So there is our girl, now she goes straight ahead asking for money lol
I feel bad for the real “nicole” who is probably some innocent woman who got her pics stolen
They keep getting new photos, so she might be in on it.
Or just someone with access to her webcam
When she finds out about this she can do an ama and be a superstar for one day
I like that it is “nicole101” like a tutorial showing you the scam early, so that when you see the og nicole you can already know it’s a scam even though there is no btc there.
I’d love to see a crypto scam that would send money back with the message along the lines of “okay, you shouldn’t have done this. Here’s your money, don’t fall for that stuff again”
Well, I have some good news!

P. S This is actually a charity that accepts btc https://www.cmt4b3research.org/donate-crypto
There is the possibility that this is a copycat. It’s hard to tell since the OG was already using multiple random accounts.
This is not a copycat. This is the official account. The scammer first announced this on the Matrix. I reported first in this post.
Yeah, that though crossed my mind as well. But this pic was not seen before, so I tend to believe it’s the OG Nicole

Can someone update me wtf all this Nicole stuff is about?
Many folks on the Fediverse got random messages from “Nicole” always starting with the string how she’s a 29yo Polish girl from Toronto and inviting people over to her socials.
They come from various throwaway accounts. I personally got about 6 or 7 of those.
As Fediverse doesn’t currently have a robust framework for combating such behavior, this poses a new challenge for the devs. In the meanwhile, this has become a local meme
I’m wondering if there actually was anything there at her socials though. Didn’t she even have a Discord channel?
Yep, those who’s been there said there were quite some Nazis in there, but I didn’t go down this rabbit hole myself, so won’t claim anything.

Ah, now it makes sense! Wonder how many suckers actually paid something?
A grand total of 0.
Both wallets are empty and have no transactions.
GG, Lemmy!
Good. Can you keep us updated?
Just ping me and I will
You can check the wallet to see if you have the bitcoin address.
New Nicole just dropped
Fuck that bitch
Start an onlyfans and show us your shitter Nicole and I’ll decide if youre worth subscribing to once it leaks to Bunkr
Bets: dumptruck or longback?
Ever seen a Striped Appalachian Cave Eel?
No, but can I see yours for 50 tokens?
I feel lied to and taken advantage of. Nicole, I thought we were pals!?
The true pals were the Nicoles we got catfished by along the way.
I miss when she was “bjorky”…
A new picture again, isn’t it? I wonder who the person is. Maybe it’s really the “hacker” or they downloaded their insta? Are the photos even insta material? Where would you upload the variety of images of her? Or are they screenshots from conversations? I kind of want to know but I want it to not be creepy
Might be some omegle screenshots
The current most likely theory of the people that dove headfirst into this seems to be, that she was a small streamer on peertube and other platforms (hence the many different webcam images, too). Looking into the chat of the stream on her peertube account reveals at least one person, that had all their messages removed by her. The linked accounts on the most common spam messages feel more like doxxing attempts, too - with ones like this asking for money most likely being copycats, as in the original messages and linked communities, there was a suspicious lack of asking for money or trying to start contact for a romance/catfishing scam.
This would all point to some kind of crazy stalker trying to doxx this woman for whatever reason, in a pretty weird way. Maybe they hoped it would get us all riled up and hating on her? Maybe they thought by just seeing her, we’d react in some way? Maybe they just wanted the feeling of power to doxx and intimidate her, and no real plan beyond that?
Whatever it is, it really looks more like creepy shit than scam shit at this point, from what I have gathered in the community research that has been happening.

Oh, that is almost comforting to hear, because a clear profit motive that can be linked to the original messages would indeed be pointing towards scam instead of weird stalker. That being said, it sadly would not on its own completely do away with the theory.
I’m waiting for them to come to Lemmy and make a post explaining things. That would be very interesting.
is there an AMA sublemmy?
There don’t seem to be any large ones unless I’m missing it.
Every photo I’ve seen of “Nicole” looks like it was grabbed from a video call, including the fake social media pages someone linked to.
Money, in this economy?
The plot thickens.
She looks angry at me because I’m too poor to help her father.
Sigh. I was hoping for an ARG at least.
