  • Yeah, they also varied between spelling it “Columbia” and “Colombia” in the same article.

    But I get it, there’s not a lot of money in popular science publishing so they may not even have a copy editor, at least those kinds of stories are still getting popularized and not just ‘ancient aliens’.



  • Great article. It’s worth remembering that DNA is only evidence that someone banged, and I imagine there’s a fair amount of contact that goes on before that.

    I hope this person just meant to say “Native American”, and doesn’t really think Colombia is in North America.

    (sorry, I’ve spent the last week proofreading articles…)



  • I don’t know who’s running the Nicole scam, but in some centers:

    Scam center operators lure foreign nationals to scam hubs, where they are forced into modern slavery, to scam internet users around the world into fraudulently buying cryptocurrencies or withdrawing cash via social media and online dating apps.[1] A typical scam is known as “pig butchering”. Trafficked victims’ passports are confiscated, and they are threatened with organ harvesting and forced prostitution if they do not successfully scam sufficiently.

    So there’s always the chance that you’re not scambaiting a willing scammer, but an enslaved person who’s just scared of being forced into prostitution.
