The following blog post contains some strong language. If you’re easily offended, please do not read past the below ruler. This is beyond repair, and government and app store people need to take warning and decide what is best.
Don’t read past here.
Back in January, I read a blurb in the Kim Komando newsletter about a scam that I really don’t want to be a part of. Here is the blog post titled This has got to be the worse on social media.
Now, I’ve got an article that was recently written up that talks about this filthy fucking scam!
I’ve seen calls asking for money claiming they were from the police department. I continue to get calls asking for web development for EMHS which I know they won’t do. But this … is just incomprehensible.
Should I ask the question on whether I should be surprised?
This article will be part of EMHS’s list, although I really should’ve put that crypto thing there but this is even bigger than that.
This article is titled This nasty TikTok scam goes after grieving families.
This guy is having ashes sent to one place, while the money is going to another place. The money is going to someone in Alabama using a service called Cash App.
The second, the delivery of the ashes, is going to someone in Georgia.
These two people have nothing to do with your fucking sick idea of doing what very few people can do.
I can’t believe that TikTok would allow such a thing! Oh wait, yes I can! They don’t seem to give a fuck about anything with their app, even though they now claim they’re going to put safeguards in place for the U.S. concerns that have been raised.
Now we’re learning that Canada is banning TikTok on government phones at least? I know that’s days ago, and I’m still trying to catch up here, but this is fucking rediculous!
Someone tell me that we can’t pressure governments to force the major players of the app stores to remove this dangerous fucking app out of their app stores. Kim Komando indicates that in her predictions and I hope it comes true! It can’t come soon enough.
Sorry for the strong language here, but this is beyond words! This can’t happen like this any more! This is outrageous and lawmakers need to read Kim’s article or others about this and take this seriously!
If this is a challenge, I don’t find it funny, at all. Get with it, Bitedance, or you’re going to find yourself off the app store at some point or if not banned completely by other governments and laws yet not written.
Have a great day!

I don’t use social media for that purpose and yes, this could happen on youtube but youtube allows for longer videos. TikTok is short videos if my memory serves.
Well and thhere is another reason not to use that service.
We get a lot of ticktoc vids from the asian family in china and indonesia.
Most of it is garbage.
This could happen on youtube though but selling etc on social media just isn’t a good idea anyway.
