Talking to this high caliber lady

[jimwho]

She got the wrong number. She tried to call a girl she met at a party. She is from Las Angeles.

She probably has many "correctors" going at once. This is just what they do, gain trust, ask for nothing, goes on for a year or two sometimes. If she was so into you she would want to meet and shower you with goodies. Careful

@corrector

This feels like a confidence con. This is just experience speaking here man.

Please don’t invest yourself or $.01 in this.

There is a phrase in Latin which is used in jurisprudence:

Cui bono?
Who benefits?

Why is this person taking the time to spend explaining this stuff to you?

How do they benefit?

Maybe she is just doing some karma/good will thing. The Chinese/Eastern people believe in that sort of thing.

She has not seen the rest of my body. She says she hopes I have a good body. She has only seen my face which looks small in proportion to the 40%+ bf. Nah, let her talk about investments before I show her that.

Too address the con theory: she is taking about spot international gold. Is this not within the public domain like anything else? Do you see spot international gold scams? If anyone feels this strongly then post the link as I would like to see that. At this point I do not believe any further information about this girl is warranted. If something like this.is a scam it would be all over the internet in 2023.

Also for people saying I should meet up with her. She says she hates virtual reality and portrayed it as escapism for poorer people. She says she has made enough money to just want real things, places and people, not the VR reality. She made me feel small about the VR. She does not have a VR headset.

OP, I know a lot of us here sound like condescending jack-asses, but we are actually trying to help you here. I too wish a rich babe would show interest in me and make me richer; but like all other really nice sounding things we stumble across on the internet, if it is too good to be true, it is neither good nor true.

This does look like a textbook case as far as some of the scams are concerned. I will write more about her answer when I suggested flying over to LA to meet her. The VR idea was too over the top.

Not a penny will go anywhere in the interim. But if true that is disgustingly low. She likes my mother and is aware we are very badly off so she wants to ruin my credit and screw my family? That is low even for a scammer. No honor with thieves at all?

I can just block her and go on defense attack mode, but will do the research as suggested. I will share these articles with my mother.

Unfortunately, it does brother.
Confidence cons hurt, don't let it get you down.
Don't spend another moment on it.

Scammers can and do target people who are experiencing financial challenges.

 

[corrector]

Yeah, I get that a lot. Wrong number, but hey, maybe you'd like to invest in bitcoin?

I think I may have met your Chinese high caliber woman. Do you have a photo?

Just posted. She is saying good morning a and good evening every day and claims to have an uncle she got investing advice from.

It looks like there is a momentum against her so I dont mind sharing the photos. Have you been pitched by someone looking like her?

 

[Pierce Manhammer]

I reverse image searched the one with the yellow shirt; it popped up cached in a clearly fake LinkedIn profile at:

https://www.linkedin.com/in/ying-chen-4221692b/

The image isn't associated with the account anymore, and there is NO data.

This is clearly a scammer, bro.

It does not match the name on her passport.

Not "her" specifically, but I have been solicited by many similar scams using hijacked accounts or stolen pictures. One scammer made it easy since they used a stolen picture of someone I actually knew. The others were easily exposed by performing a "reverse image search" like @Pierce.Manhammer suggested.

 

[Pierce Manhammer]

No, it does not because it has been changed as has the content on its profile.

Ask for "her" LinkedIn profile for ****s and grins.

It does not match the name on her passport.

 

[corrector]

Termination of contact set for this evening. Playing along. Will just block contact.

And suddenly the linkedin profile has been deleted...i'd clicked the about section and the person had left a gmail address and it was a male indian name like abheneet or something.
