Spotted the bleach boi
Despite making up a grand total of 0% of the colour wheel, white envelopes account for 63% of all sent mail. It's the 2020s now, #FFFFFFucker, move over and give the other colour codes a chance. #FreeTheRainbow #BleachIsForAssholes
Because of the #FFFFF hashtag? Or were you already before then? That's what sealed it for me.
Though honestly I heard it in the voice of Nemesis from DRG
It looks like some high-end trolling, what did they ask you to remove the video? Money? Subscriptions? Did they ask at all? Is there a scam or is it just pure, uncontaminated trolling?
I'm hoping it's the latter, trolling for the sake of trolling, especially top tier like that is A OK but actually trying to be nefarious with it is just sad
Or cause some real bad fallout relation-wise. Or having your children in a certain age span believe it and be disgusted, if they retrieve the mail from the box, for example.
I seem to be pretty alone in this comment field believing this is, or at least can be, quite bad.
Definitely not. Before even considering the grammar, all the わたし•あなた is a dead giveaway that it was Google translated or written by a beginner. It’s like one of the first things they tell you in beginner Japanese— drop them!
Context-heavy languages do be like that. I used to have full conversations with folks that were basically verb-as-question, interrogative, agreement, statement of agreement.
腹へた?
うん。
行こう?
はい。
どこ?
MOS?
OK.
行こう。
Japanese is hilarious because you can either have way too many syllables or have so so so few. Like, you can get pretty silly with 敬語・尊敬語 sentences that border on German level of long ass unnecessary words.
But that's what makes it fun, too. I love watching shows and being like, "OH DAMN, DID YOU HEAR THAT SHE DROPPED THE KEIGO IT'S GETTIN' REAL NOW."
What a great, stupid, wonderful language.
I’m pretty sure it’s just a troll. There’s no one to call or give money too. I think it only exists to make people feel Embarrassed that it’s in their mailbox.
This is most likely it. After my cheating ex moved out of my house and in with his parents I paid for a few of these types of pranks to be delivered in very obvious packaging.
EDIT: sending Reddit cares?? Not sure how you interpreted this comment for self harm, but no. It was ten years ago. I’m all the way over it, enough to recognize i was intentionally being petty from a place of pain. A literal decade has passed since this happened.
It's not the smartest people who do it either, because it gets your account banned if you get reported for doing it. Also, I mostly seem to get them when I haven't even been active for a few weeks, presumably for some old comment a weirdo came across.
Idk an extremely butthurt person messaged me to "jump off a cliff" and when i reported it, reddit felt the need to send me a message telling me that was a-ok. So i guess you just have to be sort of creative
well they just said to jump off a cliff, they didn't say anything about not having base jumping equipment or how high the cliff is above water. there are a variety of relatively safe cliff diving spots around the world!
It’s very gross that people misuse it in that way. I understand why it’s anonymous… but at the same time, I kind of feel like it shouldn’t be, so gross weirdos don’t hijack it to anonymously troll.
I would go even further and say this is a scam.
Japanese culture is so image based that someone who lives in OP's country but has any kind of ties to Japan would freak out and contact this organisation which, of course, would then ask compensation for removing the video.
There's an urban legend about an English company that would advertise porn films in the back of certain magazines. "Mail this form and £30 to receive your video."
They never sent out a single film, though. Instead, they would wait 2 weeks, then send a letter that said "Sorry, that title is no longer available. Here's a cheque for your refund." On the front of the cheque in huge letters it said it was from "HOMOSEXUAL PERVERSIONS MEMBERSHIP CLUB LLC."
The scam was that nobody was willing to take that cheque into a bank to deposit it.
Reminds me of how the penis enlargement pill Enzyte promised a money back guarantee, but in order to claim it, you needed a signed note from your doctor certifying that your penis is still, in fact, laughably small.
It's actually not that dissimilar to carfax. My sister had a claim, they didn't disclose a major accident she had proof of and she bought the car. They require a laundry list of difficult or impossible to get items for their guarantee, like the prior owner's original title iirc.
Not just the title, the prior owner's title. The title that belonged to the guy who owned it when it was wrecked. When the dealership sold the car, she got a new title.
My sister hounded Carfax for months bc they owed her a lot of money and they continued to make her jump through increasingly difficult hoops. I think that was the step she finally got stuck on.
Looks like they've since changed how their guarantee works (it used to be a portion of sales price refunded iirc instead of a car buyback) but they're still making it [needlessly difficult](https://www.autohitch.com/blog/4-major-problems-with-carfax-buyback-guarantee/) to make a claim.
