I've been approached on WhatsApp using my phone no here by Asian women claiming they are interested in my car. They then strike up a conversation and eventually, I'll quote:

"My passive income has also been developing very well recently. By the way, do you have your own diversified passive income sources?"

I've now blocked the accounts, however another one contacted me again today!

Pig butchering scam.
They will try and get you to use their exclusive trading portal and rip you off.

I think a lot of these Asian ladies you talk about, might actually be young Asian males, who responded to online content about positions working in IT which promise unparalleled rewards.

These promises may have included very attractive financial packages, access to beauties beyond their wildest dreams and unlimited gaming.

They then travel to another country, where their passports are confiscated, there are no beauties, zero pay and if the reach targets they don’t get beaten.

Most operations are in NE Laos or N Myanmar. While the ‘pig butchering’ traditional focused on the West, they are now targeting Asian countries.

It makes the news a lot, especially in Vietnam.

You know what Porsche.

Its a pause for thought indeed.It did rather stall didn’t it, and I started getting really self conscious and asking myself: “Am I a thread killer?”

I rather flippantly posted out my response without much thought. Honest, I wasn’t really thinking about Lady Boys - it’s my mate. And he’s hassling me about it.

Another observation about OP though.

14 posts in 221 months. That’s decent lurking.

I’m nearing my 200 club membership with just over a thou and I thought my count was low.

Hats off to Trigger

It’s a real shame Welshbeef is not around anymore.

I’m sure he would have created a bit of interest.

And as for the lack of Powerful Director Types?

Have folk given up?

I am a weak, badly built pensioner who just does not qualify for Pension Credit and WFA by a mere £1000 or so income, do I count?

They show some interest then casually mention that they have a mentor or similar and due to their teachings it means that they only need to work a few hours a month. They hope that you start asking about it and get frustrated when you ignore it.

I've noticed a lot of them put "golf" as a hobby, so I'm now convinced that the only asian "women" who play golf are scammers.

Need to be careful, you might think it's Ting Tong from Pong Pong, but could really be Tong Ting from Tooting running a scam.

Doubt I'll survive long enough to gain from that!

If you are not joking, sorry to hear that.
