I'm really curious to know how did you do the Monica voice, it seems like AI, but with an inflection of your own voice and tone
It's my voice (with some 'performance' to try to sound a bit more feminine), plus a voice changer
@@AtomicShrimp It's a really good voice changer! Would you be willing to share which one specifically? I totally understand if not. Thanks for the reply! Cheers ♥
Eleven Labs - it uses neural models for the voice-to-voice, but the original intonation and performance is preserved
@@AtomicShrimp I thought it was your wife, technology is amazing!
@@AtomicShrimp Impressive.
The "Small Boy Gambit" is one of my favorite moves of yours and now I've started using it on my cat when he's yowling for food with a full bowl in front of him.
Now that's just CRUEL
Some cats are social eaters and like to have you eat with them. Others have sensitive whiskers so the bowl’s edge could be bothering them
15:40 insinuating the scammer is a "small boy" is always a highlight. Thank you for providing an excellent collection once again.
The "small boy gambit" is top tier.
The Shrimp says “What, are you a…?” The crowd roars: “SMALL BOY?
I am waiting for the moment when someone doesn't get hitched with unrighteous indignation and says "yes, I am".
scammers from india in particular seem to give the most radical reactions to this
I now call FB romance scammers "a small boy from a small village, a fooool." I spell it that way to avoid triggering the algorithm.
Quoting Leviticus was NOT on my scammer bingo card.
past tense?
I'm so glad I clecked on this video.
Same
So am , I. 🤣
Are you? That sounds vaguely insulting. Perhaps a cruel word, spoken by a small boy?
are you sure you aren't a cleck?
@@capacitatedflux My friend be rest assured, I am not a small boy. I am an elderly just like you.
I never played the lottery. Years ago, a former co-worker who regularly did, told me (in a worried tone) "if you never play, you will never win". I feel vindicated now. Thank you, soul called Angela, USA UK MEGA MILLIONS AND BBC NATIONAL LOTTERY and MICRO SOFT!
What a world we live in...
With the lottery, you miss 100% of the tickets you don't take and almost 100% of the tickets you do.
Im somewhat disappointed the UN didn't feel the need to contribute. I'm sure they would know if you attach the ment.
@snooganslestat2030 be rest assured that the United Nation will contribute some United State USD $ Dollars.
@@GolosinasArgentinas Kindly advise if i shall await the diplomatic courier travelling speedily with gold bars?
The "Read More..." part killed me.
for real! 😂
That part was really funny.
*Show quoted text*
The "small boys all the way down" bit broke me lol
17:36 "I do want to cooperate. I just don't want to do what you said." 😂
This channel is pure gold lol! This video made my day, thanks!
This channel isn't made of pure gold, it's actually made of Slaughter Sauce, now slightly safer for human consumption!
small boy is truly such an evergreen insult. never fails to get a rise out of them
"miscreants & mischief makers" that'll make a good name for an Album.
Gives me mega _“I am the Silver Shroud!”_ energy

@@SkeletonSyskeySKELETON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"But I do play the lottery, so I'm probably not eligible for the prize"
I laugh like a small boy every time the "small boy" bit happens.
The Connelly may in fact be the being that rules over Slaughter Valley. I would ask them about it, but questions are unnecessary.
0:58 based on the graphic design of the USA UK mega millions and BBC national lottery document, i never would have expected it to be related to something that happened less than 20 years ago, let alone 2024
I'd say less than 40 years ago
That doc was probably thrown together back in 1995 and has not been updated once since then lol
Some scammers really do only put in the absolute bare minimum effort in their scams.
Right?? I got such a nostalgic feeling from that dumb thing lol
Give him a break. What do you expect from some Nigerian with no education at all and only a pirated version of MS Office 2000. He's doing his best. 😭
Unless organised by the local council or school. Both are incapable of good graphic design
(In case it wasn't clear. This was a joke. If you get these scans they are not from your local school or council, they are a scam)
"Hello, ma baby, hello, Ma-Honey, hello, ma ragtime gal, send me a kiss by wire, baby, my heart's on fire..."
