosay 15 points 1 month ago

She is, and you're the only person who can fix it, message now!

Oh so it was a bot.

I've had a few random PMs from confused people that were just one offs and thought this was one of them. But that is verbatim the message I got from the account.

Oh Dann I got this same message but it got deleted before I checked my inbox. I guess the instance mods are on point.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

Yep, got it. Twice, actually, somebody's finger must have slipped.

It was kind of inevitable that fraudsters would figure out making a sockpuppet on here is easy.

[–] TropicalDingdong 12 points 1 month ago

Hmm.. you know lady, I'm kind of a big deal in the comments.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

Sorry, I fell in love with you and couldn't hold back so I made an alt to DM you

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (3 children)

They seem indomitable and I generally hate being on the losing side, so… Hey, it’s me. The sex person with the sex. F/18/under your floorboards. Stick your debit card through the slats for good, fun sex or else

I got a similar message from that user and a near identical one earlier from a lemmings.world account. The latter onr also had links to a peertube channel with a different angle thumbnail of what appears to be the same person.

If you had an established profile and DM'd me I'd be more humoured to respond to out-of-the-blue introductions. But seeing that both accounts were created today, no public activity and immediately giving yourself a horny-bait nickname set off all the BS alarms.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 weeks ago

I had forgotten those were a thing ever since I got off Tinder. Luckily I've always been too cynical to believe unsolicited messages from women lol

[–] SpaceNoodle 9 points 1 month ago (6 children)

I got the same obvious spam. Not sure how to report profiles.