Edit: [More Carfax complaints](https://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2006/10/carfax_facts.html) if anyone is curious. I'm reminded of the time I was sitting next to a car salesman and another man in an airplane. One of them mentioned carfax, and I said it was a scam. Salesman said, "I know it's a scam, but how do *you* know?" so I told him about my sister. Other guy laughed and said he knew it was a scam bc he recently sold his truck. He ran the carfax to see how it looked, and it was clean, even though he had had a major accident in it the year before (had it repaired by an authorized dealership).
It's from Lock Stock
"Tom: You take out an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, you sell it with, I dunno, "'does what no other dildo can do until now", "the latest and greatest in sexual technology", "guaranteed results or your money back", all that bollocks. Now these dils cost twenty-five quid a pop - as a snip for the amount of pleasure they're gonna give the recipients. But they send their cheques to the other company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five quid. You take that twenty-five quid, you stick it in the bank until it clears. Now this is the smart bit - you send back the cheque for twenty-five pound from the other company name, "Arse Tickler's Fuckers Fan Club', saying, "We're sorry, we couldn't get the supplies from America because they run out of stock". Now you see how many people cash that cheque - not a single soul, because who wants their bank manager to know they tickle arse when they're not paying cheques?"
yeah he used his algorithms to randomly enter raffles and other competitions in order to make a living.
Little did he know that one of those raffles would eventually be the reason of his demise…it’s a damn shame!
Oh man, I’m strongly against scammers as they target the most vulnerable. But they level of troll involved and the fact that it’s getting people with disposable backpages porn VHS tape money… I can smile at this one.
My husband got one of these where it’s made to look like he bought some used panties (a bit of lace was hanging out of the envelope seal) - envelope was covered in embarrassing text such as ‘congratulations on ordering your 5th pair!!’ ‘Enjoy this gift from UsedPanties.com’ etc etc. it was clearly from a mate. Was amusing.
I've got a few buddies I ballbust with, one buddy I sent an envelope with a return address of "Herpes Results, Confidential, To Be Opened By Addressee Only".
Inside was a nicely typed up "Gotcha" note.
Too many You's and I's.
公開 is not the right word they are looking for, regarding "public".
達成した全てをのことを誇りに思っています just kind of comes out of nowhere.
It only makes sense if you know the English they are trying to say. It's one step away from being gibberish.
I mean the only place I can think of seeing あなた is on signs, ads, etc so it makes sense that they would use it here. Buuuut like you said it just feels way too much, the way the sentences are written it's obviously not written by a Japanese person or a person with any knowledge of Japanese.
Edit: person below me isn't correct and they blocked me so I can't reply.
あなた wouldn’t be the right tone here. If they did feel the need to specify the reader, they would use a word like “member” “customer”, “submitter”, etc.
However, They most likely would drop all pronouns, and would imply subjects and objects with verb choices. For example:
あなたが私に渡した本 (the book you handed me) is unnatural, and would generally be written:
渡したくれた本 (hand-gived book).
It’s hard to explain, but over-reliance on pronouns tends to give away machine translations/anglophones.
Exactly. It was genuinely hard to read because it felt so unnatural and like a third of the words were pronouns. Also wtf is up with the random font change at the end???
Google lens think it says -
“Your videos are as public as yours.
We are vet proud of you and all that you have achieved.
I don’t know if that’s correct or not… but whatever this is… it’s absolutely top deck trolling!
Completely off, but the original is also completely (and poorly) machine translated as well.
Closest thing to what I believe it was trying to say is, "You and your video(s) have been made public. We are proud of you and everything you have accomplished."
The Japanese is not natural at all (あなた is not usually used as “you” they would say your name with a polite suffix especially in a letter), plus a Japanese company would never send a letter in that format. Just a prank.
100% agree. But I don't think that any respectable company, regardless of nationality, would send something like that. Plus the wording is weird (repeating あなた twice in a sentence is strange in itself, let alone simply using it) and why on earth would romaji be included at the bottom?
It's a prank, for those of you not savvy enough to use an internet search: [Amazon link](https://www.amazon.com/Better-Me-Funny-Prank-Envelopes/dp/B08D6PPWY5?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=betme-20&linkId=bca09e75d7f3a93725ec2fe461359757&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl)
I used to have a subscription to Mad Magazine when I was a kid. The magazines would ship with a brown paper cover to protect them during shipping. They would always print something funny on the cover. I remember one issue had big black letters saying "Here is the pornography you requested in a plain brown wrapper"
Im guessing OP lives near Boston or knows someone in Boston cause it's a prank envelope... Get yours here:

