A place for people to share the strange and disturbing PMs they get from all over the internet. We encourage all kinds of posts from mildly off-putting to slightly weird to downright scary.

  • Creepy PMs FAQ
  • What is Creepy PMs?
  • CreepyPMs is a subreddit for posting creepy, inappropriate, bizarre, awkward, or offensive PMs. Consider everything here to be adult material, and possibly triggering.
  • CreepyPMs is also a support sub, a safe space for people who have been creeped on. That means comments that are not conducive to a supportive and positive environment may be removed, even if they don't violate the rules.

  • What kind of community is /r/creepyPMs?

  • We are feminist and women-friendly. You don't have to identify as such, but you must be respectful of the environment. Low-substance humor and stale hivemind circlejerks are not welcome.

  • Is it OK to share personal anecdotes and stories?

  • Yes, especially if they are relevant to the post. However, our rules still apply. If your story defends or supports the creep, derails the discussion, or isn't empathetic towards the recipient of the messages, it will be removed. Questions regarding whether or not you come off as creepy should be directed to /r/relationships.


  • NEW RULE, PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING

  • ALL personal information must now be FULLY censoredโ€”this includes your own selfies, your profile/user photo, and your username if it does not match your Reddit handle.

  • This is for your safety. The last thing we want is for our users to be targeted after their photo or personal information was visible in a post.

  • Read this post for a complete breakdown of how you should be censoring your submissions. You can also find it in Other Helpful Links below๐Ÿ‘‡

Sent a link to a sketchy video without any sort of content warning.

Video was something to do with hypnosis kink. Idiot probably had ulterior motives with a complete lack of understanding of the topic or the rules set by its community.

Already blocked, but still happy to hear suggestions for how I could've responded differently.

Happy 9 year anniversary to my cyber stalker

For context: this girl has been cyberstalking/ harassing me since 2015 and will be continuing for the foreseeable future.

In 2020, she got my email address from my Instagram account due to an oversight on my part (I was toying with the idea of monetizing a hobby, had a business ig account which displays the email associated with it), and she started to send me messages asking to be friends etc. In November 2022, she sent me an email that said โ€œwho is this??โ€ And an identical one in March this year. Again, she was the one who found the email and began emailing me less than two years prior. A lot has happened in 9 years, and after failed attempts to try to get this to stop (blocking various personal and dummy accounts, getting a restraining order, even giving up and letting her follow me at one point - too creepy and she would try to regularly message me thinking we were friends) Iโ€™ve just started documenting the contacts she has made on Instagram. I know this isnโ€™t maybe the best thing to do, but itโ€™s been 9 years and thereโ€™s no end in sight, and the police wonโ€™t give a shit until she actually tries to hurt me. Regarding this contact: I had posted an email she sent me and various Snapchat requests from this year and last. Admittedly, I pasted her face onto Marthaโ€™s body from Baby Reindeer. I know, immature, but gave me a laugh and no oneโ€™s doing shit about this anyway, so whatever. This was her response.

She usually can go about 4 months max with no contact. She doesnโ€™t see what sheโ€™s doing as wrong despite me explicitly asking her to stop contacting me, I mean a restraining order is pretty cut and dry. Kind of makes me laugh though with the โ€œyouโ€™re turning 30 this year, right?โ€ Like โ€œIโ€™m not stalking you, but I know when our birthday is even though we have never met.โ€

Anyway, pray for me.

Hereโ€™s my daily contribution to this sub <3

This one didnโ€™t freak me out or anything, just made me laugh.

Also since itโ€™s art related I drew a crappy drawing in โ‰ˆ2 minutes to cover the guyโ€™s pfp!

Anyways, what piece of furniture would you be, if you had to be one?
