Funnily enough, I had never got 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?
Yoga@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
Just got it an hour or so ago.
Can someone explain the con?
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
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.

Probably pig butchering but I’m not aware of anyone that’s went in and came back with a story yet
fadingembers@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 weeks ago
Worried how unusable this place will be if real spammers find their way here
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
I expect the software to improve. The “fediverse chick” spam is the perfect opportunity to test countermeasures.
zqps@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
DMs don’t worry me that much, but botted content, upvotes and comments would kill the platform like any other.
umbraroze@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Botted comments and admins not in the helm.
I’ll admit, the thing that made me go from Kbin to Lemmy was seeing tons of spam on unmoderated places. (Not blaming the admin for not being able to manage the site in that particular case, they had more pressing issues.)
azalty@jlai.lu 4 weeks ago
Yea, that’s the thing that scares me
nonfuinoncuro@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
this is why I’m ok staying small and never going mainstream, honestly I had hoped that for reddit pre 2010 but by mid 2010s it was already too far gone
Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 4 weeks ago
Perhaps a way to limit how fast new instances are able to post and tools to identify those causing spam
InFerNo@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
That won’t stop anyone. Just spin up 50 instances and let them sit for a while until they’re not so new anymore.
Then when you need one, grab one off the shelf that’s been riping for a while.
It’s only a bump when they get started.

Got my first Nicole today. Made me kinda happy ngl lmao
Blackmist@feddit.uk 4 weeks ago
I’ve only got a Sara. She doesn’t put nearly as much effort in.
Syun@retrolemmy.com 4 weeks ago
Me too! Yesterday was my first day here, and Nicole was the last thing I got before I went to bed.
LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I’ve been here since the reddit blackout and Nicole just ignored me until now lmao
CannedTuna@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
Same! I feel like I’m part of the
haremclub now!LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Hell yeah!
WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 weeks ago
Wait…you mean we aren’t soulmates? 😭
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
You may still be soulmates, but you’re certainly not the one dating her.
Agent641@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Lemmy is so far left that we all share a communal girlfriend
anon@reddthat.com 4 weeks ago
Is that a crack pipe😭
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
Nicole seems to be experimenting.
IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Stay in school Nicole!(George Brown College specifically)
UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
Looks like a bong to me
Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Wow. They started to get “creative”.
Does anyone know if this image is AI generated or is it just stolen?
Microw@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
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
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
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
PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de 4 weeks ago
Wait I’m now realizing, is that a bong?
Benjaben@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Yeah Nicole appears to be enjoying yonder broccoli
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
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.
Banana@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
Bong or dab rig, definitely.
isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 4 weeks ago
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
For some reason I was thinking it was a test tube, but a bong seems more likely.
undeffeined@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
Also just saw that now!
Omgboom@lemmy.zip 4 weeks ago
I’m starting to feel really left out
Lennnny@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
We need a neverbrokeabone community for Nicole-less people.
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
I may not be the Fediverse Chick, but if it helps, I can DM you.
Clbull@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 4 weeks ago
I keep blocking it, but…
Penta@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I still have not received a single nicole dm :(
mostlikelyaperson@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I got my first one an hour ago, truly an honor.
DesolateMood@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
Same. I vaguely remember a post from a few days ago mentioning a fediverse chick and now I finally know what it was talking about
neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 weeks ago
I can forward you mine if you want
jewbacca117@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Same. I feel so left out :(
Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de 4 weeks ago
also just got a message with her new outfit
looking good, nicole :)
Speculater@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Do we love our girlfriend or what?
TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 4 weeks ago
It’'s a social experiment, and this thread is part of the plan.
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
Hands off, buddy. She’s mine!
Symphonic@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Got Nicoled today
secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 4 weeks ago
Damn I didn’t get one with the new outfit yet :(
I really hope Nicole just becomes a huge fediverse meme
ColdWater@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
I only got 1 massage from her 5months ago, now she ghosted me :(
DeMonstratio@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
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
CTDummy@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
Finally got blessed with an inbox from Nicole today and found this post. Hope this lady at least sent these images to someone and it’s not just someone creeping on their cam.
onyxjet@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I joined the club today.
RobotZap10000@feddit.nl 4 weeks ago
Whoever hacked this poor fellow’s webcam seems to have captured a much better photo to use in their scams.
khannie@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Got my one today. Finally part of the gang.
Has anyone actually bothered engaging?
Oaksey@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
gigachad@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
I an so happy the Fediverse chick wrote me a DM, which really means Lemmy is growing!
WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 4 weeks ago
Don’t encourage it, we don’t want it to lay eggs.
Corno@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
I didn’t realize you could send or receive direct messages on Lemmy until I got sent this!
I recently got my third one… 😅
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I wonder if the actual woman in the picture is aware of all this. Be kind of wack if it was just a hijacked webcam.
AutistoMephisto@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Wait, so this is spam? And y’all knew about this? She sent me a DM, too. Guys am I compromised?
CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 weeks ago
Has anyone gone to her other links? Matrix, discord, etc?

cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 4 weeks ago
I told her not to message strangers on the internet yesterday. I feel she might be cheating on me.
coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks ago
The only stranger on the Internet, my dear stranger, is YOU! You’ve been played! She was ALWAYS MINE!
