Klaipėda received a strange offer online: she was promised 500 euros for her

Klaipeda resident Rosita saw the ad on a Facebook The group was interested in the offer to take pictures in a foot photo shoot for a fee.

The girl herself wrote the ad to the author, who introduced herself to Inga, but did not suspect that for a fee of 500 euros, she would be asked to rub a live frog on her paws until the animal died.

“He asks what is the size of the feet, if they are full or not, just like for advertising, a photo, a photo session, everything is normal. Correspondence, it does not seem that I correspond with any strange person. Say good, you fit us. I say, well, wait for it, say it, that’s what is here, tell me more. And that long message came, and then it took me a long time to understand what I wrote here, ”says Rosita from Klaipeda.

This is what was written:

“You take a live decorative frog in your hands and slowly and for a long time (about 30 minutes) you rub its head with your bare feet until you are tortured to death. Everything. There is demand, we have to offer and supply ”.

The girl declined the offer and corresponded with friends who made it public online. It caused great outrage among Internet users for the possible cruelty towards the animal, some promised to report it to the police as well. Comments revealed that a man was hiding behind the woman’s questionnaire, inviting the girls to take photos for the first time.

One commentator, who also had an affair with the same man, warns the other girls: “Watch out girls. Complete patient, has photos page and from simple photo sessions, it is not clear for what purposes and for whom ”.

Animal welfare advocates say these proposals encourage cruelty to animals, which should be punished. The police can only take action against that person after receiving the report.

“Using any reptile for some personal purpose that is not at all related to the biological needs of that animal is harmful to that animal. And what kind of damage could be done would depend a lot on the actions that are carried out, because naturally animals are not used to scratching their feet or giving themselves massages ”, says the defender of animal rights Brigita Kymantaitė.

“If someone provides information about that person that that person really exists and is real, there are certain ways to discipline him. This is the same preventive conversation, it is an official warning from the police,” says police representative Ramūnas Matonis.

Not only online photoshoot offers should be carefully considered, but also carefully chosen what we accept as friends on social media. A nude beauty with a prominent bust is not necessarily a real woman willing to ask you out on a date. Usually these questionnaires hide behind scammers who send virus infected links and then steal not only your personal data but also your money.

“It’s pretty obvious in the photo, because it’s already there hyper sexy by name, because there is nothing very Lithuanian, but something very exotic. The text written for him is also not fluent in Lithuanian or English, ”said Domantas Širvinskas, a social media expert.

“Fraud is just one way again. Also, then the request, send photos to each other, the photos can be multiple naked people, then people are blackmailed,” said R. Matonis.

A favorite target of “lovely ladies or overseas princes, like those who serve in the navy in Afghanistan and don’t even have access to the sea,” or other furry con artists, are lonely old people and children who are afraid to admit their the parents are in trouble.

Again, children suffer and lead to suicides, various crimes and money, such as theft from parents and transfer of the same to someone, instead of being shown and made public. This is probably even more dangerous with children, ”says R. Matonis.

Social media experts say that to protect yourself from online scams, you first need to organize your social media privacy settings and personal information: the names of spouses, children, where you live, or where you go just to share with your friends.

Also, do not open links received from suspicious people. The links may appear to point to a page on your bank or social network, but when you enter data, you are leaving your information to the scammers, not your bank.
