I received this scam message today! I’m not even the first person to receive this scam and then make a post about it!

Hi, I’m Nicole! But you can call me the Fediverse Chick :D
I’m a proud Polish girl from Toronto (29 y/o)
I’m currently taking the pre-health sciences program at Toronto Metropolitan University hoping to get into the medical field someday!
You can add me on Friendica: [redacted]
Watch me stream on Peertube: [redacted]
She just messaged me again from *feddit.rocks
Please don’t post the photo.
That could be stolen and cause someone to target an innocent person.
Some folks have been saying that the photo and looped stream are being used by a stalker to impersonate her. No clue on the validity, but you definitely shouldn’t post the photo either way.
Done.
Catfishers and pig butchers should be memed until they become so famous they can’t scam anyone. =D
make it a bit more clear that this is calling out a scammer. Also, change the links
Done.
Thank You! 💖
How do I get rid of this message notification? Every time I hop into Boost I see the notification, and even though I’ve looked at this message before it doesn’t get marked as read.
the inbox page should have a mark all as read button, try that
if you’re trying to leave other things unread, you’ll probably have to manually mark them unread after, if boost supports that feature (i’m actually not too sure)
