It seems I have a new Facebook fan. I logged in and found that she has ‘liked’ 11 of my posts. Oh by the way, I went to her page and she is young, blonde, and beautiful and has a name like a stripper.

What does it all mean? Should I be worried about anything in particular?

Luscious Delight would be one.

I have no doubt it’s a scammer. And not female. And not in this country.

It usually means they’re hoping you’ll follow back to their profile and then visit their OnlyFans or other cam-girl style site. Then give them money.

It’s not actually her in this case making the Likes and stuff but rather she’s working/coerced into a group, probably in Eastern Europe/Russia and she’s being filmed for content while some other dudes are doing the “promotion” and getting most of the money.

One of my nephews dated a girl named Stormi (with the i doted with a heart). She was never a stripper, but the name sure brought it to mind.

Yes, you should be worried that this means you’ve been identified as a lonely middle-aged man on Facebook.

I’ve been getting this a lot the last year or two. It’s kind of depressing seeing how many other guys seem to fall for this scam. Come on guys, have _some_ self respect.

The facebook fan scam I love the most, I see on my idiot congressman’s FB page.

A post gets replied to with some crypto currency investment opportunity. But the only posts that get this reply are from RWNJs. The liberal dems never get them. I guess the scammers know their targets!

Topologically, not a donut. It is part of a homeomorphism with other types of pastry which may, or may not, form good stripper names (cf. “Cherry Danish”).

I was thinking more like картофельный борщ. which is Potato Borscht. My guess at the (Soviet) Russian equivalent of Cherry Danish. 🙂

I used to often get friend requests from these “girls.” But when I removed my gender from my profile, it became much less frequent.

Watch for the sweet little gifs. Bears with hearts coming out their eyes or cute little mice with big beating hearts.

Sure giveaway.😍
