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’ve been hit so many times I should have a purple heart. This screenshot is akin to a NK general showing off his stripes.
That’s wild, I only got hit once months ago. She must really have the hots for you.*wink wink *nudge nudge
I think she only contacted me thrice. Now I’m sad, I think she doesn’t really love me.
I’ve got that same collection and I’m actually excitedly waiting for the red blouse message.
Red blouse? What is this??!
Or sweater? But yeah, the red one. So excited!
Or jumper?
Always found it amusing to call a sweater a jumper
I wonder if there’s a better way to link to external communities without leaving your own instance
I have not gotten hit.
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?
She’s in
VancouverToronto.Edit: corrected location
Mine is in Toronto, but originally from Poland
Imagine if it’s just actually her pulling the most epic troll in Lemmy history.
Hi, I’m The Fediverse Chick, and I’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty!
Hi! I’m the Fediverse Chick, I’ve been trying to reach you about a Nigerian prince heritage.
Hi, I’m the Fediverse Chick, and you’ve won 15 million dollars in the World l0ttery!
Hah. I just got my first one today. I immediately chalked it up to spam, but didn’t know it was so widespread. Hilarious.
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!
The beans where huge too back then
I was there when Lemmy had beans
I need to not poop for three days.
You’ve made me realize I haven’t received it. The fomo is suddenly so real.
Just checking in
Got the same message today as well
I still haven’t been hit:(
Me neither
and her bong
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.
There is go! Thanks!
Lol that was supposed to be there it is.
are you fucking sorry ?
Yes :(
But you can call her the Fediverse Chick
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.
Is the bong turning you off ?
No, she just looks homely to me
Have they made her Jewish now?
Jewish from Poland living in Toronto.
looks like the current iteration is Polish descent, living in Toronto
she was before i blocked her lol. maybe she’s not anymore?
Just got my first one today, she’s not Jewish as far as I can tell
Can someone explain?
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.
I’m more of a lurker so I guess I’m invisible lol
Not anymore!
I almost never comment so this is a test.
I’ll piggy back off your test
Edit: it took 7 hours but I finally got my DM! Woohoo!
I comment loads, but I’m a girl. For science!
Not Lenny!
I still haven’t had one. Go figure.
So you are the unfound one, I see
The first spammer of the fediverse.
You’ll find someone special for you one day 🙏
Got pinged by the spammer earlier today on Mastodon. Nothing on Lemmy yet.
Did anybody ever go as far as to click a link and see what kind of virus it was?
The most famous woman on Lemmy.
The
most famouswoman on Lemmy.What about Oscar-nominated character actress Margot Robbie?
And she doesn’t even know it
Ah she’s on mastodon too?! Hahaha. Nicole will go down in fediverse history and I love it.
