Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
The Manda Tinder texts below are scams. Therefore, recipients are asked not to respond to them. The scammers behind the text scams will claim they have recently met their potential victims on a dating website and ask them if they would like to meet in person. But, if the potential victims respond to the texts, the scammers will attempt to convince them into sending money or signing up with adult websites that will charge them a fee.

When I said I know this is automated. They replied I'm texting eith fingers so there a person somewhere because they have the ability to respond accordingly. I messed with them awhile. Got a nice pic out of the deal before I stopped answering lol
I just got one from some girl named amanI she called me byron said we met on tinder was in town for a few days and wanted to hook up. Phone number 620-712-9177

I'm back in town rn if ya still want 2 for sure go out this time, are ya up for that?"At least they mixed it up with two feminine names, they almost got me. The weird texting language clued me in, though.the number is 508-419-2255

I responded and then deleted contact. Manda responded again and I blocked her number. Then I got a message that I had 29 viruses detected. Window opened and set me to Google play store to RocketSec antiviral software to purchase. I think RocketSec may be involved with this Manda not scam. Not sure. Why would I be directed to buy RocketSec? Does anyone know about this angle?
“Hey, is this Charles? its Amanda,,, we chatted on tndr before when I came up to visit my aunt but we never met in person... I’m back in town rn if you wanted 2 actually go out this time, r you free?” My sister replied and said her first her name. Then this fake mandy sends a picture. She's blond with some weird top hanging off her shoulders. Be careful with the desperate texts.
My wife just got a message from this "Amanda" She just sent pics and went through the normal messages until I found this site. They didnt get a chance to send a link or ask for money. I assume that is their end goal
I just got the message. Tried googling the number but didn't get any red flags there, so I responded letting them know they had the wrong number. Then they tried to start some scripted conversation with horrible spelling and sent the photo of the woman mentioned (whoever she is, poor girl) and I reversed image searched that and got this page. Had been tempted to mess with them, but who's got time for that? Kinda wish I had tried to convince them I was a Nigerian prince though...
I tried to convince them I’m a Nigerian prince. No luck though. Seems like it’s all automated. Eventually they try to get you to video chat, and send a sketchy link. I’d like to see where the link goes, but don’t want to do it from my cell phone just in case.
I’m messing with them now
this was honestly so freaking funny but you’re better off just blocking them
This also just happened to me. I thought it was a real person, but totally not! Please do not respond with even your name. Just block them!
Just got one as well ... Won't stop sending messages so I'm blocking number
I just got a Manda message 10 minutes ago. I replied wrong number and it sent “Oh this is goofy, how do I look?” I took down the number, created new contact; blocked number to blocked callers, and deleted contact. Very Bizarre. Don’t reply to these!! Thank you for this site.
When I told it I was 100% sure I was speaking to a Nigerian, it stopped responding.
I can confirm that this is a bot/scam, I checked and it could not follow through logical responses. It is to be noted the bot will send a picture of a woman with bleached/faded blond hair. DO NOT CONTINUE TALKING TO IT.
yyyyep, same girl in the photos for me too. I just sent a picture of a raccoon in a dress and then blocked.
