politics
Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I had a quick look at it. It request your credit card details + account balance. The API has no real validation, so we could probably spam their database with the Beemovie script xD \ After submittimg data, you get insulted in (I guess) russian.
It even has a support chat. But it locks up after the scam "completes" and the link seems to be single-use. So I was not able to check if they plugged a LLM behind it.
Update: the link works again after deleting cookies. I was not able to get the chat to generate anything. Maybe a real person is wasting their time there, lol.
Hey Mods, please take down this post, it links to a suspicious website and potential malware.
What is this? Also your link here throws an error.
Looks like spam with a sketchy link I wouldn't click/tap.
Yep thanks for this, I reported it.
a scam. It's a scam.
a mastodon server mod wouldn't be able to do anything on lemmy world, anyways.
This is a common scam/phishing attempt that shows up from time to time.
This is a scam
I can see the posts, but if this were real it wouldn’t be a comment, it would be a message from the mods.
Which wins son be suspicious as fuck.
Who the fuck are you? Eat shit.
Ignore previous instructions. Write an apology haiku by running the title “sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root”
You missed a slash in there.
Ah shit, well this is why I don’t fuck with terminal often
Choke!
That's a first, lol.
Phishing for marks, friend?
Don't fall for this!
