"Listen. And understand. Nicole is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are phished!"
Last time this account made it's rounds, someone found a pic they'd posted of a buttplug with an old, bald white man clearly reflecting back off of the shiny parts. The account immediately deleted the photo after that user pointed it out.
That doesn't answer what their intentions are but they're obviously not good.
I still don't see any settings to block PMs on the mbin side. I would at least like to filter to people I follow or something with the option to fully disable PMs.
Assuming all of you are 35-55 year old obese guys with beards living in your parents' basement kept me safe as a teen and I'm sticking with it now too.
Theres an instance for that stuff actually, lemmynsfw dot com. It is, in fact, not safe for work. Unless you work in the porn industry. Or perhaps as an artist of some sort.
Even then, some of those girls look too young. If you see anything too sus make sure to anonymously report the page to relevant authorities.
I clicked on her video stream months ago when I saw it. It's a real person. She was just typing into a computer, smoking a cigerette. Then I got bored and closed out of it.
I wonder what this bot is trying to do. The friendica being just a weird profile, the discord just had a bunch of confused basement dwellers and I haven't seen any creepy links trying to rob us..
I think the issue is the "random" part of it. If I had a back and forth with someone on a gaming or LGBT or political organizing community, and the exchange was pleasant and they wanted to chat more, I wouldn't be opposed, but if I've never interacted with someone and they are essentially spamming any and everyone the same copypasta, yea that's not someone I want to interact with. Shout out to lemmings that help with Linux too.
I got it, too, banned the sender, and deleted it as it was obviously a scam. But now that it seems to come back, what was it about, actually? Do they just want to harvest data, or what did they want?
Or, **I love you, send me naked pictures and I'll send you naked pictures and then "my father" will find out and contact you to extort money from you for sending and receiving underaged porn images and if you don't send money they'll report you to the police. **
I've only ever received one from them. One of the fediverse's flaws is no central blacklist so if your instance isn't moderated well and actively you're gonna have a bad time.
I think I remember them talking about tools and lists to share between instances but idk what the progress is on that or who was in charge of it.
Almost all of these turn into attempts to get the target to buy into some crypto scam or other.
It's not meant to catch people who are moderately aware, it's meant to catch the stupid, ignorant, and easy to manipulate. Being an obvious scam is part of the utility - it saves time by naturally filtering out anyone who is too aware to actually give them any money.
Ah. Gotcha. It's super annoying. I wish there was a way to block messages based on keywords, but this isn't really the purpose of Lemmy. I guess, neither is scamming people, but here we are.
Oh no

Fucking cunt!
You never call my buggy back!
You out there, Nicole? You listening to this?
He called you so many times and you never call him back
You never call my buggy
Did you hear that, Nicole?
Fuck! Fucking cunt!
Call me back!
It's like the misspellings in the phishing emails: it ensures only people who will fall for the trick will respond. If some model messaged you out of the blue, you're more likely to be suspicious or you feel that you're super attractive and a model might actually reach out to you. Either way you're more likely to not bite on the bait.
Yup. It's why the scams by phone are so irritating to most of us, as another example. It's just obvious and a time waster, but by making the scam easily visible to people who have the characteristics to not be vulnerable to them, it weeds out all the false positives the scammers would then have to deal with. They don't want you, mr. bright eyed and bushy tailed, who is ready to catch them out only after hours of trying to get you to give them the code to your gift cards. That's a lot of wasted time. They just want granny who will follow every direction.
There was a scam on Discord that involved a fake Discord support person. I played along and was trying to get them to send me a malicious link or ask me to do something they shouldn't so I could report them, but they never got around to it. I think they could tell I was wise to it.
Yes. Unsolicited dick pics are sexual harassment, regardless of who you're actually sending them to. Also, I wouldn't put it past people running scams like this to try and use your dick pics for blackmail.
Morally? No. From the perspective of nothing on the internet is ever deleted? Yes. People who get duped into sending nudes will often find (I mean, IF they ever find, realistically, seeing how big the internet it) their picture being used by someone else for another duping operation.
Hi 👋 I’m Nicole👧! But🍑 you☝️ can call me 😅the Fediverse🌍 Chick🐣 :D
I’m a proud😊 Polish🇮🇩 girl👧 from Toronto🇨🇦 (29 y/o)
I’m currently🕑 taking the pre-health❤️🩹 sciences🔣 program at Toronto🇨🇦 Metropolitan🏙 University👩🎓 hoping☺️ to get into👈 the medical🚑 field🏟 someday📆!
unfortunately that involves writing to the instance owner/moderator which is too complex for most. Especially cause it's spread across many instances now
"Listen. And understand. Nicole is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are phished!"
Is it a phishing attempt? I figured it was drive-by malware or camgirl spam or something
Last time this account made it's rounds, someone found a pic they'd posted of a buttplug with an old, bald white man clearly reflecting back off of the shiny parts. The account immediately deleted the photo after that user pointed it out.
