I got that immediatly after I joined and blocked it from bot behaviour.
Is this a known meme arround here?
Yes, I believe this is the first scam/spam-to-private-mail bot that reached such a wide audience. On lemmy at least.
Been going on for quite a while now, but it’s difficult to block permanently since there are so many instances where they can make an account. Until they’ve used up all the nicole+instance domain names lol.
Unfortunately started seeing some with just a random string for the username. The display name can still be “Nicole”.
Ah shit I forgot about “display name” since I’ve been using voyager app…
I only joined a couple of days ago and have seen Nicole many times already. So I don’t know, but feels like it to me 🤷🏼♀️

It’s made into a meme, but it is real spam. Nobody really knows why the person behind it does it.
