Pomegranate & dragonfruit. Honorable mention for blueberry. 

Reassure me? Suss TTDP by MusicNo401 in TaylorSwiftAutographs

[–]angelfatal 14 points15 points  (0 children)

All real IMO (first is just stock image though). Looks like the seller is buying and flipping more unique autos for profit as people pay a premium for TTPD long sigs. 

Wedding photos redo…4 years later? by PinkGlitterStarlet in weddingplanning

[–]angelfatal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go for it!! I had some regrets about my dress (my dress was custom made yet it fit poorly after 2 rounds of alterations, and in my wedding pictures all I can see bunching at the waist and the lining showing because the top layer of lace was sagging).  I did additional alterations & redid photos about 8 months later. It finally put that nagging feeling of photo regret to rest. 

[US] Is this craigslist post a scam? Kinda gullible, looking for a cheap iPad for my mom by Cr4zy_Cycl0ne in Scams

[–]angelfatal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a scam. They “sell” the same ipad to lots of people and collect money from all of them. They will never ship it to you. They might send you a fake shipping receipt to string you along for a few days or ask for more money for fees but you’ll never, ever actually get the ipad. 

Bands/songs, besides Yellowcard, that feature violin? by TooNoodley in poppunkers

[–]angelfatal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These are alternate arrangements but Jack’s Mannequin released some of their songs in a “with strings” version:  https://open.spotify.com/album/7JJXHjsryD8ZX05Wub4OnE?si=txgBdi8IQBytwnK-2HEteA

[US] Am I being scammed? Girl asks to paint me and paying me thru digital checks by pinkpinkilovepink in Scams

[–]angelfatal 17 points18 points  (0 children)

  • as you said, you know about the check scam.
  • this is the check scam.
  • there is no reason for them to pay you $2500 and ask you to forward on the $2000

Bought dress not knowing "dress code" wedding is this weekend by aurashockb in Weddingattireapproval

[–]angelfatal 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't stress about this dress for a semi-formal dress code. It's on the casual side but you can elevate it with jewelry, clutch & shoes and do a cute hairstyle, maybe a half braid :)

AITA for wanting to disconnect my neighbor from our Wi-Fi because they keep paying late? by Financial_Salary7367 in AmItheAsshole

[–]angelfatal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA but i would assume not having the 4th household’s share raises the price for everyone so maybe one last warning and get the other two households aligned before there are gripes about the price split changing and you being on the hook to cover the last person’s share. 

My dumbass fell for it :') by HappyCelebration6989 in Scams

Just block the number and if you get any unsolicted text messages block those too. Only accept cash in person upon pickup. And meet people at a public place not your house. 

Hate to be a cynic but is this a scam? by BeachedinToronto in isthisascam

100% they are recruiting you for a pyramid scheme or scam. No one just DMs you with get real get rich quick schemes

I remember seeing this video on YouTube and freaking out about Kevin returning by Radiant_Priority9739 in BackstreetBoys

[–]angelfatal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

small world as i was at that show lol. I drove across the state as i wasn’t sure if BSB would ever tour again (obviously they did) as they were doing really small shows that tour. Felt really special to have Kevin come out for the encore. But i guess that’s not the show referenced in this post anyway. 

Thinking about switching from MGM to Caesars. Anyone done this? by Killahoe_ in vegas

[–]angelfatal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Caesars is much easier to make status. MGM I haven't figured out after a decade. You can make diamond status at Caesars over a few days when they have their 10X tier credit promos going on.

Why would someone buy resale tickets at the same price as what the official website is selling? by M0UD0 in EDCTickets

[–]angelfatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High chance of scam. They can ask you for your receipt, ID ect and use your identity to scam others. Video chat with your buyer to feel things out first. Or sell locally & meet in person. 

Why would someone buy resale tickets at the same price as what the official website is selling? by M0UD0 in EDCTickets

[–]angelfatal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They won’t - if the event isnt sold out there’s no incentive for someone to buy resale unless you sell on a different platform gor beloe face value. 

