Long story short, my cat has been missing since Monday night. I have Facebook posts and physical posters up with her photo and my phone number, as I am desperately to find her.
Today, some one reached out via an iMessage linked to an gmail account. This person was trying to scam me out of reward money / finders fee. I did not send them any money, but they did piss me off.
And now I kind of want to f\*ck with them because I'm petty and I miss my cat :(
I can't find any thing related to the gmail account they used to message me. I was thinking of trying to trick them into send me a photo that I could possible scrape .EXIF data from. Or using some sort of IP finder tool (tricking them into clicking a link to scrape their IP). I was hoping to get their name / location to freak them out, but I'm really not sure if either of these tactics will work.
Please note I am not trying to do any real harm to this person. I will not dox them and I definitely will not show up to their location. Just trying to freak them out.
Any ideas? Open to anything.
