If anyone could answer, where did Nicole the Fediverse Chick come from?

Just got a message from her and I'm feeling pretty special! (I'm kidding!)

No, but seriously. Internet detectives, if you're out there β€” Where did she come from? Does anyone know where these messages first appeared?

  • I received my fourth message from this person this morning! My current theories are it's either a pig-butchering scam, or the person who is behind all the accounts is a person who is obessed with the girl in the pictures and is trying to dox her out of revenge or something. I ran the pictures through TinEye and Google Reverse Image Search, but nothing came up. The slight motion blur suggests they are screenshots of video calls, multiple video calls given that her clothing keeps changing between pictures.

    Whatever the intentions are, I'm sure they're not good because someone mentioned that one of the Nicole accounts posted a picture of a buttplug, and in the photo, people could clearly see an old, balding white man reflecting off of it, and when people pointed this out, the account owner deleted it.

  • I had no idea of the intentions, but history of the internet says there was maybe 1% chance of being pure and 99% chance of being something malicious, so I just ignored it, figuring it was a bot to dm everyone it could find on the platform.

  • Just received my third PM from this person. While s/he (because we don’t know who is actually doing it) is certainly now infamous for their well-known solicitations, it’d still be great to close the door on them.

  • I figured at first it's some sort of scam. But then, someone mentioned that it could actually be an anti-Nicole operation, like someone with a grudge against her is trying to get people angry with her, and trying to get people to go troll her discord or whatever. One thing I'm sure of is it's not a normal way for people to interact on Lemmy.
