I almost was the victim of a Club Orange scam today. Someone impersonated one of my frequent contacts. The guy was either pretty convincing or I'm gullible as hell. He referred to other mutual contacts while weaving his story. I noticed a few red flags right away, like he wanted to switch platforms to message. Still, I wasn't certain it was a scam until the "small loan" he was requesting turned into a large amount of sats. The strange thing is that a new user must pay a significant sum to create an account, so the guy must have been confident in his abilities.

Matteo Pellegrino @orangepillapp , the owner of the app, was very helpful. From Matteo:

The account was shut down immediately.

Just a cautionary tale.
