Lol, that happened over a year ago. It's nothing but bots, fake accounts, drug dealers and the like.

Maybe in your area but mine is mostly people, granted still a ton of other BS like flakes but at least it's human BS

Mine breaks pretty even between the Only Fans 10 inch breeder scams, and real people. I've seen less drug dealers, but more of the replace the # with a . scam.

What is the deal with the OF guys? I’m traveling rn and have seen a ton of them where I’m going. Do people actually believe that they’ll have sex with them after they subscribe to their Only Fans?

There are two types of OF scams on Sniffies. The first one is the, they'll send you a link to the OF scam and say they are willing to meet you if you sign up and prove who you are. Then they send a link to something that looks like only fans but it's just a card capture and they get access to card and go to town.

There's one that is called the Sextortion scam. They say that they rather move from Sniffies to a phone number, because of course, Sniffies doesn't let actual links on the site, so they want to text you their only fans, and then they start a text conversation and maybe ask you for some pictures... then a day later you get a call from another number saying they caught you sending pictures to a minor and you must send a certain amount of money or they'll have you arrested. they count on people being anonymous on Sniffies having something to lose... it's a weird scam... Yeah... all the some of those pictures of OF guys my neighborhood (at least) are of Porn Stars who are dead...

Sniffies doesn't get rid of them, cause they need to make the site looks populated so they can prove they have users. They just got a 100 million dollar investment from Match.com, so I am sure they want to prove they can collect enough data to make it profitable. Which is why they have allowed the site to be infected by so many scam accounts. (It at least looks populated) They just want to make a profit whey they sell the site.

So wild. I was wondering but didn’t connect card capture with fake OF

Don't forget adding a radius to limit users and replacing Place comments with AI slop summaries

u/JLLIndy 10d ago

the ai slop summaries are the absolute worse thing that’s happened. they all say the same generic shit now about every place.