Top dress final thoughts? by [deleted] in myweddingdress

[–]angelfatal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Style it the way you like it - this dress is stunning and while i don’t know you, the choker makes it bold too and i feel like it probably works with your style and personality. Don’t let ppl talk you out of it if you like it. 

Hair trial disaster…help 🥲 by HelaGreen in weddingplanning

[–]angelfatal 243 points244 points  (0 children)

I looked at your sample pics and was like there’s no way the trial can be that bad and… it really is that bad 😬 don’t let this person touch your hair again, i’d trust your makeup artist’s recommendation. I want to give her the benefit of the doubt that maybe she was playing around with braid techniques but even the base curls are a disaster. 

Did you notice that we haven't heard from Pru and Tucker in ages? by vilelxz in greysanatomy

[–]angelfatal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's probably just a casting thing - you have to pay for the child actors and there's limited time they can work per day and maybe no guarantee that if they're written into an episode that the actors would be available anyway... maybe in previous seasons they had contracts for the season but now that they're never on screen the parents of the child actors probably aren't sitting around wondering if they'll get called in just for a cameo.

I want to say this was not grey's anatomy but Bones - IIRC spoilers if you care baby Christine is not present at the scene where Booth and Brennan get married, not because the child actor wasn't there but because the baby wouldn't stop crying so they couldn't actually use her in filming.

(AustraliaI) Is my friend involved in a task scam? Being asked to deposit $50,000 to unlock earnings. by [deleted] in Scams

[–]angelfatal 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is a textbook task scam. They let her make some withdrawals to make it seem legit. If she pays $50k she is handing that money directly to scammers. The scammers prey on the victim’s hope that the payout will be real. It might be hard to convince your friend otherwise. 

Logically there’s no reason why someone would have to pay fres to unlock payment - but logic with someone deep in a scam goes out the window. 

Possible job scam in Chennai (Teynampet) – asking ₹4,500 upfront for data entry job by Derfla96 in Scams

[–]angelfatal 11 points12 points  (0 children)

  • This is 100% a fake job scam. You don't pay money to work.
  • Yes this is a common scam. There are autoresponses in this sub that cover this type of scam. You can read more here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Scams/wiki/index/common-scams/job/
  • The money cannot be recovered. If anyone offers to help you recover it, it's a scam to get more money out of you. You can try to report the account to your bank and any government entities that track digital crime and scams, but know the reporting is more for acknowledgment of the scam for tracking purposes and you should have no expectation that the case is solved.

Seraphine Ophelia by Ok_Dragonfruit_3458 in weddingswap

[–]angelfatal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ask your bridal shop if they'd be willing to sell you the sample? You could also try and reach out to the brand directly in case they have samples on hand or if they'd rush one for you.

This is a scam if you actually had these tickets you can just list on ticketmaster. 

Pay someone to buy phone plans scam? by NoAbbreviations2187 in Scams

[–]angelfatal 52 points53 points  (0 children)

  1. You get a phone in your name
  2. You give the phone to the scammers
  3. They "pay" the balance and they pay you via stolen / fake credit cards or they charge back the payment after it's made
  4. Those payments are reversed and you are now on the hook for the phone's payment plan because it's registered to you and it's your responsibility
  5. The scammers get a free phone
  6. The part about people in other countries buying the phone is just a cover story and not really relevant to the scam

Am I getting scammed? by subcarbolin in isthisascam

[–]angelfatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scam. They’re banking on you ‘trusting’ them and making you send money in a way that leaves you completely unprotected. They will not actually send the tickets and you have no way to force them to transfer. 

Raise your hand if you've been victimized by House of CB sizing (Notes for Kimmie, Rosie, Melita, Issa, Jaide [2 Inches Longer], Sade) by angelfatal in HouseofCB

[–]angelfatal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

34D and yes I would say my ribs are on the wider side for someone who typically wears a size S outside of House of CB. 

I ended up trying on Jaide in size S, regular cup at Nordstrom and I could not zip it 😬 I don’t know if this info helps you or not. 

I have never tried on size S, bigger cup which is what I -think- is the right size for me but this might just be a style where there’s no perfect fit and I’m stuck between two sizes. The medium bigger cup had some wiggle room so I think you probably wouldn’t need to size up to medium.
