New Employee Horrified After Sending Out Message To Company Without Realizing It Included A Very NSFW Photo

With COVID-19 being declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization, people are clambering for more information, and pranksters are seizing upon that desperation.


A NSFW prank has been circulating the internet. It involves a message regarding closures of the NYC subway system with a link to a "map" of the shutdowns.

In reality, the link leads to an image of a fully nude man.

One Redditor, mermicide, told the story of receiving the prank and opening the link.

*Warning: Clicking the link in his post shows the very NSFW image*

"This just happened. My little brother sent me a text a little while ago that said:"
"NYC subway system shut down. Mayor Bill DeBlasio officially closes New York City subway system beginning 3/10/2020. Outage map lists closing by station, beginning with southern Manhattan."
"*LINK* New York City officially goes into lockdown as it tries to contain this deadly virus."
"I should have learned long ago not to trust my brother, but with everything going on (and my office still not being work from home yet) I got too anxious and copied it into the #general Slack channel with an @channel notification... lucky me, Slack rendered the image and I saw that it was a LARGE NAKED BLACK MAN!!!"
"I managed to delete it, but not quickly enough... one of the VPs saw it and messaged me about it right after. Lucky for me, out of everyone at the company, he's the only one that would find this funny and he got a good laugh out of it. I pray to God that no one else saw it, especially since I've only been working here for about two months."
"I'm so fucking lucky that Slack rendered that image because otherwise there was NO CHANCE that I would have checked that link and it would have been up in the channel for much longer."
"tl;dr I sent a link to a company-wide Slack channel that I thought was to a PBS article about the NYC subway being shut down but it was actually an image of a naked black dude."

Apparently this picture has been seen by others before.

"One of my friends sent a few of us that same link but it was about a local case of Coronavirus. I knew better than to trust said friend and knew it was a joke before I even clicked it. But my other friend forwarded it to his mom without checking it. We all got a good laugh at his expense..." -FictionVent

The post taught others an important lesson...sort of.

"I'd love to say that this will probably teach me a lesson on to now read the post before clicking on a link, but knowing me I'll probably forget about it and revert back to my old ways when I view another Reddit post." -you_are_breathing

Like the coronavirus itself, the prank began to spread.

"Don't mind me, just copy pasting to have some fun of my own" -twiceforcedsucc

Our condolences if you've already been affected by the post.

"Literally this exact thing happened to me a few weeks ago with the same link and pic, someone sent it into this huge college freshman group chat I'm in with like 400 people in it and everyone freaked out." -PowerofMoses

Of course, the prank was confined solely to Reddit.


People fell for the link every time.



Countless members of the public saw something they instantly wished they hadn't.



The most unfortunate victims of the prank were at their workplace when it struck.



Always be sure to safety-check your links before sending on to friends—it's the decent thing to do!

Trump Bizarrely Clashes With Reporter Over Photoshopped 'Tattoo' On Abrego Garcia's Knuckles

President Donald Trump sparked criticism after claiming during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran that an edited photo depicting tattoos of wrongly-deported Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia showed that he has an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang.

Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to MS-13. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.

Leavitt Lashes Out At Amazon Over 'Hostile' Plan To Display Added Tariff Costs For Products On Website

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt lashed out at Amazon over news that the commerce giant planned to display increased "import charges" on items on their Amazon Haul website, essentially showing to customers the extra money they'd have to shell out as a result of President Donald Trump's tariffs.

Trump has escalated a growing trade war by imposing tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports, prompting China to retaliate with its own 125% tariffs on American goods. Additionally, the U.S. has slapped a 10% tax on imports from most other countries, while temporarily suspending higher rates for several nations for 90 days.
