I know of a whole bunch of starving Nigerian princes who can’t afford to buy food because the can’t get anyone to help them transfer their billions of dollars who could really use that money 😢
I love talking to scammers. I’ve been doing it for years. I get comfortable and then agree to everything they say. I order multiples of whatever they’re “offering” and get ALL the upgrades and extras. I’ve even put one of them on hold for 5 minutes while I made a coffee. After I’ve agreed and bought everything they’ve said to buy they then ask me for my details and in my sweetest most annoying voice I can muster I answer all their pleas with one word. A slightly drawn out “nooo”…every time they ask. I’ve learnt all the swear words as they realise that I’m just screwing with them for my own amusement and start trying to upset me. I just laugh as all I hear are the sounds of victory. 😁
@@Amauvy Not necessarily since they're probably using that second that I'm wasting to focus only on me and not scamming someone more gullible. It's a fair trade.

I shared this video with my dad and he tried OK on the next scam telephone call he received. The scammer quickly lost patience, called my dad a name and hung up. My dad is 78 and retired and he annoys scammers for fun.
I enjoy the car warranty scams. When they ask me what car i have i say rolls Royce phantom or Bugatti veryon ( not sure the spelling) they hang up automatically
Yeah I got one of those scam calls from the "police looking into fraudulent activity on my ss#" I answered with hello Officer Scammer, which she proceeded to try and tell me I was on recording and they were taking note of everything I was saying. So I just kept saying OK for like 2 mins.
I got to witness my grandpa messing with a scammer just a few days ago. I was thrilled, because I do the same thing and had never seen that side of him! They called my great-grandmother’s phone and she answered on speaker. My grandpa’s eyes lit up and he says “oooh that’s for me” and snags her phone. When they came on the line he imitated his voice and it was the funniest thing I had seen in a long time. We were all dying of laughter! I’m so glad I’m not the only one who enjoys wasting scammers’ time.

I once said "nice scam" to one of these guys... he said "thanks" and went into the full details of how the scam worked. He asked me if I was interested. I was absolutely stunned. The only thing I could think of was to say "sure, give me your contact information....". In which they were like "oh..." and promptly hung up. I was laughing and crying both at the same time.
I love the low impact this technique has on your time but then the high impact it has on the scammer's time. You can go about your life as normal with the occasional reply, but then the scammer has to give their full attention. Genius
SeHaziq Christian cannot do any sins because if you keep doing those sins you will go to hell cmon man,doesn’t mean that if he forgives,you will stay in heaven. You might as well go to hell if you’ve done something very bad even though you prayed for forgiveness.

