    I think the funniest part about that spam message is they didnt even try to do a good picture. Like it looks like a screenshot of someone in a early morning zoom meeting about to fall asleep. If your gonna try and catfish why wouldnt you choose a better photo??

      I mean, scammers aren’t exactly the smartest tools in the shed (but usually the toolest), but this one seems especially weird. Like, wouldn’t they at least notice this whole campaign became a huge meme at this point?

      I’m thinking, it’s an attempt to be more succesful with nerds like us? I gotta admit I thought it was possibly a real person the first time I saw it, I’m more than desensitized to supermodel looking asian pictures from when I was on dating apps and occasionally reddit. I’m guessing just a non horny, non model, claiming to be studying in STEM is trying to avoid the obvious red flags for people that know supermodels probably aren’t into them.

    I never wanted DM functionality and can’t turn it off.

    Got a few empty DMs that are functionally unremovable from notifications so I’ve blocked the notification element, I wouldn’t know if I got a DM any more.
