Assuming this is a harassment campaign... does anyone know if the real person in those pictures is aware of this? I could be wrong but remember someone finding her linkedin/some other social media idk? Also the person behind this Nicole spam posted her work place in the matrix room, I think?

Has anyone... like... let her know about this yet? Or we can't actually contact her...?

You’re right. Who would want to know they are unwittingly being used as some scammer’s campaign across the whole of the fediverse; possibly because their computer was hacked and having their webcam used against them? That would just be creepy; not the part where my image is being used by scammers, but because some stranger on the internet made the effort to let me know. 🙄 /s

It doesn't seem likely to me that the images are from a hacked web cam. Much more likely that it's an acquaintance who has spoken to her on video chat.
