    I got this message yesterday and checked out the matrix server. It was a bunch of anime profiles spewing racist nonsense. Reminded me of 4chan with the vibes. Not for me.

    Hello all! I’m Rose. Also a Fediverse chick. Unlike Nicole I don’t spam people. Also I’m not on Friendica (not many people are) and you probably shouldn’t add me as a friend on any Fedi platform because I’m a hella boring nerd.

    We’re engaged. Will be getting married as soon as my deposit check for half the expenses clears.

      One of the giveaways for me was the complete ignorance of the Canadian post-secondary system.

      She said that she’s taking pre-health sciences at George Brown College. College in Canada means community college (which George Brown is). You take a course, typically 1-3 years, with a specific goal in mind.

      Also, Canadian universities do not offer pre-med or pre-health sciences tracks. You get a degree in chemistry, biology, or whatever, and apply for med school irrespective of the program you are in. One of my classmates was accepted into medical school straight out of chemical engineering. Someone else I know was finishing a degree in Spanish literature when he was accepted into medical school.

    My uninformed guess is the person posting this is NOT the person in the picture.
    Most likely, it’s some weirdo’s bizarre roundabout way of harassing whoever’s picture this is.

      This makes sense to me because why else would they keep creating the same exact account on every instance and sending the exact same message?

      That’s a totally different angle and I hate it. You need to be a special kind of jerk to post someone else’s picture in a spam message.

        If you think about it: have you ever gotten a picture of the spammer itself in an spam message

          Yup. This is 100% the case. Either it’s a stolen image simply used for scamming, either it’s a harrasment technique.

      If you click ln the socials she shares, she is active there and seems to match the profile picture with the content she uploads.

    When the cost to try something is virtually zero, you don’t have to try very hard. If only one in ten thousand people will fall for a scam, then millions of attempts will still get you thousands of successes.

      Maybe try again? I received at least six from them. Maybe that’s how it’s supposed to be. /s
