PSA - sugarbook scam attempt

[krupuk]

Longtime lurker. Learnt a great deal from seniors here.

Gonna share a scam attempt from sugarbook. PSA for potential daddies.

Details:
19 Yr old introed and chatted on telegram. Red flag when discussion went to intimate quickly. Tried to be funny with this xmm and gave cock n bull stories about cheap sb met, to bargain down her PPM cost.

Shared a buddy's photo as mine as self destruct pic. Scammer took snapshot (detected on telegram). Another red flag.

Received half face pix from her. Blond highlights with long hair with mask on. Didn't get to take pix of it with another phone. Missed opportunity.

Within 5 min got sweet talk to buying her taobao stuff. Xian half liao. Said no. Cock and bull again of no honey no money.

Now she pissed. Wrote GP essay of how I'm a cheap bastard who's doing shit behind wife's and kids back. (Aren't we all). Well, she's a scammer and a wannabe doxxer.

Threatened to send buddy's pic and whole convo to insta, tik tok and mothership. Closed convo and sent evidence to sugarbook support. Waiting to close case.

But - now some issues. Buddy is good bro who is my lookalike from way back. Any chance of blowback here? Now kinda sian about this.

Also - anyone want to CSI this scammer ? Local Chinese girl. Hangs out at Orchard. Got telegram contact details. Lost nothing so not going to SPF. But damn now my buddy face is linked to my cock n bull.

Advice sought from samsters - how now?

Thanks guys!

TLDR- scammer wants potential SD to pay money before honey. Threatens to dox based on buddy's pix. No money lost, but can't let this threat stand. Advice needed.

Usually such people will threaten but no action one. Cuz she probably did that to alot of men then see which one dumb enough to pay for her shit. Plus her chips is only one photo leh also nothing substantial, even if expose who will bother? And let's say you sabo your buddy until viral(very unlikely). He can easily prove his innocence since really not him.

[Xgenre]

There is also an issue of identity theft. If she blows up the matter and if the issue goes viral, your friend's reputation is gone. May lose job, family or friends. All the more worse as he tries to deny it is him. Better hope she sees no point in drawing attention to herself too.

Next time use an enemy's photo lah. With friends like you, who needs an enemy right? Sabo also don't choose friends and family what.

[MatthewC]

Agreed, who needs enemy with these kind of friends.... LOL! Tschüss

[fatfella]

Wah sabo bro. Use your friend pic. At least use your enemy or some random. Now can reverse search on google with pic. Hopefully she dun find ur friend and maloo him.

[donut88]

One less buddy , one more enemy.

Bro, u damm sabo king. U could have easily Google some other photo and give it to her.

[krupuk]

Yah agreed. Stupid cos I and him can pass off as one another. Will have to find another look alike if want to sb some more. Will look out for any blowback on social media or whatever.

Bros, u ever encounter this sort of nonsense before? U got SOP for such scammers? Haiz so many months of reasonable experiences now time to meet such a lousy one.

Also by right telegram secret photo cannot screenshot. That xmm bitch is prepared to scam so able to capture. Hope any bros here able to take down this criminal. can provide brigade her telegram contact details

Have learnt that having these settings on Android might be the reason. Not going to send such pictures again.

1st of all u shouldn’t have used ur best bud pic la. Internet so many pics then pic some random Asian guy use lor. 2nd, dozing is illegal in Singapore la. U just tell her to go ahead la. See what happens…she wanna try some crazy shit 2 can play the same game lor. Oh btw blackmail is also illegal. She wanna play using social media to harass go try it. Make sure u tell her this so prob she will shut up. Kids these days don’t think before they act so in the end make her look stupid lor. U just report SPF she is a scammer also she liaoz.

Thanks bros for your comments. I hope this experience described here gives positive & negative examples what to do in this situation. Don't let small head take over big head.

So far no offers to CSI the bitch - well let me know if anyone wants to tele her, find who she is and spread her details and nonsense all over SBF.