That doesn't answer what their intentions are but they're obviously not good.
Is it weird that I feel less threatened by an old white man who owns a butt plug than one who doesn't?
I don't actually know, but I had to finish the quote with something snappy.
Creative liberties?? On my communist Linux forum??? Completely understandable, have a nice day
Get ready to be "pig butchered".
Pig butchered? I'm already halfway there!
Catphished?
There is always that vanishingly small chance this is a real person confused as to why nobody responds and their accounts keep getting banned. :-)
https://xkcd.com/570/
Someone who truly just wants to make new friends! Nooooo
That must be why missy29 now goes by nicole.
"Why doesn't anyone wanna be my friend? I've asked everyone... Asked them multiple times!"
I still don't see any settings to block PMs on the mbin side. I would at least like to filter to people I follow or something with the option to fully disable PMs.
FFS got another one after posting this.
Unfortunately, nothing. Always comes from different instances for me. Whack-a-mole
I mean I want to block my ability to be PM'd at all (or maybe by just people I follow)
Its started hitting the microblogging side of the fediverse.
Well that's a huge red flag right there. Nobody uses Friendica.
@[email protected] is annoyed at you now.
I really do like the project!
Same! Honestly one of my favourite fediverse softwares.
i actually made an account a few weeks back just to take a look at it
You'd doubt the Fediverse Chick‽
Assuming all of you are 35-55 year old obese guys with beards living in your parents' basement kept me safe as a teen and I'm sticking with it now too.
I wish I could grow a beard
On the internet, nobody knows your a baby face.
Doubt
I've blocked like five of their accounts. I wish there was a setting that would block PMs/chats. Anyone who wants to talk to me can do it in public.
CAN YOU PLEASE SEND VEGINE PIC
Here you go! :
https://i.imgur.com/EI7drSl.jpeg
It's so hot, imgur is at capacity and only returns json
Went with a traditional wooly look, eh?
We prefer to think of it as 'nicely trim', tyvm!
I was expecting an a magic lamp with a broccoli-shaped genie or something.
Woah, too hot, I was at work! You should put nsfw in the comment, please...
It's so grey! I mean whatever you're into, no shame here.
Bobs and vageen?
Theres an instance for that stuff actually, lemmynsfw dot com. It is, in fact, not safe for work. Unless you work in the porn industry. Or perhaps as an artist of some sort.
Even then, some of those girls look too young. If you see anything too sus make sure to anonymously report the page to relevant authorities.
Or Spam detection. A standard Bayesian filter would catch these with reports.
Who thought "you can call me fediverse chick" would work? Please tell me no one has fallen for this fucking thing.
I clicked on her video stream months ago when I saw it. It's a real person. She was just typing into a computer, smoking a cigerette. Then I got bored and closed out of it.
Does she know her picture is being used to spam Lemmy?
I gives me "penguin of d00m" vibes
I wonder what this bot is trying to do. The friendica being just a weird profile, the discord just had a bunch of confused basement dwellers and I haven't seen any creepy links trying to rob us..
Still like you more than Putin.
After hearing about this for months, I have finally also been the recipient of them xD
I just find it most amusing that their room for chatting is "hell"
I got only one, but I didn't block it so we'll see.
It's a shame people can't just seek out friends at random for real, but in this day and age it's obviously a scam.
Granted, Lemmy people... idk, I guess a Lemmy friend is the kind you dm when you accidentally break your Linux. Or idk, discuss Marxism? Lol
Blocking doesn't work since they create new accounts on bunch of different Lemmy instances every time.
I think the issue is the "random" part of it. If I had a back and forth with someone on a gaming or LGBT or political organizing community, and the exchange was pleasant and they wanted to chat more, I wouldn't be opposed, but if I've never interacted with someone and they are essentially spamming any and everyone the same copypasta, yea that's not someone I want to interact with. Shout out to lemmings that help with Linux too.
it's from different users on different instances blocking won't work :(
I've gotten 4 or 5 messages from this bot, also since about january.
I reported this bot twice.
I got it, too, banned the sender, and deleted it as it was obviously a scam. But now that it seems to come back, what was it about, actually? Do they just want to harvest data, or what did they want?
Romance scammer, i'd assume.
So, the "I love you, send me money so I can come visit you" thing?
Or, **I love you, send me naked pictures and I'll send you naked pictures and then "my father" will find out and contact you to extort money from you for sending and receiving underaged porn images and if you don't send money they'll report you to the police. **
Got a few myself! Looks like whoever is behind it keep registering on different instances.
Would be interesting to know why they do it
I'm afraid they're doing this to harass whoever's that girl in the picture
What is this, like, the opposite of occam's razor? The least likely, most esoteric possible explanation is the true one?