"if you refuse me honey you'll lose me"

Wow, they must think people are dumb! My husband loves quacking on the phone when the ones call saying they want to clean our ducts. He says Quack Quack Quack --and they hang up =).
For those who call asking if I'm the homeowner, I wind up asking, "Who's Homer? Sorry, I don't know a Homer. I think you have the wrong number."
i thought "quacking on the phone" was a slang term for being a blabbermouth, so the end caught me completely off guard
I tell them I'm 5, and they block me.
"There is no need for a fee."
"Mind tricks don't work on me, only sending the fee does."
"MICRO SOFT" is my favorite thing 🤣
Or a par with ‘The Microsoft’ so beloved of Indian phone scammers.
NEW YORK DINGUS needs enter the realm of the recurring
i think i want "space comma" on a t-shirt.
In the vast vacuum of space, no-one can hear you punctuate…
Space comma, man! Space comma!
I just saw a meme on Facebook that said a kid had called apostrophes "flying commas", I guess they could also be called space commas.
I always love the Small Boy Gambit, it makes the scammers mad almost without fail
10:24 Dang, I wasn't expecting Monsieur Tourneur to dash his cookbook with _that_ type of light flavoring.
Oh good someone else who has seemingly permanent word association with “ambassador” and “ferraro rocher”
I love the idea of the gestalt entity The Connolly ... presumably it must include The Big Yin and deserves a touch of Glaswegian accent to do it justice 👍😀
surely The Connolley would be Irish? if any gestalt entity would be Scottish, it would be The Morrison!
@@caramelldansen2204 Just in case you are from the USA - Billy Connolly is a Scottish comedian. Nickname ""the Big Yin" which I think means "The Big One."
Cleck yeah! Hopefully the US UK BBC Lotto (whatever the cleck it was) will accept the fee through a 30yr fixed rate installment plan 😁
Maybe the "space coma" can reveal where the scammer comes from. For example, in France we put space after single-shaped signs like coma ("coma space"), but we put space before and after two-shaped signs like semi-column/exclamation mark/question mark as in "space semi-column space". And a lot of times, when I write in English, my auto-correct will write "How are you ?" and not "How are you?"
Even without any investigation or use of evidence like yourself, I would reckon they are from India. Consider it a hunch.
@@shallowgod5539Indian scammers seem to prefer using phone-based scams rather than email-based ones. Also, plenty of African countries were once French colonies, so OP might be on to something.
the space-comma could just be a result of copy/pasting segments of text where a space is added on the end automatically
@@shallowgod5539 Maybe one of the francophone African countries? There was the lapse into poste, after all.
Probably Burkina Faso - former French colony and although the official language of French has now been discarded, in practice, the working languages there are French and English
An Atomic Shrimp scambait? I clecked the moment I saw it
Is this in the cybersecurity sense or are you some kind of bird?
Perhaps a small bird?
@@ashleybyrd2015 I'm a cyberbird. We are well known for our clecking
Oh, Mr Shrimp. With these scambaits you are really spoiling us.
I greatly appreciate the way you talk during these scam baiting email videos.
It makes it really easy to listen to, kinda like the old show "The Curiosity Show," blending a mix of friendly and familiar demeanor, informative and insightful tips, and small bits of comedy.
This is largely just for improving the video's engagement, but keep up the lovely format, it's a very calming and entertaining way to occupy mealtime.
When you told the scammer it was time to move past the fee, I bust out laughing.
Just the best. Thanks for everything you do.
I'm thrilled that the small boy gambit finally worked.
Bro still having the Barrister Song as your scam bait intro is legendary. Been watching a long time. Glad you’re still able to do this
I'd love to point out to them that since I play the lottery I should not be included in a lottery for people that don't play the lottery...
I’m one of these people who really only watch your scambaiting videos - I’m probably missing out on quite a bit of fun there but I’m trying to keep my internet consumption low and I like content I can listen to while working.
These videos are the main thing I look forward to on TH-cam by a long shot.
I’m about to put this on and transform my nuclear fallout living room into a sanctuary. Cant wait.
Attach Mints are a delicious after-email snack.
what about Davis Bon though? is he feeling alright again?
This has been keeping me up at night, I gotta know.