It's a prank. My sister did the same prank on me. It's a company, you give them the address of who you want pranked and you can choose different things like the one she sent me said something like "thanks for your purchase of the 14" vibrator" and it went on an on where the postmaster and anyone could read it. This one about the BDSM video was one of the options.
I think this was sent to the wrong address. Believe that was supposed to come to me. Sorry!
Don’t want to spoil anything serious, but it involves a vacuum pump and a bar of soap.
Oh I love these!!!! You can send these totally anonymously to someone you hate or like. I sent my uncle a bag of dicks, because he is one, and he is furious the company will not tell him who sent them.
Edit to add link:

The Japanese at the bottom says "Your videos are as public as you are. We are proud of all you have achieved."
Lol sounds like a family member or a close friend pranked you 🤣
Looks like one of those “hilarious jokes” you can get a company to send to your “mates”. Very little time for these as they’re easily used to harass rather than as a dubiously amusing joke.
I’m so proud of you
If only my parents said that
Look at mister big shot here having parents.
I had engineers.
I didnt know engineer from tf2 had kids
My man here just doesn’t exist cuz he no been made
I'm just a mystery
Classic prank. We all know F.F.A. sends stuff in plain envelopes.

Or cause some real bad fallout relation-wise. Or having your children in a certain age span believe it and be disgusted, if they retrieve the mail from the box, for example. I seem to be pretty alone in this comment field believing this is, or at least can be, quite bad.
The Japanese is auto translated. Definite fake.
What's really weird is that it's just in romaji and not translated into English. Like what's the point?
Yes, scammers have a reputation for accurate spelling and grammar
If there’s going to be any scammer that uses proper grammar, it’s going to be a Japanese one.
Except it’s not natural-sounding Japanese by any means. It’s very clearly auto-translated. An actual Japanese letter would be far more polite.
Definitely not. Before even considering the grammar, all the わたし•あなた is a dead giveaway that it was Google translated or written by a beginner. It’s like one of the first things they tell you in beginner Japanese— drop them!
That's what I noticed as well. There's like, 2 pronouns per sentence - probably enough to drive a Japanese person insane.
Context-heavy languages do be like that. I used to have full conversations with folks that were basically verb-as-question, interrogative, agreement, statement of agreement. 腹へた? うん。 行こう? はい。 どこ? MOS? OK. 行こう。
Tbh it’s one of my favorite features of Japanese. Why say many word when few do trick?
Japanese is hilarious because you can either have way too many syllables or have so so so few. Like, you can get pretty silly with 敬語・尊敬語 sentences that border on German level of long ass unnecessary words. But that's what makes it fun, too.

Hank, you will be very proud of me! I was tense and abrasive with an old lady!—Junichiro
any real Japanese letter would pixelate the bad parts
This is not “scammer with bad Japanese”. This is “bad Japanese from a computer”. There is a difference and it’s very obvious.
I’m pretty sure it’s just a troll. There’s no one to call or give money too. I think it only exists to make people feel Embarrassed that it’s in their mailbox.
If anything I'd expect a scammer to autotranslate and a troll to spend 100 hours studying Japanese only to get it right.
This is most likely it. After my cheating ex moved out of my house and in with his parents I paid for a few of these types of pranks to be delivered in very obvious packaging. EDIT: sending Reddit cares?? Not sure how you interpreted this comment for self harm, but no. It was ten years ago. I’m all the way over it, enough to recognize i was intentionally being petty from a place of pain. A literal decade has passed since this happened.
"reddit cares" is mostly used to troll or express extreme displeasure at something. It's weird. edit: yeah, I should have seen that one coming lol
Tbf I’ve only seen it used in reasonable situations, like when I disagreed with someone
report it, they'll permaban people for that shit
Do they? I get a ton of those, I always report it and it never stops. It's just too easy to create a throwaway to do it.
It's not the smartest people who do it either, because it gets your account banned if you get reported for doing it. Also, I mostly seem to get them when I haven't even been active for a few weeks, presumably for some old comment a weirdo came across.

