olaeusouoarturok Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Today I got a message from someone called myrl3esu5 saying "twõ wõrd qųòtéEvèrýthìng cóůnts òláëűsòůòàrtūròk" and I'll be honest, it scared me haha. I posted it on reddit and they just said it's a bot but it's weird to me why someone would make a bot just to send quotes. Did anyone else get messages like this? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DaivRules Posted November 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2019 Yes and I report them all. Make messages friends only to avoid getting them from your non-robit (Futurama reference, not a typo) friends in the future. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto_lsi Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I used to get messages like this all the time, until I blocked all incoming messages from non-friends. It started when I started playing Rainbow Six Siege again earlier this year. My guess is it's related because I 'meet' a lot of random people playing that game, and I don't play any other online games, and even while playing I'll get random friend requests and messages from people in that match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmao i will report I just found it weird why a bot would send that specific message but I'm glad to know others had similar experiences 5 minutes ago, Matto_lsi said: I used to get messages like this all the time, until I blocked all incoming messages from non-friends.

Lance_87 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Yeah i met one of those bots last week, i started writing random letters and "she" kept replying, asking me if i wanted to see pictures of her bewbs. If you write "Hello my real name is Amanda, im 21/f and pretty bored searching 4 someone to talk too... how old are you?" it's a known one lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClintonLS90 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 All the time. I usually get spam messages from alleged gamer girls simply wanting to talk..... about my credit card info that is 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaan60 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Sony really needs to do something about these spam bots. Start issuing out console bans. It's getting worse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyondthegrave07 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I've never gotten these messages until a few months ago, and now, it's like once a week! Always report them or they'll never get punished by Sony. Takes a while, but they'll eventually take them down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumperklever Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I'm happy that I don't have too much spam, but 1 is botter is pretty active on me. Funny thing is that he want me too pay, but gave different reasons: - "hey we have cheap games, please pay." - "we are from sony, you have a suspicious account, pay up" - "we hacked you and to unblock you need to pay" And all needs to be paid to the same reference. --- On work(mail) I always gets stalked by Steve Brown. Steve has worked in a span of 5 months at 5 different companies (domains). But Steve is still holding on to sell me that market analysis. Why Steve gets fired every month is beyond me, seems like he is putting some dedication in his work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mina Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 If you try to have a conversation with the bots that say something like “Hey I’m a lonely girl looking for friends hit me up”, they’ll send you nudes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Don't worry, you'll eventually get more. Like from girl1555836 (with different #s of course eevrytime) etc....with messages like they really like you and you should look at their profile for a surprise...

MandA60VISE Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I've only gotten two messages and both were from "cam girl" bots. I know their responses are set no matter what you reply but it was entertaining to watch them keep hitting on me after proclaiming, "I'm gay," or, "I'm waiting for marriage."

Popular Post AK-1138 Posted November 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2019 Stop giving OP false reassurances, guys. You know as well as I do that the PS4 in question is obviously haunted. Assuming they survive this ordeal, I hope OP will at least have learned never to buy a used PS4 from a yard sale at a house that's known to be abandoned for decades... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HusKy Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Mine said "Think different HusKyCode" with accented characters all over the place. It wasn't the usual spam bot stuff that is trying to lure you to visit some website. Weird bot indeed, I guess someone was bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldPickle1080 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I turned off the option to let people search for my real name and I stopped getting bot messages completely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennethMcCormick Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 When I get "messages" like that, I just delete and block. Last time I reported an obvious spam/ad message, the only answer from Sony, which I couldn't reply to, was a warning about false reporting...
