Or maybe I haven’t just seen this image yet? I’ve only gotten images where she seems to be wearing a grey jacket.
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!
Is that a crack pipe😭
Nicole seems to be experimenting.
Stay in school Nicole!(George Brown College specifically)
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)
Wait…you mean we aren’t soulmates? 😭
You may still be soulmates, but you’re certainly not the one dating her.
Got my one today. Finally part of the gang.
Has anyone actually bothered engaging?
I tried, but failed as the server didn’t seem to exist.
Many of our hard-working instance admins are on top of blocking her whenever she pops up again.
How dare they ban my girlfriend 🤬🤬🤬
How dare you say that my soulmate is “your girlfriend”.
Getting engaged after just one message seems a bit desperate.
I only got 1 massage from her 5months ago, now she ghosted me :(
Damn, I feel bad for you. Now this doesn’t mean that I’ll allow you to make moves on my girlfriend, but I’m there for you.
She gives out massages? Damn, I’m missing out.
With a happy ending?
Same hete, and I am fine with that.
I still have not received a single nicole dm :(
I got my first one an hour ago, truly an honor.
I can forward you mine if you want
Same. I feel so left out :(
also just got a message with her new outfit
looking good, nicole :)
Do we love our girlfriend or what?
It’s a social experiment, and this thread is part of the plan.
Hands off, buddy. She’s mine!
Just got it an hour or so ago.
Can someone explain the con?
No con. That’s my girlfriend.
No, that’s my girlfriend
Our girlfriend.
The peoples girlfriend
Is that anything like the school bike?
Community bicycle
I have fond memories of Rebecca
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.
Could be a friendica Ad.
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.
Well, when was your laptop manufactured?
Around 2020 I think. But it’s HP.
So around 2010-2015 in human years, then.
Have you tried using a time machine
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
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
Cause she has a Lemmy platinum account.
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.
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
Maybe your mom is abandonware
I’m on boost too. Hit the double checkmark icon, but while you’re in the replies tab. Def some kind of bug.
Had to do the same thing on connect with all her messages. Wouldn’t let me delete them either. Very strange that it’s a bug that affects multiple clients.
Anyone know why this message doesn’t lose the “unread” tag. I’m using Boost.
Must be a Boost problem. File a bug report.
I had to close the app and reopen it
Same.
Wait I’m now realizing, is that a bong?
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.
Bong or dab rig, definitely.
For some reason I was thinking it was a test tube, but a bong seems more likely.
Also just saw that now!
Does just viewing this thread trigger a message from her wth
she’s watching you…
You have to light two candles, stand in front of your bathroom mirror, turn off the lights, and say “Nicole” three times.
Sorry, who is she? I keep seeing her face in memes.
My gf, back off
Sorry bro, I think she’s cheating on you.
Some spammer
Or some random image used by a spammer… Who can tell?
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.
I’m sure it’s Mbin specifically and just not in the software for some reason.
Ya idk i thought it a bit weird too that we can’t delete messages.
