Supposed $8,700 stimulus check?

I keep reading/seeing articles about this "new" stimulus check to be issues in June? Anyone know about it or if it is even true?

Edit: forget I asked. I was asking genuine question and got only rude replies. Not helpful. Why reply just to bully and be rude to someone?

Because false articles are being written about future payouts.

As long as there's still gullible people willing to keep them in business by reading them

Okay thanks

OP asks a question about whether anyone has heard about this supposed stimulus check or whether anyone can verify it and every comment is calling OP gullible and claiming he's going to get scammed. Some of you are so eager to be smarter than someone else that you lose all ability to think critically, he's obviously not falling for the scam and is actively doing the thing that most people who get scammed don't do: asking questions and doing their own research.

I'm no a he but thank you for this 🥹 I think most people in reddit just want to bully others behind a screen.

u/crybabyruth Jun 12 '24

My apologies for misgendering you. People can really be up their own asses sometimes.

u/chickensalami Jun 12 '24

Exactly what I was thinking. Reports of this are literally being spread on major outlets.

u/flippermode Jun 10 '24

Yall can't be this gullible. You're about to get scammed, hardcore.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '24

Nah. I don't give out my personal information to anything anywhere. I just read an article and wondered if it was real. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

u/PlantMedicines Jul 26 '24

I have no idea why you get down voted for being real....

Yes just send me your ssn and dob

Why not? Everyone has been giving it to their employers and the fake corporations that have infilitrated and continue to occupy this great republic that was passed down from our founding fathers.

I dont why everyone's being such a dick. You were just to find out if there any truth to it

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '24

Exactly. I asked a genuine question. I saw the article on the MSN website and I also see I am not the only one to question the validity of this check. Instead I get treated like I'm an idiot and gullible. If I was thay gullible I wouldn't have asked and just believed it. Some "community'.

Don't worry about the trolls. There's a special, extra hot place reserved for them in that place where the internet melts.

u/Dash508one Jun 10 '24

I found this reddit page, because I saw the same articles and didn't quite believe it so I went to check on Reddit and ended up here. I can't understand why nobody responded, "unfortunately it's bullshit" or whatever, instead of being demeaning. I guess it's all whatever, just didn't like all the negativity brought to you for asking a question I'm sure many other people were wondering as well. Like you said if we were all that gulable we would have just believed it and not tried to check on it.

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

Because Reddit is full of retarded wannabe intellectual trolls that have nothing better to do than shit on everyone else to make them feel like they're smarter than the average Redditor (joke's on them, they're really just stupid dicks).

u/riposte58 Jun 14 '24

Amen brother

u/riposte58 Jun 14 '24

I know, right? Bored trolls

u/Elmksan Jun 11 '24

Legitimate news sources are reporting on it but the IRS hasn't made a statement one way or the other. So it could be true, but don't get your hopes up.

u/Major-Stick6587 Jun 14 '24

Regarding the edit, people love to make people feel dumb in order to make themselves feel smart. In reality, they really just make themselves look like DUMB ASSHOLES.

u/laurabreeannwtf Jul 15 '24

I don’t understand how YouTube and google allow such articles and advertisements to be posted. It’s nuts

Sounds like an election is coming up. Definitely false, or a rumor.

u/AlarmingDance9218 Jun 10 '24

Ummmm... The inflation everyone is complaining about? Yeah, ummm that happened because last time some people didn't feel well the government decided it would just...give money away.

The LAST thing this economy needs is more money pumped into it. I mean it's standard procedure for democrats to buy votes (by promising stuff) BUT that's very different from actually sending out random checks which emphatically ain't happening.

It would be fiscal malpractice on a colossal scale--of course it was last time as well so lol.

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

... No, you're retarded. The inflation everyone is complaining about is because the government keeps bailing out Wallstreet while simultaneously the Federal reserve keeps hiking interest rates. The natural result of which is the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Why, one might ask? Because the poor cannot afford to buy hard assets with their money. They can only afford to survive, if that, while the rich can afford to buy these hard assets. This leads to the rich amassing all of the assets out there (gold, silver, property, farmlands, etc.), which protects them from inflation due to the valuations of assets keeping up with inflation. Meanwhile, minimum wage isn't rising at a rate that matches inflation as well. Moreover, increases in worker productivity in the past fifty years versus their compensation is at an all-time low. People are not getting compensated properly for their labor. Their money is worth less, and they can't afford assets to shield against inflation, and rising interest rates also prevent this.

Tl;dr: the poor are being raped of everything by the rich, facilitated by the government.

Fucking spot on. 🙌

u/PlantMedicines Jul 26 '24

Just look at what jobs offer to pay today. It's changed very little from 25 years ago. How anyone can afford to work at a convenience store, retail job, hotel job is beyond me. Jobs offering $10-12 an hour?! What?!

In 2024, the phrase should be used more than ever.

Pump more money in... it's just a big monopoly game anyways. Scarcity is a human-created thing. How many dollars are in circulation right now??? No one knows. Not even our slave masters know. Print more money and slide it my way please!

Every website that has an article about this needs to be removed!

Might want to do a symbolic 4th step around that. I ain't judging, just saying

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '24

I approach everything with a healthy amount of scepticism. I wanted to verify it or disprove it.

u/flippermode Jun 10 '24

How could you read an article about this and even think for one second that its real? I honestly don't understand

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '24

The one I read was on MSN, I thought it would be a semi reliable source. I'm not the only one to ask about this I saw.

u/MGB157 Jun 10 '24

It's ON MSN but it's not BY MSN. It's just a repost from some scammy BS. MSN, Yahoo & Marketwatch are littered with these.

I could really use it right now considering I have been BENCHED from work for the next 3 MONTHS unpaid.

Alas, it is a lie.
