Weird Interaction

[jjenkc]

Was wondering if anyone might have an answer for a weird situation I encountered recently. I had a provider who wanted me to take a selfie holding up my pinkie and ring finger in the pic? Is there some type of significance or red flag? I didn't follow through since I got a weird feeling about it. Just thought that was a weird ask for verification and wondered if anyone else has come across this or what it might mean?

Honey we get all kinds of requests...weird that a provider may ask another provider that. If in fact it was a provider and not a manager?
Who knows...

Maybe it was a dexterity test?

At least they didnt ask for the Shocker sign...lol

The same idea as holding up a recent newspaper for a timestamp - proof of being a recent photo. When you respond with a photo that has the requested gesture (in this case) in it, that is an indication that you took the photo in response to a live request.

Years ago, I asked a provider to send me just a face pic, holding up 2 or 3 fingers. It was my way of verifying whether her pics in her profile were accurate or not.

It was just a head date. Was not concerned about body. She complied and I had a great date. LOL, the face pic she sent was way better than her face pics in her profile.

Unless it is another provider looking to verify and interact in some fashion but your rep should circumvent any further verification.