I heard he passed away, but that was ages ago. I hope we get an update.
Only Mc McAllister can confirm the current status of Davis Bon. We'll have to wait until we get word from him. Maybe he'll also finally give us the girth.
Hims in pains
He’s with John Barosa
>Please let me know when you've found a grown up i can speak to
This is such a good comeback...defo gonna steal that lol
i named one of my characters in my AI "cleck" after your video(s) of cleck.
here's his character description heh
Cleck is a somewhat helpful assistant. He gets distracted easily, and will always recite a random animal fact after answering a query. He wishes to be helpful, but sometimes his awkwardness gets in the way. He speaks in a nervous fashion, however will become somewhat confident after the first few words. He is optimistic.
I completely lost it when talking about the "ambassador" the Ferrero Rocher ad showed up 🤣🤣🤣
The surprising return of John Warosa
You made me think of Davis Bon 😔
Is he still dead?
What about John Borosa?
sounds like them trying to get the fee from you was a fee-ble attempt.
🤭
Feeable sound like a word
it does. lol.@@volodyadykun6490
oh my god. the voice game at the cleck saga was next level stuff. much more immersive into the narrative
Does 10:25 imply that you start baking the cake, then stir the batter. Then add the ingredients. Then add the bowl, mister shrimp?
Start by eating the cake, to fortify yourself for the effort of baking the cake.
@@AtomicShrimp oh. This brings such clarity. I will try this next time as to expedite solving my hunger
It will certainly fortify you especially as the next two steps are especially hazardous: cutting it; and blowing out the candles!
I clecked on this as soon as I saw it. I don't often get scam emails, but when I do, I love telling them that I am not the person who received their email because I have been dead for several years, and have no need of their non-existent money. However, if they were stupid enough to send another email, I would find them, and haunt them for all eternity.
They never come back to me. 😆😆😆

I feel attached already.
Always enjoy your videos on these scam baits.
And the impeccable manglish text these messages are written with.
Cheers.
The CLECK is back!!
Lol what is the cleck??
@@DL-zq5iean ugly phenomenon in cybersecurity
@@DL-zq5ieA small boy whose funds are not glarded.
I can't believe Monica asked to speak with the owner.
I loved the Monica voice effect! Fun and interesting!
Return of the space comma!
“Taken possession of the Internet” 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Gotta say I've become very attached to this series.
Or perhaps "I've become very ment to this series."
I see that scammers are now getting in on the flat earthers’ territory by usurping the space comma. 😆
There's no such thing as space
@@theneoreformationist - yeah there is…between flerfs’ ears…and between some scammers’ ears too.
12:05 good ol’ Paul S! He never gives up!
Loving all the references in this.
couple ideas;
Send them pictures of gift cards that are completely wrong. If they ask for ITunes, send an empty Starbucks card or something and then act like you have no idea what the difference is.
Also try to make your emails difficult to read by messing up font, font size, color, etc… but still make it possible to read so that they don’t give up
Can’t believe every single Connolly in the world merged into one, singular, mega Connolly, a literal Big Yin if you will
The small boy joke gets funnier each time
Low-key wish I was related to this dude. He does a ton of cool stuff outside of scam emails, and I'd totally want to tag along.
NEED MORE FOREGING
I really appreciate your videos, Shrimp. Aside from the obvious comedy, It also does a good job of encouraging people to actually read into more detail instead of just taking claims at face value; something that can be applied to all aspects of life and not just strangers on the internet.
"Now there was no email either, as well as no attachment!" 🤣
I can't believe that even with your incredibly detailed reminder, he continued putting space comma. Clearly some sort of small boy.
Thanks so much for making all these videos. I watch a lot of them bit dont often comment.i watch them often late at night when i'm sad because they always lift my spirits. 💜
Those book covers at 10:25 are hilarious.
I've been watching your videos on repeat waiting for another. Can't wait for the bonus cleck
Instant thumbs up for the scambaiting content!! Thanks Mr Shrimp 👍
24:00 the FBI agent stamp 😂
LOL! They seem to really take offense at being called a small boy. Keep up the good work. I HATE scammers.
