At the start of the pan, someone advertised nude media to make extra cash during the initial lockdown. I sent the $20 or whatever it was. Turned out they wanted to draw more cash and that was only the opener. Felt like a scam and I blocked them. Felt I had been conned. Never knew if that’s true for sure.

Otherwise, only shitty products and services that came from corporations.

So you paid for nudes, they sent you one, then tried to get you to buy more?

They sent a set of pics and vids.

Idk this doesn't feel like a scam. You paid for something, they sent it, they said "you want more? More money please." Did you want more for free? I don't get it.

No, they didn't offer to sell more media. They directly asked for free money with a sob story.
