For real. Have you ever heard some Midwestern-looking middle-aged man request you kindly do something for them OP? Probably not. A man like that might say "thank you kindly," but it's not a normal usage amongst people who speak English as their native language. That's a hallmark of Indian and Nigerian scammers who don't speak English like a native speaker.

AutoModerator has been summoned to explain sugar scams. Sugar dad/daddy/mom/momma scams are very common and usually come in two varieties: fake check style scams, and advance-fee scams. Fake check style scams involve the scammer making a fraudulent payment to you that will later be reversed, and then you making some sort of payment to the scammer that will not be reversed. Common examples include the scammer sending you a fake check and asking you to buy gift cards, or to send money via Western Union, or to purchase Bitcoins. Another common example involves the sugar scammer offering to pay your bills, or offering you banking information that you will use to pay off your bills. These bank accounts are stolen and the innocent victim will reverse the charge when they notice the fraud. The second variety of sugar scammers use advance-fee scams, where they offer you money but require you to pay first. They may ask for you to pay them to prove that you are loyal, or they may require you to pay a processing fee. It's common for sugar scammers to send spoofed emails that look like they came from services like PayPal or CashApp that will inform you that you have received money, but that also ask for a processing fee before the funds are released. We do not recommend that people try to be a sugar baby, but if this is what you are looking into, check out the following subreddits for information on how to be safe: r/SugarLifestyleForum/ and r/SexWorkers.

I get them a lot. They will tell you to send them 50 dollars first to prove you're legit, and then they will totally send you 2000 dollars each week or how much they promise.

There is no free money from strangers on the internet. Sugaring requires sex. Its sex work.
