I had no idea of the intentions, but history of the internet says there was maybe 1% chance of being pure and 99% chance of being something malicious, so I just ignored it, figuring it was a bot to dm everyone it could find on the platform.
I got 3 dm's or so too. Is it some social experiment?
Just received my third PM from this person. While s/he (because we don’t know who is actually doing it) is certainly now infamous for their well-known solicitations, it’d still be great to close the door on them.
I got two identical messages from her on separate accounts lol.
Yeah me too. Whoever or whatever this is, is casting a wide net.
I figured at first it's some sort of scam. But then, someone mentioned that it could actually be an anti-Nicole operation, like someone with a grudge against her is trying to get people angry with her, and trying to get people to go troll her discord or whatever. One thing I'm sure of is it's not a normal way for people to interact on Lemmy.
I suspect Nicole is a similar sort of operation to Aidana the pretty lady dentist from Kazakhstan, only aimed at people who’d be more sceptical. So instead of stealing images from a fitness influencer, they got some from a more average-looking young woman and made up a story. If it’s like Aidana, there’s a guy somewhere (probably in the hinterland of Russia or elsewhere in the former USSR) whose day job is to string the people who reply along, lead them into believing they have a relationship with this lady, make sure they’re absolutely sure this isn’t a scam, and then pig-butchering them for all they’re worth.
Or who's to say that "Nicole" even exists?

too many different photos of clearly the same person.
it's easier to grab a photo from a random omegle stream (when it still existed)
Beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes.
I wasnt even aware you could dm people on here until people started complaining about nicole
Toronto, IIRC
Next time I’ll ask her if she’s the daughter of the Nigerian prince.
she claims to be from Toronto, but we don't not if true or even if that's someone else sharing her pictures, Lemmy is not that popular, so could be possible to impersonate and run unnoticed
I don't know but when I checked their profile they had zero posts and zero comments which I have zero trust in so I blocked them
I got a message from Nicole too, would like to know where it came from
I'm also rather curious about this...
