Is this a bit spooky, or am I being unkind?

Good morning šŸŒž
I hope today brings you calm moments and positive vibes. I know we havenā€™t chatted before, but I came across your profile and something about it caught my attentionā€”it feels like we could really vibe well. If you're open to it, Iā€™d love to start a conversation and maybe build a genuine friendship beyond this app. No pressure at allā€”just reaching out with warm energy and good intentions.
Wishing you a beautiful day!

Itā€™s called grooming! It will be someone wearing headphones, sat in a shed somewhere, thousands of miles away!

Not the same as OP got today.

We are supposed to report?

They can't send a PM to our Gransnet mailbox unless they are members. If we let Gransnet know what they are up to, they can delete their account and ban then (and give them a virtual kick up the RRRs at the same time.)

Thanks.
Didnt realise that.
Mine will be long gone I assume.

Don't do it. It's African young men asking for money after they've made you feel loved up

Thanks for all the posts.
Iā€™ve reported via the ! under the PM, deleted it and blocked whoever it is. My vibes obviously didnā€™t match.

I had one via FB, he was a ā€œsurgery doctorā€ from America but working in Syria, I led him on a bit for fun, he was very keen as I Tod him I was a divorcee who had just sold a business.

He felt a real connection apparently!

Perhaps the moderators should be informed.
Definitely report them.

More than a bit spooky. A bit dangerous I think. After your money.
