Why Car-Selling Scammers Keep Following Me (And Why It Feels Like Nextdoor All Over Again)
Apparently, I’ve become that guy—the one car-selling scammers now follow like I’m the season finale of their favorite drama series.
All I did was tell the truth.
Expose a few shady listings.
Mention that “runs great, needs nothing” shouldn’t involve three warning lights, a missing VIN plate, and a seller named “Big T” who can only meet behind a gas station at midnight.
Suddenly, my views spike… from scammers.
I’m slowing down their business, and they don't like it.
Honestly, it feels a lot like my experience on Nextdoor:
You bring up a valid concern, speak the truth, and instantly, every anonymous moderator and their cousin is clutching their pearls.
Except this time, instead of getting suspended by an unpaid neighborhood vigilante, I’m just being watched by mad car sellers. I ruined their “$500 down, trust me, bro” sales pitch.
Here’s what I know:
When you shine a flashlight into the scammer cave, they scatter like raccoons around a knocked-over trash can.
But they still peek back…
To see if I’m talking about them again. (Spoiler: I am.)
So, to the scammers watching this—hi, hello, welcome back.
And to everyone else trying to buy a car:
I’ll keep telling the truth, slow their hustle, and make sure you don’t end up with a lemon that costs more in therapy than in repairs.
You’re welcome.
🔥 Inside Nextdoor HQ — Emergency Boardroom Meeting (Totally Fictional, Totally Satire) 🔥
President Nirav Tolia (fictional/parody version):
“Alright, team, we have a crisis. A Niel Flamm-sized crisis. He’s posting again on our LinkedIn page. We need solutions. Big ones.”
CFO: Penny Pincherstein
“Sir, we can’t keep paying people to delete his comments. The budget is already tight after buying that new company toaster.”
CMO: Brandy Buzzwords
“Have we tried sending him an inspirational quote? Or a calming GIF? Maybe a neighborly haiku?”
CISO: Cy R. Breach
“Security-wise… Niel is unstoppable. He posts. We delete. He reposts. We delete. He reposts again.
Honestly, at this point, I think he’s built a bot out of pure spite.”
CTO: Techie McBandwidth
“We’re running low on servers. Every time he comments, our system logs it as a ‘High Threat Engagement Event.’ The alarms go off. Lights flash. It’s chaos.”
CHRO: Huggie Feelingsworth
“Has anyone considered just… communicating with him? I hear humans respond well to conversation.”
The whole room: gasps audibly
Chief Strategy Officer: Visionary Vaguehart
“Sir, we need a bold, innovative, synergistic, forward-thinking, AI-driven, hyperlocal solution.”
President: “Those were a lot of buzzwords. Do you have an idea?”
Visionary: “…No.”
President (exasperated):
“Okay, team. Let’s not overthink this. We need a plan to stop Niel from posting on our LinkedIn page.”
Everyone leans in…
President:
“Let’s just turn off the comments on our posts!”
Random Non–C-Suite Employee (Janitor Jim? Intern Isla? No one’s sure):
“Isn’t Niel just going to post about the fact that you turned off comments?”
President:
“…Meeting adjourned.”
🔥 A Totally Fictional, Satirical Scene Inside “Nextdoor HQ” 🔥
(None of this happened. It’s pure comedy.)
President Nirav Tolia:
“Healpmee! We’ve got another Niel Flamm comment on LinkedIn. Suit up — it’s overtime!”
Healpmee Preaz (Employee of the Century):
“Overtime again? Sir, the budget is… thin.”
President Nirav:
“Don’t worry, we’re issuing you top-tier equipment. Here—”
hands over a dusty box
“—a Commodore 64 with dial-up internet. It’s all we can afford without angering the shareholders… or the Board.”
Healpmee:
“…Sir, this computer is older than most of the neighborhoods on Nextdoor.”
President Nirav:
“Exactly. Proven reliability. Now every time Niel comments, you’ll get paged.”
Healpmee:
“Like… an actual pager?”
President Nirav:
“Yes. It’ll beep three times and vibrate violently. We programmed it specifically for Niel-related incidents.”
Healpmee:
“…Sir, may I ask something?”
President Nirav:
“Of course, Healpmee. Loyalty and questions are welcome here.”
Healpmee:
“Why don’t we just reach out to Niel and have a conversation?”
President Nirav:
stares in dramatic disbelief
“That’s a silly idea, Healpmee. A conversation? No, no…
We’ll just use every resource, all weekend, every weekend.
He’ll give up eventually.”
Healpmee:
“…Sir, respectfully, he’s already created a casino and odds system.”
President Nirav:
“Then we must stay strong. Fire up the dial-up! Delete those comments before he reposts them!”
The modem screeches loudly in the background.
Healpmee:
“Sir… I think the modem just asked for retirement.”
President Nirav:
“No one retires until Niel does.”
Update: Sunday, 11/23/25 at 2:00 PM ET — We Have a Winner (and a Deleter) 🎰🤣
Well… I checked again today at 2 PM Eastern, and surprise, surprise —
a Nextdoor employee quietly removed more of my LinkedIn comments.
At this point I’m convinced there’s someone at ND whose full-time job title is:
“Senior Comment Deletion Specialist, LinkedIn Division (Weekends Required)”
Honestly, I hope they’re at least getting overtime…
because I definitely am not. 😂
So it’s time for a new bet, a fresh line straight from Flammlandia Casino – Sports Book™:
🎯 3:1 odds my next comment disappears before I finish typing
🍕 7:1 odds the ND employee deletes my comment while eating leftover pizza
🥲 15:1 odds they finally reach out to me instead of reaching for the delete button
💀 100:1 odds they let all future comments live
Stay tuned… and place your bets wisely.
If it gets deleted — you already know —
👉 I’ll add it right back.
