I got it too. Looks like maybe they were banned because it disappeared from my inbox

I thought maybe it vas a weird quirk of friendica, but yeah this seems more focused

Ayyy we're.....winning?

Yeah this was the first thing that i saw in the morning and it was so surreal. I literally woke up, grabbed my smartphone, went to lemmy inbox, and saw this message three times in a row. Clicked through all of them, then fell back to sleep, only to wake up an hour ago and now i see this meme. I guess i wasn't dreaming this up after all.

I've been getting a different one for awhile trying to rope me into a crypto scam

who is the woman in the picture? I saw a couple stills randomly posted in comments too.

i posted this in my instances meta community, im not sure if defederating is the best option, but it sets a warning.

Maybe those who got spammed have something in common? There's no complete list of users on Fediverse, but it could've targeted a list of users it have seen somewhere, or like community admins, or whatever. I haven't been spammed although I have a fairly active acc.

I got one from her/it yesterday evening. Also a few days before that I got a creepy DM from some rightwinger trying to convince me that there not a fascist Nazi presence and that "people don't even know what those things are as they haven't lived through them".

Never got a DM before that. My guess is lemmy is big enough or rather left enough for federal intervention and psyops are starting if they haven't already.

If you think that's new, come on over to the nsfw side of things. We have a whole cast of zany butts.

I just got a couple of these today myself.
