I’m surprised at how fast it was, I only joined a couple of days ago.
Oh I recieved the same message and thought it was some kind of scam.
Yes
Thats pretty quickI have a few accounts, and only received this particular spam twice in a few years of Lemmy.
I woke up to three Nicoles from three different accounts, once.
You stay the he’ll away from my Lemmy waifu
Ooh, you’ve found the rare and coveted red shirt Nicole. You’re truly one of us now.
They gonna be like Pokémon cards now?
Yes. I’ve already got two variations of the white shirt Nicole.
I have this red one and a white shirt from 3w ago in my inbox. Got to get them all.
You guys make me feel like i’m missing out :(
Your time will come. Patience, my young padawan.
But what if she finds the one before she finds me? :(
She’s on a roll!
I wonder whether the person in the photo will ever find out that she became an internet microcelebrity here.
What do you mean? This is Nicole, Fediverse Chick.
I can imagine someone creating a community as a fanclub for her.
Edit: oh, that community does exist. For some reason my instance can’t find it.
Edit 2: It’s !nicole@feddit.org. You added a d
Alright, just edited it
How do I delete it? If I try, I get an error saying system messages cannot be deleted…
Are we taking this and making it a Lemmy thing?
It seems like a good place to start.
I got that immediatly after I joined and blocked it from bot behaviour.
Is this a known meme arround here?
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 🤷🏼♀️
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…
It’s made into a meme, but it is real spam. Nobody really knows why the person behind it does it.
I wonder what the actual drive is for these messages. Phishing?
You have been blessed by the patron saint of Lemmy. Say 3 hail Nicoles.
Hail Nicole Hail Nicole Hail Nicole
My heart goes out to Nicole
Might get a rare nicole if you do that
This has been bugging me for a while now, what is that in front of her?
It looks like a bong, but I don’t know enough about drugs to be sure.
Dab rig.
That’s 100% what it is
It’s not a bong its a vase
A vase that’s used for ‘incense’