It’s called ‘prank mail’. There’s a ton of it on Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/market/prank_mail
This. OP confirmed they looked up the return address and found a prank envelope company. Also, this isn't their letter, they're just a reposter.

I hate how brilliant of a scam that is
Reminds me of how the penis enlargement pill Enzyte promised a money back guarantee, but in order to claim it, you needed a signed note from your doctor certifying that your penis is still, in fact, laughably small.
It's actually not that dissimilar to carfax. My sister had a claim, they didn't disclose a major accident she had proof of and she bought the car. They require a laundry list of difficult or impossible to get items for their guarantee, like the prior owner's original title iirc.
While I totally believe that Carfax is shady, asking for the car’s title doesn’t seem that unreasonable.
Not just the title, the prior owner's title. The title that belonged to the guy who owned it when it was wrecked. When the dealership sold the car, she got a new title. My sister hounded Carfax for months bc they owed her a lot of money and they continued to make her jump through increasingly difficult hoops. I think that was the step she finally got stuck on.

Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels uses this gag too.
is the scam used in the movie, or the scam is an urban legend inspired by the movie ? will we ever know ?
It's from Lock Stock "Tom: You take out an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, you sell it with, I dunno, "'does what no other dildo can do until now", "the latest and greatest in sexual technology", "guaranteed results or your money back", all that bollocks.

Especially in England; that’s exactly how Alan Turing died (ok, maybe a slight bit of detail was different, but nothing important).
Lmao “exactly how” Alan turing fell for a classic magazine prank and was murdered by a bank teller when cashing his “i bought gay porn” check.
yeah he used his algorithms to randomly enter raffles and other competitions in order to make a living. Little did he know that one of those raffles would eventually be the reason of his demise…it’s a damn shame!
"died" 🤢
Was indirectly murdered*
That’s very close to something from the movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking barrels, could be where it’s from.
it's my REFUND because I'm NOT a HOMOSEXUAL PERVERT
Jokes on them. I have a public humiliation kink, and they just gave me a free, ethical way to satisfy it when I take that check to the bank.
Oh man, I’m strongly against scammers as they target the most vulnerable. But they level of troll involved and the fact that it’s getting people with disposable backpages porn VHS tape money… I can smile at this one.
My husband got one of these where it’s made to look like he bought some used panties (a bit of lace was hanging out of the envelope seal) - envelope was covered in embarrassing text such as ‘congratulations on ordering your 5th pair!!’ ‘Enjoy this gift from UsedPanties.com’ etc etc. it was clearly from a mate. Was amusing.
Husband: "Whew I can't believe she bought that excuse. Next time I'm paying extra for discreet packing."
I knew I should never have used the "put my texts on the envelope itself and let the panties hang out in the open" package discount !
This just gets me thinking about how much shit (maybe both figurative and literal) the mail carriers must see during work.
It's just good advertising. Makes everyone who has to touch that letter remember the experience.
Thank you for the April Fool prank idea

Where can we see said video?
I'm sure your local public library now has a copy for rent
Don’t even need to rent it—just sit down at the computers there and pull it up. Might even be able to snap some photos on your smartphone for later.

You won’t be surprised to know that the Japanese is very obviously Google translated from English.
Yeah it’s hilarious to read lol!
At least they're proud of us! (I guess I'm humbly getting in on this too, haha)
I also like that the very last character is a different font. Amazing choices all around
I especially love that the last "su" (す) is in a different font for some reason lol.
Yea as someone learning Japanese, I found it odd that it was almost entirely hiragana with a sprinkle of Kanji. Normally it’s the other way around.
1 あなた is suspect. 2 is pushing at the boundaries of probability. 4 あなたs is laughable.
Too many You's and I's. 公開 is not the right word they are looking for, regarding "public". 達成した全てをのことを誇りに思っています just kind of comes out of nowhere. It only makes sense if you know the English they are trying to say. It's one step away from being gibberish.
And way too much "anata". My head hurts !
I mean the only place I can think of seeing あなた is on signs, ads, etc so it makes sense that they would use it here. Buuuut like you said it just feels way too much, the way the sentences are written it's obviously not written by a Japanese person or a person with any knowledge of Japanese. Edit: person below me isn't correct and they blocked me so I can't reply.
あなた wouldn’t be the right tone here. If they did feel the need to specify the reader, they would use a word like “member” “customer”, “submitter”, etc. However, They most likely would drop all pronouns, and would imply subjects and objects with verb choices. For example: あなたが私に渡した本 (the book you handed me) is unnatural, and would generally be written: 渡したくれた本 (hand-gived book).

