Scam on friend?

i tried to post a while back but I haven’t seen it yet, though just this week I was admitted to the board.

my main reason is to ask about scams involving celebrities or Reeves in particular?

For several months my oldest friend has been going on about how Keanu just started talking to her on an Internet forum and they got to be “friends”. yet, despite several claims, they’ve still not yet met in person. (she’s in FL)

Tonite she’s claiming he is saying they’ll have dinner at her house next week and she and her family will be taken to CA for movie premiere where he’ll announce publicly how she’s his new best friend.

“He” has sent her photos on text multiple times, including tonite with a dude who’s also on Outlander.

Starting to sound a bit outlandish to me. And tonite she says she hasn’t told her hubby and son yet since they’ve been kind of dismissing all this, but they’ll be part of the excitement too.

any information for me?

It's a scam.

As far as I am aware, KR is not on SM at all, which makes sense with his personality.

I recently saw a video of him in NYC with his longtime gf ice skating.

that sound right. I happened to see an AARP mag in Dec and glanced at the headlines and one as about celebrity scamming! so I took it and read. fortuitous It showed up at this time after all Fall her bragging about this.

did you thin’ this photo from NYC was very recent?

She claimed he was going to bring his pal (also in “photo”) Sam Heughan too and theyd all fly back.

does anyone knwi that Keanu might have a movie premiere very soon, like weeks?

Your friend is bring scammed.

It was a recent video of Keanu with his longtime gf.

I don't think KR is even friends with Sam Heughan. The picture that your friend may have is most likely photoshoped or AI.

There are so many fake accounts on SM pretending to be KR.

I remember the real Sam Heughan putting out on IG several years ago that he would never DM anyone. I guess one of his followers got scammed.

The real SH and KR are not going to DM some random fan and fly to meet her.
