‘Be a good girl for me’: The sleazy leaked Snapchats from ‘nice guy’ influencer ‘Calum with Kindness’ that have Central Coast mums sounding the alarm
Snapchat messages allegedly sent by Calum Fentie to young women have prompted renewed scrutiny of the Central Coast influencer, whose online persona centres on acts of kindness. The messages, which include flirtatious remarks, contrast with his public image and have revived concerns among some local parents about how he approaches women in his videos.
Screenshots circulating online show Fentie asking a woman if she is free that evening and sending other suggestive messages. A local source said he allegedly removed related material and blocked women who challenged him; the article says there is no evidence of wrongdoing in the messages and does not suggest the women are underage. Fentie has about 170,000 TikTok followers, and the article also recalls earlier concerns over videos in which he asked women if they were single or sought their phone numbers, as well as his 2015 imprisonment after stabbing three teenagers.
In short
- Leaked messages allegedly sent by Calum Fentie are circulating online.
- Some Central Coast parents say his videos have raised concerns.
- The article reports no evidence of wrongdoing in the messages.
Steelman: both sides, in good faith
The strongest fair case each way — we don't pick a winner.
The case for
The messages, if authentic, may reasonably trouble people who feel they sit uneasily with an influencer’s carefully cultivated image of kindness, especially given earlier concerns about how he approached women in videos. Parents and viewers can argue that public scrutiny is warranted when a large following gives someone influence and their conduct appears relevant to the trust placed in that persona.
The case against
Flirtatious or suggestive messages between adults are not, by themselves, evidence of wrongdoing, and the article says it does not establish any. A fair-minded view would caution against treating circulating screenshots or allegations about deleted material as proof, or allowing his past conviction and public image to determine how ambiguous private exchanges are judged.
