yup, a scam.

Not sure this needed a reply. You surely have judgement of your own.

ok thanks, well to be honest I was about 80% sure, I am quite trusting and naive sometimes, I just don't get why people bother with this kind of thing

you should always report these things so the account can be banned. They may return, but if the mods keep banning them, they may give up and look for more fertile grounds elsewhere.

These scammers think that Aspies are so desperate and naive that they will send their information to anyone claiming to have a vagina. They are so convinced of this that they register accounts nearly every day and send out these messages. Please stop proving them right.

Remember this... Most scammer messages all look pretty much the same and they sound really creepy if you think about it. :eew:
