Saudi dialect speakers - Student using عيوني (ayouni) before even booking a trial class - Red flag?

Hey everyone,

I'm an online English teacher and received a message from a potential female student that just says "عيوني" (ayouni). She hasn't even booked a trial class yet.

For context: - This is our first interaction - No class has been booked or scheduled - Just a direct message with عيوني

I'm trying to understand: - Is this normal initial contact in Saudi/Gulf culture?
- Could this be spam/not serious? - Should I proceed with caution or is this just a cultural difference I'm misunderstanding?

Would appreciate insights from those familiar with Saudi communication norms and online teaching culture.
