  1. A musician & friend of mine goes to India for almost three months, it's a German.
    India requires a business visa for this.
    Looking for a site to apply for this he sadly found a scammer site first: #^https://www.indiasevisa.org/ and applied (DO NOT APPLY THERE!). The site looked legit and he was charged 170€. No visa or communication ever arrived. Sadly when you look at the details they explicitly say, that they are not affiliated with the Indian government directly (Screenshot attached below). Site located in New Zealand, by the way, looking professional.
    Here's where you really need to go to:
    #^https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/

    Beware of scammers!!!

  3. Scammer alert. Received a DM from this account claiming to be Dean Schneider. Both the Twitter accounts are fakes too.

    According to official website, he is on Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok, not Twitter or Mastodon.

    Seems like all the follows on Twitter are women who I'm guessing are his target.

  6. Reçu hier soir sur l'adresse de communication (pas de compte réel derrière, juste un alias) d'une boutique dont je m'occupe... La cliente est très étonnée de ces accusations ;-)
    Pirate, mais pédagogue et ayant le souci de la sécurité des autres...
