Bay Area Scam Surge?

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed a sudden increase in scammers around the Bay Area over the past couple of days?

    Please report suspicious accounts so moderators can look into them/close them if they appear to be scammers.

    Be cautious of members asking for deposits that do not have the pink "professional" tag on their profile page.

    Be cautious of users that are trying to quickly take conversation offsite.

  • Don’t fall for profiles like Rebecca2Delaney2. The initials of that profile name is R2D2. Certainly a cyber risk.

  • Couldn't r2d2 just be a star wars fan w a good sense of humor?

  • @AtrueOG The one with the good sense of humor IS @TheFunCartel

  • Another pattern I’ve noticed is that these profiles tend to be relatively new. Keep an eye out for that as well, and stay safe!
