Fetish websites target NZers

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

Fetish websites target NZers

Post by Anchor Moy »

Probably because they are not very bright. If someone offers you thousands of dollars for a photo of your foot - what would you assume? That it's art ? That, of course a photo of YOUR FOOT is easily worth $2000 ? Well duh. :fool:
Police in New Zealand have issued a warning about an international hand and foot fetish scam which has caused distress among its victims, many of whom are young, cash-strapped and female.

According to Netsafe New Zealand, an independent internet watchdog, there have been nearly 20 reports of women being promised money to take pictures and videos of their hands and feet – and the numbers are growing every day.

So far all of the victims were told the images were for ‘an art project’ – but Netsafe said it was highly likely they were instead being posted on overseas sexual fetish websites.

People who fell for the scheme were promised between NZ$2,000 and NZ$9,000, money they never saw...
Why NZ?
Lyons said statistically New Zealanders were no more vulnerable to internet scams than any other nation, but their “trusting nature” sometimes meant they took promises at face value, and could be easy targets...
“And finally remember if you think it is too good to be true it probably is.”

Ok, but why the "distress" ??? Who's going to recognize your foot on the internet after all ? :oops:

Don’t all Kiwis have 12 toes? Seems a bit niche.
Honestly though how can anyone be upset or offended. To most people they are not sexual parts of the body.

I get the feeling these snowflakes millennials (because no adult would be so dumb) are more upset they didn’t get paid.

Yes... and if you subscribe, you get 50% off the 'Gum Boot' (Wellingtons) fetish site.

New Zealand - where men are men and the sheep are scared.
You could be next.