OMG thank you so much for the good time! Asking the scammer whether he's a small boy always cracks me up, I literally lost it around 15:49 and then later on. Not to mention the "small boy gambit" you mention 😂🤣🤣🤣
A new video to fall asleep to! Thank you! (Not that these are boring theyrenjust really well told stories and your voice is really relaxing)
As I watch this, I remember watching a TED talk on how comedian James Veitch played around with a scammer who was pretending to sell him gold. Please watch that TED talk, it's hilarious.
I love listening to shrimp click bait while doing things around my place! Well done, sir. Hats off to you.
I'm glad I had finished eating before the comma video or I would have sprayed my computer with food when I laughed.
This was a lovely treat at the end of my holiday week - thank you, dear Shrimp! You made wood-treating fence panels much more tolerable. (I do enjoy the scambaiting videos much more than the gardening/slow* ones, but I expect that the scambaiting ones take much more R&D and editing.)
You are edging dangerously close to the 1 million subscribers mark. Do you know what you're going to do to celebrate?
That was fun. I don't want to bother with and just delete. I'm so glad you take the time to waste their time and call them small boys
Imagine your job being to be nice and maintain relations with heads of state and you talk like this
Loving the clever editing :)
I'm incredibly surprised by the scammer that went on for years, by that time you would think they would have catched that you really have no intension of paying. Heck, a person can start a family in the time you've exchanged emails and still they refuse to consider you might be pulling their leg. If I didn't know better I would think it's an automathic response the way they can't not respond
WOW! That Ferrero Rocher ad had me laughing. Even when I was a young boy that ad -and the scenario it portrayed- has so unrealistic our family and friends made fun of it.
7:32 Scammer had detached :O
If you think ambassadors are always friendly and service-minded, you haven't visited the French embassy 😂
Space Comma! An exciting new 13 part serial coming soon to this cinema. Watch as the Punctuation Patrol travel the galaxy semi-ing colons, exclaiming marks and unsplitting infinitives.
12:35 Your consistency is commendable AS 😂
this is Art , :you sir- are creating poetry
next level there is no why
this is now
and I applaud you
Very long scam bite! But I'm happy for more!
What I like about you, is the way you read these emails and that you are different than other scambaiters
Rofl, The Connelly would be a good name for a sci-fi villain😂
On Dr Who!
You have quite a large range of content and I love all of it.
Always a pleasure to see you've uploaded
I’m glad another small boy found employment! Nobody wants to work anymore!
I would love if some lottery winner actually did say to the press "I don't want to say what I'm going to do with this money because I'm concerned about internet scammers impersonating me" just because I'm sure some scammer would try to impersonate them anyway and they'd trip themselves up trying to explain that.
Space commas!! Space commas *everywhere!!* Thanks for the smile, Mr. Shrimp!! 🤣
You get a space comma! You get a space comma! Everyone gets a space comma!
@@yastreb. 🤣🤣
OK, just got to share this AI generated gem. The search was, ”just buy the damn cake."
"Just buy the damn cake
It seems like you’re craving something sweet and indulgent! Based on the search results, it appears that “eating the damn cake” is not just about consuming a delicious treat, but also about embracing the idea of taking what you want without guilt or shame. It’s about breaking free from societal expectations and societal norms that dictate what we should or shouldn’t do.
The stories shared suggest that people want to “eat the damn cake” in various aspects of their lives, whether it’s in their careers, relationships, or personal growth. It’s about taking control and making choices that bring them joy and fulfillment.
So, if you’re feeling the urge to “just buy the damn cake,” maybe it’s time to listen to that inner voice and treat yourself to something special. Whether it’s a slice of cake, a new experience, or a personal achievement, remember that it’s okay to indulge and prioritize your own happiness."
Cleck yeah! I love these clecking videos!!! Hopefully one of these clecks will allow you to send the fee using an installment plan. Say 30 year fix rate? 😁
You would think that a company about to send you millions, would just take the 'fee' from the millions and send the rest.
I have used the small boy gambit and it works every time, thanks AS!
I love winning the lottery in the 1st category. Those 2nd category lotteries just never measure up.
Just the laugh I needed after a rough day at work. Thank you , Atomic Shrimp!! 😂
