Hello, my perverted friend.

[-] dmention7@lemm.ee 60 points 1 year ago

I've come to wank with you again.

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains

Congrats, y'all are the first ever post in Lemmy Sings!

I had a terrible flashback of Reddit where everyone would make the same reply over and over and over

You pos

Edit: I don’t mean it, I love you

[-] Vedlt@lemmy.world 77 points 1 year ago

I think if they have videos of me jerking off they owe me money, not the other way around. That's how onlyfans works right?

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

My likeness is owned by PornHub and our legal team will be in touch.

Please remain where you are.

[-] mjhelto@lemm.ee 22 points 1 year ago

I work as a sysadmin and had a user in my building call us about one of these emails. I didn't say it out loud but, if it wasn't true, why would he even feel the need to ask if it was real or possible?

[-] doublejay1999@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

Probably doesn’t need saying, but no matter how tempting- NEVER reply. That just gets you put on an even better spam list.

[-] 018118055@sopuli.xyz 17 points 1 year ago

Earlier they used breached passwords associated with the email address to try to add some credibility. They don't bother now. Just another scam meme to join the rest for eternity.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I can confirm they do still bother; I received an email doing this earlier this week.

[-] 018118055@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Ok, I stand corrected. I think the original scam is just outnumbered now.

[-] FarraigePlaisteach@kbin.social 15 points 1 year ago

"I'm actually considering doing this for a living, so please go ahead and make me famous. Maybe we can collaborate".

Seriously though, as said elsewhere, never reply to these.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

You got video of me jerking off for free!? I charge extra just for getting to look at it. Bitch you owe me money, not the other way around!

What op should say to them

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 11 points 1 year ago

The first rule of blackmail: supply proof. Not hints or riddles; proof. If they don't attach pictures (or a severed thumb, whatever) it's nonsense.

From the spammers' perspective, though, they sent millions of emails like this at basically zero cost; my catch-all mailbox for five domains gets about a dozen a day. If one moron pays up it's work it to them.

[-] Ep1cFac3pa1m@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I’ve gotten that same one a couple of times, even giving me an old password for my email to try to make it look legitimate. Only problem is they always say they got me on my webcam, and I don’t have a webcam to catch me on 🤷‍♂️

[-] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Damn. 5 Times a Day? Aren't you getting sore or anything?

[-] KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Who even has their webcam pointed that low?

[-] pacoboyd@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

I can appreciate that the plot twist wasn't: "I don't jerk off"

[-] THEDAEMON@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Man asexuals will blow your mind

Invest some time in transferring to a new email address but also an email alias service. That way you never give out your new email address to anyone and give each site/service you use its own alias.

Often a low-effort alternative to this is to use the "plus addressing" trick: username+whateveryoulike@domain.tld

The example above routes to username@domain.tld, but you can track and filter on the extra tag portion.

Granted, it doesn't have universal support, but it's somewhat widespread at least.

[-] Swarfega@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This works but has a number of downsides.

Eg hackers just have to remove the +portion to have your email address. You also can't send emails out via any of those addresses.

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It sure would be awkward, but I don't think I would even be concerned enough about a video like that. It wouldn't even show the thing I'd be watching.

[-] Crack0n7uesday@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Threaten them with a copyright strike...

[-] ook_the_librarian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Have they learned nothing from that plagiarism video?

[-] finthechat@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago
[-] paddirn@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

That's cool, I mean, I guess people might pay you to stop showing a video of me jerking off to them, that's probably horrifying for other people to see.

[-] sxan@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

No, I get it. They'll need expensive therapy after watching that.

[-] Pyramid8058@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

My boss got this one once. He asked me if we needed to scan our network for malware.

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 5 points 1 year ago

That raises more questions...

[-] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 4 points 1 year ago

I love spammers who try to shame me into paying them. Good luck trying to kink shame a furry who's given up hiding it. You try doing that and I'll show you the kinda porn that makes me uncomfortable.

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I'm laughing as I type this but I am in fact scared to even imagine what could.

But furry porn is a thing? Really? Outside manga and that sort of medium? That sounds hilarious to watch!

Yeah this is an old ones I've seen it evolve over the years. I always read it out to my partner so we can laugh.

I also never click links I emails, but this has been going on long enough that they must make bank off of morons who are doing things they are afraid of others to know about, and I bet some pay each time they get this.

I would be out about 14k USD by now if I were paying.

[-] dipshit@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

You think people would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?

[-] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

These days if I felt inclined to respond I’d just tell the scammer that somebody already created deepfake AI porn of me so nothing they could possibly have to release would bother me…

[-] TheMadnessKing@lemdro.id 3 points 1 year ago

Plot Twist: They downloaded WebCam

[-] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

they gotta pay me licening fees to depict my awestriking appendage's likeness. Imma copyright strike them and their moms

[-] TedJ70@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

You don't have any webcams, that you know of.
