 Anyone else getting a ton of female-presenting randos with stock photos, profiles that say they're managers or work in real estate, and no journal entries following them?

They are going to be v. disappointed when they find out that 90% of my public posts are sweary ragefests about Ontario politics.

I had one a few weeks back, but I ignored it.

[sabotabby]

I ignore them but I'm getting them every few days.

Hi honey, my name is Anatasia and I want to chat with u! Find hot singles in your area!

[sabotabby]

Haha. It doesn't even seem like a sex thing tbh. It's more like a "would you like to buy into my MLM scheme?"

Ok, then, would you like to become a Herbalife seller? You'll be able to annoy the shit out of all your Facebook friends! Join Herbalife NOW!

I got one, and when I unthinkingly followed the link in the profile, I was sent to a site my computer blocked on account of malware.

The second one was already suspended by DW by the time I saw the notification and went to report it.

[sabotabby]

I'm glad DW is on it because this is annoying. I keep thinking I made new frens.

Are you sure it's not Ontario politics following you home?

[sabotabby]

They do all look like Tories! Or maybe Tories just often look like stock photos, except for the human skull lady.

I haven't seen the like here on Dreamwidth. Facebook, I'd expect it from. But so far, not so much there either.

[sabotabby]

Lucky?

It's not particularly invasive (nothing like the Tumblr pornbots) but it's irritating.

[notasupervillain]

Oh man, I haven't! Now I feel left out. :(

[sabotabby]

I can direct them your way???

[notasupervillain]

It wouldn't be the same.

This is like when the hot girl offers to pass on some suitors to the nerd girl. It doesn't mean anything if they're not authentic.

[wolby]

I haven't seen any. I think they just like you.

[sabotabby]

I’m flattered!
