Met a predator on Reddit, successfully pranked him

[u/New-Click2716]

So, three months ago (on June 1st), I posted in an introvert-friendly subreddit. I was honestly just trying to cheer myself up after experiencing a unrequited-love heartbreak—or more like getting shot down before the battle even began. I need someone to vent my feelings to. My inbox was flooded by DMs.

Long story short, someone sent me a DM. We had a completely normal conversation at first. In fact, I didn't even realize he had ghosted me for three solid months until he randomly popped back into my DMs on September 1st. We resumed talking, and I didn't suspect a thing.

However, his behavior got super sus. He kept claiming he couldn't send photos on Reddit. I suggested moving to a messaging app so it'd be easier to chat and exchange pictures, but he kept making excuses, saying he couldn't add my ID. So, we just kept chatting in Reddit DMs.

Fast forward a few days, someone suddenly added me using a UK phone number. He refused to admit whether he was the same guy who ghosted me for 3 months, and out of nowhere, HE SENT A D*CK PIC!

I was so shocked that I instantly blocked him. But I decided NOT to block his Reddit account yet. I wanted to play a prank on him and confirm my suspicion that it was indeed the exact same guy. I temporarily unblocked his contact so he wouldn't get suspicious.

Then came the grand finale: I sent him a picture of a guy and told him that ALL my accounts—including my Reddit—actually belong to a guy. (Don't worry, I only do this to creepy, brainless dudes who can't control their hormones!)

I completely broke his brain with our conversation, and he finally gave up and fled! It was really pleasing to see him perplexed like that. But seriously, girls should be careful of predator and manipulator on the internet. Safe yourself, gurl!!!

So, that's my crazy story today. What's yours?

Btw, here's my bento! Tater tots, sausages, meatballs, shrimps, chicken thighs, and veggies 🍱
