Who is Nicole really? Who got messages from Nicole? Who is behind the messages? What is the resolution of Nicole’s profile images? Do I really have to be a racist to join her server? This comment section’s purpose is to collect all that information.

Idk, the Fediverse feels like it’s a niche. Too much effort to scam small number of people.

Also, does anyone got reply from “Nicole” after the initial DM?

Has anyone received any kind of response from Nicole? Or unsolicited contact from anyone, anywhere else after being Nicole’d?

https://www.fortinos.ca/en/store-locator/details/0055 this seems to be the page for the store listed in the Matrix server description. The Matrix description really makes this seem like someone is doxxing her tbh.

I think is a funny meme and everything but I feel uncomfortable with people sharing her pictures. I doubt the real person on the pictures gave concent to this.

Hey y’all, I know this theory might be a stretch, but remember that this could be someone using someone’s name/face without their permission to harass them or frame them or something. Please just keep that in mind as you dig.

It probably is, it looks like a frame grab from a webcam video.

With what appears to be a bong in shot. I can’t imagine someone using such an unflattering photo if they were using their own face.

Eh, it’s more than likely a pig-butchering scam.

The groups that do these are rather unsophisticated and mostly don’t speak english. It would make sense that their poor internet connections only have low quality photos and this is likely just one of many scams with equally-bad photos.

A decent quality photo isn’t that big, even over dialup you can send a better one.
