Well the intresting thing is that one of your contacts accepted the invitation.

could be that the friend was phished out of their account, I think something similar goes around on Facebook

[–] supercriticalcheese@feddit.it 9 points 1 year ago

Yes possible, happens somewhat frequently.

One of contacts suddenly become an atractive looking asian woman and owner of some company. Both of which were extremely unlikely based on my recent conversation I had with him.

Many scams are intentionally sloppy to filter out attentive or suspicious people. It saves time.

I don’t know. CEO of Golmdman Sachs sounds pretty classy. Tell her you got a wad of 100s

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

When going to bazaar, I hate it when they add butchering fees. Damn Porketmaster.
