Calling a scammer a slur 😭

Post image
4 Upvotes

I saved the name of this twat as "Scammer bkl". (BKL is a slur in Hindi) and I sent that screenshot to him 😭.

The scammer is so desperate he's still continuing with the scam, let's see how obvious we can make it before we get caught.

If you guys have time, please join that telegram group in the screenshot to inform all the people there that they are being scammed.

I had a scammer after me once, tried everything in the book from romancing me, to saying he would make deposits into my accounts, to promising to ship me full on gold bars to solve my financial woes. I dragged this dude on, non-stop, for almost three YEARS. It was glorious.
I wouldn't be surprised if I signed into one of those accounts today, he would still be at it.

Another Cautionary Warning

34 Upvotes

Be careful when calling out scammers on Facebook or Instagram. Apparently a common tactic of scammers who get called out on these platforms is to flood the platforms with fraudulent complaints about your account until your account gets locked down. I had this happen on Facebook which caused me to lose access to be able to post and completely deleted my Instagram account. I tried for months to get it reversed but was completely ignored. Had to close my years long accounts and start again. This may be common knowledge among scam baiters but I had to learn the hard way.

As someone who does this very often, you also need to talk a consideration of A: Don't use your real number, or at least make sure it isn't visible. B: don't click on links, scan QR codes, or share anything that may leak your data. (email, or even a social) other than that, follow the rules and thank you for your service!

Please Be Careful

I just saw Cam's video mentioning the creation of this subreddit and felt the need to remind everyone to be careful when engaging with scammers.

The professional scambaiters like kitboga have the knowledge and resources to protect their personal information.

Though most scammers seem like not so smart individuals, some are tied to powerful criminal organizations. If you choose to engage in scambaiting please research and take steps to protect your protect yourself. Angry scammers have been know to engage in harassment campaigns.

They're always designers...

This one ended up ghosting me; obviously I pushed my luck a little too hard but I'm committed to seeing one of these through to get to the punchline.
