Or maybe I haven’t just seen this image yet? I’ve only gotten images where she seems to be wearing a grey jacket.
Ooh they’ve updated the friendica url - new urls to add to the block list!
Man, why do you have to be so mean to the Fediverse Chick :(
I thought I was unique, I was the one. It was true love, man. To find out about this betrayal, breaks my heart.
She is, and always will be, MINE. Seethe and cope.
My heart yearns for Nicole.
No. Nicole and I have pledged our hearts to each other. If you dare make a move, we’ll need to throw hands.
4th picture unlocked!
I told her not to message strangers on the internet yesterday. I feel she might be cheating on me.
The only stranger on the Internet, my dear stranger, is YOU! You’ve been played! She was ALWAYS MINE!
I finally got a message from them 3 min ago. I was worried I wasn’t cool enough 🥲
Funnily enough, I had never gotten one on my old account which was >4 years old on .ml - but after I made this one on my own instance, in less than a day, I finally got one.
Serious question: are there reports of the Fediverse Chick on the Tankie Triad instances? Maybe you didn’t get one because she just avoids them entirely?
She likes money so she typically goes for the capitalist instances.
I dunno, China and Russia seem pretty capitalist to me. Seems like she may be centrist or actual left-wing.
I’ve got one
Hey guy named morrowind who never played it (or so you say)
I swear it’s true bro 😭
Just got it an hour or so ago.
Can someone explain the con?
Could be a friendica Ad.
No con. That’s my girlfriend.
No, that’s my girlfriend
Our girlfriend.
The peoples girlfriend
Is that anything like the school bike?
I have fond memories of Rebecca
Hey, bud; maybe let’s not bring whorephobic and misogynistic euphemisms into this.
Acknowledged and appreciated. I will be more considerate in future comments.
Community bicycle
Honestly, no idea. Maybe it could be a test for future scams, maybe it could be a social experiment, or maybe its just a troll.
It’s kinda like the “You Are An Idiot” virus.
Probably pig butchering but I’m not aware of anyone that’s went in and came back with a story yet
Whoever hacked this poor fellow’s webcam seems to have captured a much better photo to use in their scams.
Wait I’m now realizing, is that a bong?
Bong or dab rig, definitely.
Also just saw that now!
For some reason I was thinking it was a test tube, but a bong seems more likely.
no, it’s definitely a Florence flask, trust trust
Yeah Nicole appears to be enjoying yonder broccoli
Well, that actually explains the sagging eyes and the melancholy face. Also might be a likely explanation of why these photos were taken: people just like documenting themselves trying out stuff.
Has anyone gone into the chat room yet?
I tried the Matrix, it didn’t seem to exist :/ Then I tried Frendica, and found out that my ISP blocked the main Frendica instance.
The matrix is trying to stop you from being happy
The first iteration of the matrix was perfect. Our brains couldn’t handle it. So they had to make some tweaks. This is the result.
Stop bullying my best friend ok
well as her best friend you should know that she’s my girlfriend.
Wow. They started to get “creative”.
Does anyone know if this image is AI generated or is it just stolen?
The person and the background look too similar between photos for this to be AI. The person behind the scam probably searched the web, and stole this poor person’s photos. Judging from the poor quality, I’d date it around ~2008
I’d date it around ~2008
Eh, my laptop’s webcam looks worse than this.
Have you tried using a time machine
Well, when was your laptop manufactured?
Around 2020 I think. But it’s HP.
So around 2010-2015 in human years, then.
Given that she looks pretty much the same in multiple outfits across multiple pictures, I would assume that they are stolen from some 2000s online site
I am so happy the Fediverse chick wrote me a DM, which really means Lemmy is growing!
It is showing that there’s a lot of work to be done to deal with the spam issue. It’s basically relying on every individual instance admin to moderate their stuff and defederate from other instances that drop the ball. If Lemmy gets big enough for spammers to really try to attack it, the admins will quickly get overwhelmed.
This is from a Kbin/Mbin viewpoint, but from the very start a year or so ago spam was incredibly bad, usually porn. It was common to daily add more to the filter to see other postings. Then one day it got a lot better, either through a version update or better moderation control. I was even able to clear the old filters and not be flooded anymore. These pfishing attempts from Nicole and a few other names before her are the first ones I’ve seen in a long time. I just wish I could delete them from my PMs, for some reason that option isn’t present at all.
I think if you block the user that sent them it might delete the messages
Just tried. It will only presumably stop new messages, but I can refresh and the old sent one is still there as well as the user name that shows it’s blocked. Plus that wouldn’t be a great workaround for normal messages of people you want to talk to and just are cleaning house. I don’t know why the option isn’t there. I put something about it on the main Mbin page a while back. Maybe not many people actually use messages?
Funny enough after this conversation I received one of the messages. I blocked them and the message did dissappear. I wonder if maybe it was the timing or something? I’m using the Voyager app if that makes a difference.
This is the first time I’ve heard of this.
Anyone know why this message doesn’t lose the “unread” tag. I’m using Boost
Boost has not had an update since mid 2024. I think it’s abandonware.
I managed to clear it by going to the tab left of messages tab and clicking clear all.
Maybe your mom is abandonware
Switched to Voyager very recently and it’s pretty sleek so far. Easy to navigate and sort.
There’s one feature Boost has that I really miss when I try to switch, which is that it will save your position in the comments of a post. So like if you scroll down halfway and then leave the comments and come back, you are still in the same spot. Every other client I’ve tried doesn’t have that feature and it’s kinda a deal breaker for me
I’m on boost too. Hit the double checkmark icon, but while you’re in the replies tab. Def some kind of bug.

Must be a Boost problem. File a bug report.
Cause she has a Lemmy platinum account.
I had to close the app and reopen it
If you are on any of those listed platforms, please report those accounts as spam/fishing.
I tried the Matrix, it didn’t seem to exist :/ Then I tried Frendica, and found out that my ISP blocked the main Frendica instance.
All I ever hear about Matrix is when they close another pedophile instance. I’m not saying everyone in Matrix is a pedophile, but every pedophile is on Matrix.
Why have you been messaging my girlfriend?
Beh it’s the NSA fishing for incels
They must have more incels then they know what to do with at this point. Must be the FBI.
The FBI is literally run by incels.
Must be the CIA.