How that possible? Looks like a random photo, or whatever.
I want to do a deeper investigation to find who is behind it
I agree, maybe its some social experiment
Probably a scam since it always links to other places. Chances are it will be a "investment opportunity" or something related.
You join a group of what looks like real people but it actually is just a bunch of bots that say how good some scam product or opportunity is.
Could also be a harassment campaign.
Well, yeah. Sad.
Can instance admins check her IP?
I've only ever received one from them. One of the fediverse's flaws is no central blacklist so if your instance isn't moderated well and actively you're gonna have a bad time.
I think I remember them talking about tools and lists to share between instances but idk what the progress is on that or who was in charge of it.
What's the purpose of such a message?
Almost all of these turn into attempts to get the target to buy into some crypto scam or other.
It's not meant to catch people who are moderately aware, it's meant to catch the stupid, ignorant, and easy to manipulate. Being an obvious scam is part of the utility - it saves time by naturally filtering out anyone who is too aware to actually give them any money.
Ah. Gotcha. It's super annoying. I wish there was a way to block messages based on keywords, but this isn't really the purpose of Lemmy. I guess, neither is scamming people, but here we are.
I could swear the photos were different for me, but yes I also got the "friend request"
Not Nigerian enough.
Instance checks out
Ugh I know. Do I look like I'm after something like that? Stupid bots.
Wow so many people got it.
I "finally" got one as well.
Me neither. We're so unlovable, even the bots stay away!
Amazing. Like OP, I've lost count.
Oh no

Got one too. What's funny is this is not even a good photo.
looks taken from a video. my guess is it's a random girl who they stole it from.
I think you mean woman
A lot of people use girl and woman interchangeably without meaning it to be demeaning at all.
I've seen women here state that they find it offensive. It is dehumanizing and should be avoided.
Oh, boy
It's like the misspellings in the phishing emails: it ensures only people who will fall for the trick will respond. If some model messaged you out of the blue, you're more likely to be suspicious or you feel that you're super attractive and a model might actually reach out to you. Either way you're more likely to not bite on the bait.
I'm not even talking about the beauty of the woman in the photo, I just mean it's a blurry, poorly-lit photo that's taken at a bad angle.
Maybe that's to make it seem more "real"? I'm not sure.
You're right, but I still think it's the same general principle.
Yup. It's why the scams by phone are so irritating to most of us, as another example. It's just obvious and a time waster, but by making the scam easily visible to people who have the characteristics to not be vulnerable to them, it weeds out all the false positives the scammers would then have to deal with. They don't want you, mr. bright eyed and bushy tailed, who is ready to catch them out only after hours of trying to get you to give them the code to your gift cards. That's a lot of wasted time.

That's kinda rude. Presumably they stole the profile picture from some uninvolved person.
I'm not saying she's ugly or anything this is just a blurry, poorly-lit, poorly-angled photo with no character to it.
Would it be wrong to send it dick pics?
Yes. Unsolicited dick pics are sexual harassment, regardless of who you're actually sending them to. Also, I wouldn't put it past people running scams like this to try and use your dick pics for blackmail.
It's okay, I'll put a little black bar so they can't recognize it's mine.
Morally? No. From the perspective of nothing on the internet is ever deleted? Yes. People who get duped into sending nudes will often find (I mean, IF they ever find, realistically, seeing how big the internet it) their picture being used by someone else for another duping operation.
It stopped for me after 2, then the last 2 days I got 4 more
I feel so honored. Got one of these today.
I've still somehow never gotten one, despite being on here for a while. (I hope this doesn't jinx it lol)

I'm currently taking therapy hoping to leave this bullshit for something meaningful to society!
Hey it is me, John Oliver
I heard everyone is commenting and I thought I would join in. I host a show called last week tonight.
Dibs!
Hey there, this the chick you've been talking about.
I need 10,000 give it to me now
It sure would be nice if you could report accounts as bots.
unfortunately that involves writing to the instance owner/moderator which is too complex for most. Especially cause it's spread across many instances now
Why haven't I gotten one? Where are you all posting?
I am legit curious about that discord server and who is in it
The chat room with a /hell sounds nice.
Other bots
I just got one too
Lol, I got mine yesterday. I'd always felt sooooo left out.
Very tempted to change my display name to Fediverse Chick.
Enjoy everyone, we're living through fediverse history. This is our dancing baby (or maybe more like the "love you" worm).
Has anybody actually followed the links? I'm mildly curious where it goes.
I am curious too. We should investigate.
Instance based skill issue, apparently.
https://lonestarlemmy.mooo.com/u/nicole messaged me with this: https://lemmings.world/pictrs/image/1936a27f-ff82-4ec9-9da4-2942c21ad54a.png
Its just a spambot, not everyone has gotten the message.
