Stupid question maybe but what's the goal of this scam? The URLs seem safe, is the goal to convince us to send money to her?

[–] RonnyZittledong@lemmy.world 30 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

It's almost certainly a pig butchering scam

[–] crawancon@lemm.ee 6 points 23 hours ago

be wary of any man who has a pig farm.

eh bricktop?

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 8 points 23 hours ago

Might be just someone wanting to highlight an architecture issue that allows someone to spam everyone.

[–] DogEarBookmark@reddthat.com 11 points 21 hours ago

Joke's on you, I got myself a new friend 😌

[–] Gonzako@lemmy.world 11 points 21 hours ago

I'm lonely, OK?

I had seen posts like this circulating before so I tried to track them down:

https://lemm.ee/post/57432653

https://jlai.lu/post/16111085

https://lemmy.cafe/post/14113013

Some of these posts suggest they are using the pictures of someone else on purpose. Some say they're a bot. I personally haven't gotten these messages but I don't get DM's so that's probably why. I'm pretty positive this is some kind of Honeypot scam. Either way I wouldn't trust it.

I've gotten 3 or 4 separate PMs from different alts of this account (same username but different instances) over at least a month now.

[–] DogEarBookmark@reddthat.com 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I just got one today. My lemmy client couldn't even delete it or read it's notification. Kinda hoping thats a bug if this is going to be a thing

[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 8 points 20 hours ago

You can't escape Nicole

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 11 points 23 hours ago

It seemed pretty out of left field. Like, okay... I'm not clicking on any of that. No explanation of why someone would message me this and as I expected, it seems to have been some sort of widespread spam.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 7 points 22 hours ago

Has anyone followed the links to see what the deal is?

[–] lemmie689@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 23 hours ago

I've had 3 or 4 already of this exact msg.

[–] loaf@sh.itjust.works 4 points 21 hours ago

I’ve gotten this message on my mastodon account twice, from different instances/accounts. Blocked them all.

[–] CatladyX@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago

I got this message on my mastodon account, thought it was weird and just ignored it
