Someone tried to scam me on Space Hey
Just to let you know, people;
A person - > https://spacehey.com/profile?id=4533234
Wanted to add me yesterday on discord with this handle; richard_blake7
He offered money for attention. I started chatting with him for completely FREE, about HIM.
Then he said, "You are too inquisitive and it’s kinda annoying. I should be the one doing the talking not you" When I told him, I'm not gonna accept money for my company, and I only converse if I can get to know the other person and like them, he responded; "If you can’t allow me to do that then good bye" I don't know how he's planning to scam you out of money, but my ideas are;
Scammers often start with a believable payment offer and then move into one of these situations:
🔴 "I sent the money, but PayPal says you need to upgrade your account first."
🔴 You receive a fake PayPal email claiming you must pay a fee before receiving the funds.
🔴 They "accidentally" send too much money and ask you to refund the difference.
🔴 They send a fake screenshot saying the payment is pending.
🔴 They ask you to verify your identity by logging into a fake PayPal website.
🔴 They eventually move the conversation to gift cards, cryptocurrency, or bank transfers.
Take care, and don't believe everything, that sounds like a good deal! :)
The transcript for the conversation:
-I wanna discuss something with you probably you might have interest
I'm all ears:D
so what if I asked you to be my texts partner ?maybe sometimes calling,if that’s gonna be okay with you! basically i was just looking for someone attention, I mean someone i could talk to often and share ideas with while I pay you weekly allowance of $400 for few weeks, mind you nothing like sexual stuff is involved ,I just need your attention here whenever you are free.
hm... I'm a bit surprised. Now, why would you pay for attention?
lol ,you really have nothing to think or worry about ,I won’t even pressure you to talk to me always just because I’m paying you ,I know you have your own life to live as well so I don’t expect you to be here talking to me all the time, I’m a philanthropist so I have more than enough and I’m using this opportunity to help financially,just see me as a blessings or bonus to you, Like I said before nothing like sexual harassment and I just need you to talk to me whenever I’m down or sad ,we can always talk about video games ,movies ,musics, novels and sports ,I will be paying you $400 as your weekly allowance and I’m starting right now but If chemistry sets in we can move further but for now just make me happy and feel cared for but if chemistry did not set in we can still keep a good conversation . So my main responsibility is to make sure you're financially stable so I'll be giving you an allowance every week.
I get you.. but you don't even know me yet. What if I'm an asshole, and terrible to talk to?
I don’t care
why?
Like I said before I’m a philanthropist so I have more than enough and I’m using this opportunity to help financially so see me as a blessing or bonus to you
So how do you chose your people?
I follow my instinct
Yeah, but I mean... What are you looking for? There must be something that you specifically like.
I just explain everything on here. Maybe you should go back and read it again .
no, you don't get me. You gave me a script. I'm asking for a mind. What kind of people make you happy?
Funny people , interesting people and intelligent people. It depends on the chemistry. As times goes on we get along with each other. It also depends on your interest I love movies ,videos games and novels,so if you love them too then I guess our bond will be mutual and strong.
What kind of movies ,videos games and novels do you like?
Adventure movies and adventure games I love horror novels and love novels too.
What is you biggest favourite, and why?
I don’t have favorite. I don’t really have specific favorite.
So you never had one that you enjoyed more than the others?
I have favourites every months lol. So I don’t really have favorites lol.
Okay, that's good enough. What do you like best this month?
Movie?
Anything that stayed with you longer than the others:) Game, book, movie.
As for the movies. The magic far away tree. As for the games. I’m playing mortal combat 2026. As for the novel. No where burning.
Hm.. and what did you think of them? What did you like in them? How about mortal combat? Have you played the older games too?
They are fun. And yes I have played COD. Let’s forget about all these for now. You are interested right ?
I don't know. I'm happy to keep talking if we enjoy each other's company. Money isn't necessary.
Money is necessary. I got gotta pay you first before anything.
Why?
If you won’t take my money I guess we can unfriend each other. Please don’t ask me why. You are too inquisitive and it’s kinda annoying. I should be the one doing the talking not you.
Conversations don't work like that. You wanted attention. I gave it for free. Yes, I am inquisitive. I care about the people I give my attention to. If that's annoying, I'm not the right person for you:)
I wanna pay you period. If you can’t allow me to do that then good bye.
ok, good bye^^
