I just checked my messages and there she is 🥲 I feel both seen and seen through, as though this is what it feels like when doves cry 🥲
Got me this morning
Ah she’s on mastodon too?! Hahaha. Nicole will go down in fediverse history and I love it.
Today I finally received one, I’m worthy enough to be targeted by a bot.
She was probably afraid to fall in love herself because she really likes trains as well.
Plot twist: Shes just a lonely person stationed somewhere far away from civilization trying desperately to make friends and find love online.
Who isn’t?
Did anybody ever go as far as to click a link and see what kind of virus it was?
Can someone explain?
So you are the unfound one, I see
I can’t explain, no, because I don’t understand the motivation behind it.
But someone (likely a bot) has been spamming messages, allegedly from the person depicted, as “the Fediverse chick.” I got my first one this morning. It arrived within sixty seconds of me making a post, so I have to guess it’s targeting more active users. If you’re a frequent commenter, you’ll probably get one eventually, too.
Last week I got two in about an one hour time span I think, but they came from different accounts.
Hi, I’m The Fediverse Chick, and I’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty!
I texted back “Just send me the virus link”, but did not get a response 🙁
The real joke for me is lemmy being so starved of content a meme is cast of the first big spam message and people are irritatedly commenting that they haven’t gotten it yet
You got any more of them memes?
Shakes with withdrawal
Hey man, come on. Don’t hold out!
Does anyone know who this person actually is? Shouldn’t we try to tell them this is happening?
I think she is the Fediverse chick
I finally got hit today, was feeling left out of the fun.
I have not gotten hit.
I’ve been hit so many times I should have a purple heart. This screenshot is akin to a NK general showing off his stripes.
I think she only contacted me thrice. Now I’m sad, I think she doesn’t really love me.
That’s wild, I only got hit once months ago. She must really have the hots for you.*wink wink *nudge nudge
Oh hey, I got her today as well! I guess she’s expanding the reach
Same! I was starting to think I was doing Lemmy wrong or something
Me as well, what am I supposed to do with this now?
Got pinged by the spammer earlier today on Mastodon. Nothing on Lemmy yet.
Hah. I just got my first one today. I immediately chalked it up to spam, but didn’t know it was so widespread. Hilarious.
As did I just a few minutes ago. I feel so special!
What did I miss?
A bot that messages you, for like fake hookups and stuff. I got another one this morning. It says She’s polish studying in Toronto:D I forgot her name though.
Her Name’s Nicole.
But you can call her the Fediverse Chick
There is go! Thanks!
Lol that was supposed to be there it is.
are you fucking sorry ?
Yes :(
there’s spam bots trying to get people to be like “oh a sexy jewish nerd from poland is into me? lemme yeah send her some money”
I don’t find her sexy (I’m straight) and it seems like a guess at best that she’s Jewish.
it used to be in the intro. it was in the intro i got
