So someone tried extorting me today for hundreds of dollars. I knew it was a bullshit scam, but I noticed that they were texting me with an iPhone (the blue bubbles) and from a t-mobile phone number located here in the U.S. I was able to find the social media profiles and address connected to that number. I did message the person attached to the number on one of the social media sites but I’m now wondering if it was some sort of hack like what if it wasn’t that person and they were somehow able to use that person’s number and I just bothered this random person for no reason? lol

I can verify my information if needed. I need $60 due to some unexpected costs need to get essentials. Can pay back next week!

Had an unexpected medical expense come up and I’m a little short on essentials until my next paycheck. Can pay on the 20th next week.

Edit: please only respond if you’re willing to help, scams will not work on me and I will report you to the mods/reddit.

I’ve been going to art shows for a while and I still get nervous, I start to feel like I don’t belong. And this happens even when I’m exhibiting in the art show myself lolol. Like going into a space where you maybe don’t know everyone and there’s a large crowd, is kinda weird for some reason. Am I the only that experiences this? I want to go to the solo open reception for an artist I like, tomorrow, but idk I’m kinda feeling intimidated to go alone.