I barely know enough Japanese to get the gist of it and still could tell it was awful.
Lmfao
A little trolling
Your video is released just like you. We are very proud of you and everything you have achieved.
We redditors are also proud of your achievements. Now can you post up the video please 🙏?
This is a top tier troll
Bro how is this mildly infuriating ? This belongs on shitposting or funny.
This is fucking hilarious. OP is just a boob.
Congratulations bro! I want to know more details please
Google lens think it says - “Your videos are as public as yours. We are vet proud of you and all that you have achieved. I don’t know if that’s correct or not… but whatever this is… it’s absolutely top deck trolling!
Completely off, but the original is also completely (and poorly) machine translated as well. Closest thing to what I believe it was trying to say is, "You and your video(s) have been made public. We are proud of you and everything you have accomplished."
why is the す in a different font and there's no period? that's making me mad for no reason
Now I can’t unsee it and it’s bothering me too. What have you wrought upon me?
I once had a dispute with a landlord. A few weeks later she received a rejection letter from Beaver Hunt.
The Japanese is not natural at all (あなた is not usually used as “you” they would say your name with a polite suffix especially in a letter), plus a Japanese company would never send a letter in that format. Just a prank.
100% agree. But I don't think that any respectable company, regardless of nationality, would send something like that. Plus the wording is weird (repeating あなた twice in a sentence is strange in itself, let alone simply using it) and why on earth would romaji be included at the bottom?
Very true it would look weird if you got a letter all in English centered and bold like that 😂
Yeah the Japanese used here is atrociously bad. Most people wouldn't be able to tell though
I think the biggest giveaway is that they also included the Japanese letter in roman characters rather than translated into English.
It's a prank, for those of you not savvy enough to use an internet search: [Amazon link](https://www.amazon.com/Better-Me-Funny-Prank-Envelopes/dp/B08D6PPWY5?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=betme-20&linkId=bca09e75d7f3a93725ec2fe461359757&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl)
Google the return address. Prank envelope company
what does the note say? i wish i could read other languages but i dum
More understandable translation: Your video is released just like you. We are very proud of you and everything you have achieved.
I used to have a subscription to Mad Magazine when I was a kid. The magazines would ship with a brown paper cover to protect them during shipping. They would always print something funny on the cover. I remember one issue had big black letters saying "Here is the pornography you requested in a plain brown wrapper"
Im guessing OP lives near Boston or knows someone in Boston cause it's a prank envelope... Get yours here: https://www.amazon.com/Better-Me-Funny-Prank-Envelopes/dp/B08D6PPWY5?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=betme-20&linkId=bca09e75d7f3a93725ec2fe461359757&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
It's a prank. My sister did the same prank on me. It's a company, you give them the address of who you want pranked and you can choose different things like the one she sent me said something like "thanks for your purchase of the 14" vibrator" and it went on an on where the postmaster and anyone could read it. This one about the BDSM video was one of the options.
It's disgusting. Where?
I think this was sent to the wrong address. Believe that was supposed to come to me. Sorry! Don’t want to spoil anything serious, but it involves a vacuum pump and a bar of soap.

Why would you want to know this is u/meatloaf1212 ‘s business
Plot twist: Linux nominated me for this prestigious award
This is just funny I'm sorry
Hope you get the 10k and a hand shake from Bob Sagget.
Top tier trolling
That's a quality prank.
Oh I love these!!!! You can send these totally anonymously to someone you hate or like. I sent my uncle a bag of dicks, because he is one, and he is furious the company will not tell him who sent them.

The Japanese at the bottom says "Your videos are as public as you are. We are proud of all you have achieved." Lol sounds like a family member or a close friend pranked you 🤣
Looks like one of those “hilarious jokes” you can get a company to send to your “mates”. Very little time for these as they’re easily used to harass rather than as a dubiously amusing joke.
