This reminds me of once when I was playing the original EverQuest. Someone named Dunn entered the zone and everyone there started OOC broadcasting anything from “Dunn!” to “Dun dun duuuuuuuun!” I was young and sheltered and didn’t get the reference; I messaged the guy something like “what was that all about?” and apparently he didn’t, either. Probably pretty fun to be that popular for thirty seconds for no known reason, though.
Is that what you meant? Based on the result when I load the page, it doesn’t seem reference worthy, but I don’t know of anything else that would be a solid meme.
This isn’t meant to attack you or your comment, just resolve my own lack of knowledge.

There’s a butterfly meme to make here, not sure if it should be aimed at the scammer or the reposts

This girl is insane, literally…
4 spam messages from 4 accounts on 4 different instances , even after I asked her to stop because I’m not interested, even after I banned her and after I reported her, she continued to send the messages as if she didn’t have an atom of dignity and self-respect that prevents her from continuing with something that might expose her to some insults at the very least.
In the last two times, it seems that she banned me after she sent the messages so that I can’t do anything about it
Because of her behaviors, I was thinking of requesting the feature of disabling inbox, or at least disabling inbox notifications so that I don’t recieve a notification of whatever she send…

The very first time I can remember getting spam, I was approximately seven. It was an email linking to a porn site, not that I understood that at the time; I don’t actually recall what enticed me to click - I think they referenced “playing in a jungle” and that sounded fun. The text said (roughly, it’s been over three decades) “come look at my site! I’m not wearing any clothes!” and linked to a site featuring several scantily clad individuals but, immediately on entry, a lady in high heels and nothing else.
I took the email at face value and responded, informing the surely real person sending it that shoes counted as clothes.
As the owner of !nicole@feddit.org and member of the feddit.org matrix channel, the latest thing we suspect is, per @Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org, that it’s recorded footage from legitimate livestreams (on peertube and twitch), which where sometimes linked in messages, as revenge or doxxing.
i have to assume these photos were stolen from someone who didn’t consent to being involved in this, in which case it’s really not fair to spread these even more

Too late. For better or for worse, it’s already a meme.
threaded - newest
There’s a whole community for this! c/nicole@feddit.org
I think you meant !nicole@feddit.org
Hold it. There a phone number?
867-5309 (just a guess)
My most recent one didn’t have a number. Maybe just someone pointing out open sign up instances to banish? Haven’t bothered to look too far.
She really wants to make friends!
ffs stop feeding trolls and spammers
People being excited about getting spam from a scammer.
What a time to be alive…
Not a new phenomenon in human nature or on the Internet, by itself. On some wikis (e.g. en.wikipedia.org) there used to be extensive lists of “notorious vandals”, then people realized that this only encouraged them further, now this is more limited, but there still is en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse
What’s the scam?
Nobody knows because nobody who’s tried to follow through has reported anything happening.
Nobody knows because nobody who’s tried to follow through has ever come back. Dan Dan daaaaaan!
I read that Dan Dan Daaaaaan as the anime not the dramatic music at first and that was kind of hilarious. I probably need sleep.

You get scammed into a healthy lomg lasting friendship with a polish girl from Toronto.
It’s just fun that it’s happening here. Feels like the platform is maturing.
😂 I’ve gotten two of these so far, and I’ve only been here a week.
I’ve been on here for 2 years and haven’t had any 🥺
Same
Got my first yesterday! Praise to the fediverse chick
Legends say she was the first person on the fediverse
Not the first person, but certainly the first and only chick
She’s myspace Jim, transitioned Edit: Tom, myspace Tom
If I look up “Myspace Jim,” I get this: myspace.com/jim

For what it’s worth, when I read your comment, my thoughts went to “it’s worse than that, he’s dead, Jim, dead, Jim.”
Tom, I meant Myspace Tom. todayifoundout.com/…/ever-happened-everyones-frie…. Sorry for the confusion. He was everyone’s “default” friend on Myspace.
Myspace Tom I know. Thank you!

I don’t think it’s a she.
tbh pronounces don’t matter in this issue, whoever that person is, it’s unwanted spam
I don’t refer to the pronoun but to the fact it all looks like a doxxing campaign or something.
It’s spam. They don’t care what you say.
Well I assumed trying is better than nothing, I only tried once though
No, it shows the bot you are active in chat, so they spam you more.

It is the fediverse welcome package.

That’s not good. Revenge / doxxing on this scale should be followed up on.
