As anything else in the world today, on a low or high scale, there has been an evolution in everything. From finances, rent, school districts, faith and last but not least romance. Recently I have been swimming in the ocean of the music industry. Some waters I know, some waters I a familiar, and others I've never put a thought to or even been introduced.
With that being said, you can get caught up in the turbulence of the waves of life. We all know about Catfishing. Well now I am going to call it "Steaming". Steaming is where people pose themselves as stars, depending on what you are connected to and then it would depend on who they decide to fish after.
Believe me when I say that if you are not wise, your will end up hurt, broke, and feeling hopelessly devoted to a thought.
What happened to me is that an individual messaged me through Instagrams DM and poses themselves as one of my favorite artists, as most they offered private time to communicate with the Telegram app. They charm you, flirt, and then this particular one, had me going back and forth for weeks at a time... I am just saying, as a lady that has grown up as a tomboy, playing basketball with the guys, growing up with the guys, and just coming out with the guys, you learn the good, bad and the ugly of the guys. And if a woman shows vulnerability, to a scammer, manipulator, or narcissist, they will if the intention is a selfish one to take on the victim as pray.
Once this emotional wear down happens, then the mention of A Steam Card comes up. Steam is a currency that is meant to purchase games for devices. So on a determined search, the web will tell you that Steam Gift cards were only good for games. The person decided they wanted to give me a card, to give a code to a "driver" who would set me up for a time with my kids.
The greatest thing you can do is undownlad the application and block all communication. Do not engage any further. If you are being asked to do anything outside of the normal, makes you second guess, call on Jesus. Don't make the mistake of further pursuit. Share with a friend, a neighbor, a sister, a daughter, a niece, anyone who is vulnerable.