@@did_I_hurt_your_fee_fees A lot of scammers like to target the elderly, and will hang up if someone says they aren’t over 65. Big scamming companies realize that the average adult won’t fall for a scam, so they go for more vulnerable people instead. And, you know, some people can just be too hopeful. When everything seems dull, a little bit of luck can get you very excited. So people who aren’t thoroughly informed on the dangers of scams and are in a state where they’re in desperate need of a miracle will try to believe in the best outcome: that they get the money, and live happily from then on. So thus, they fall for it. Admittedly, it’s dumb, yes, but it’s possible. Without dumb, hopeful people, scammers would go out of business.
@@CottonRage What a shame. I wish more people could be informed. I mean, almost everyone has a smartphone and almost everyone has internet. Hopefully more people will learn that luck is very rare and it's better to temper your hope to more realistic levels.
No guilt. Scammers are scum. This made me laugh so loud my cat ran up and snuggled me cheerfully because when I sound excited he gets all excited. So feel good, you made a cat laugh today!
My friend sent me this to help me cope with the fact my favourite headband that I've been wearing consistently for over a year, maybe even 2 or 3, has snapped. Thanks mate, this brought a smile to my face :')
The brilliant thing here is, although you didn't win the BMW and the money, thanks to the scammer you have a video that did pretty well and earns you ad revenue. Gotta love when things work out like this.
I recently got scammed so this just helped me laugh a bit :) I did a similar thing with a 'if I can't get the money back at least let me annoy them while I get to contact an anti-scam agency' kind of attitude but since I enjoy texting I was just sending them lots of elaborate messages, I impersonated the role of an annoying educator on life and the basics of human interactions and how society/life works. Whether I succeded at annoying them or not I still had fun in the process and it helped me release my frustration.
This really makes me wonder how much scammer time could be wasted with a simple AI that alternates between saying a few simple phrases like: "Okay", "Sounds good", "How do I do that exactly?" "Why do I need to do that?"
You can't waste any of the scammers time, you're not communicating with a scammer. All of the responses you receive are from a chatbot. The scammer doesn't even read any of the messages, they just setup the mass e-mail to a list they bought, setup the chatbot to auto-respond from the script, and then check the designated western union, PO Box, or whatever payment method they have configured into the script. The whole thing takes about an hour to setup and 5 minutes a day to see if any money has shown up.
@@FalkenThunder ??? What brings you to that conclusion? Everything about this screams AI. The one-track theme, the strange reaction to otherwise co-operative behavior, even the overall word choices and punctuation/grammar seems more likely to be from an AI than a human. Mostly, however, look at this logically: These kind of scams are remarkably inefficient. Very few people even respond, and many email providers are pretty good at filtering them out. Additionally, there are a ton of honeypots that swamp these things with automated replies to protect their email customers by poisoning the well with tens of thousands of replies that are gibberish. As a result, the scammers need to send out millions of these messages initially to get a few hundred valuable responses, but they get millions of junk responses. The only way to make the scam viable is to automate the response handling. The easy answer is to get a chatbot with a specific formula that is designed to induce the victim to send money if they are real. Then its just a set-it and forget-it scam and you just check for the money as I indicated.
Scammer: “Hello? Yes, would you be interested in-“ Me: “Oh! I’m so glad you called, we’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty!”
Not email related, but one of the BEST things you can do for phone scams is play dumb as long as you can and keep those shmucks on the line as long as humanly possible. The longer they're on the line with you, the less people they can call and scam that day. I kept one on the phone for thirty minutes once, and there was nothing more satisfying.
I don’t know how anyone could conclude that it’s cruel to waste the time of someone who’s trying to rob you. My pet peeve is the calls. A friend told me his brother takes the calls and tries to waste as much time of theirs as possible. I did that successfully once, but 99% of the time, they hang up on me before the third sentence is spoken. Am I on some sort of “don’t waste your time on him list” that takes 8 seconds to pop up on screen? If so, I wish they would just program my number off of the list altogether.
I was thinking the same, they spend their lives using deception and taking advantage of people's naivete in order to steal their hard and honestly earned money and gain a profit that they did not work to earn, how is wasting their time or annoying them at all immoral? This strategy is the least harmful revenge to have ever existed!
Don't you think OK is too much just reply with "K" with next time. Edit: Damm.. That blew up thanks folks. @Delta Lima Bravo LoL! I literally had to turn off notifications about this post. Good job you're doing replying everyone.
Here we see a scammer in his natural habitat. He's a dangerous bugger, and a rather large specimen for this particular species, but I'm going to walk right into his lair, and shove an HDMI cord up his ass. Let's see how he reacts. Oh he's really riled up now! I should be careful around such a deadly critter, but in the intrest of learning more about the species, I'm going to taunt him some more...
I understand most of these scamers are from Africa and probably just trying to fee their family but it defo doesn't give them the right to scam vulnerable people over here so no we shouldn't feel bad :/
@@zombiegameruk i don't care where they come from. Being a low IQ savage from a 3rd world shithole doesn't give you the right to take advantage of someone who is overly trusting.
@Frauenarzt Dr. Stefan Frank you sound awfully sympathetic to those phone scammers ,huh? I wonder if you'll be so sympathetic if you ever get scammed for thousands of dollars?
I've engaged scammers as well, and saying that paying means you won't eat, is always met with a response that shows they have no remorse or care for their victims.
Well yeah but you were also lying so it's kind of irrelevant. Scammers aren't idiots, they know you're lying just as much as you know they are scamming people. If they were stupid enough to believe you they would be falling for their own scams.
@@SkelNeldory who said I was lying? I actually wasn't at the time. The point is that scammers are scum who are willing to take from people who can't afford it. They are an EVIL that deserves to be eradicated.
You should feel no guilt in any way for countering such a horrible criminal fraud. Wasting their time is perfect if it saves them even finding time to do one more scam. I salute you for persevering with annoying and baiting these nut cases.
Only messed with scammers once. They were trying to hock some medicine or something. “Are you experiencing any pain” I had just been woken up and haven’t had this opportunity before, so I just stumbled out the first thing I could think of. “I am… experiencing… emotional pain.” The scammer proceeded to ramble about Katy Perry songs and to keep my chin up, life gets better, yada yada. Best scam call ever.
A scammer once scammed my elderly neighbor out of their retirement money (around 50k). She contacted the FBI after she was scammed but the money was all sent to a foreign account and nothing could be done. My neighbor thought it was the IRS and never asked me for advice until it was too late. Scammers do not deserve your respect. Think of her whenever you deal with one and what they did.
A much more entertaining way is to always reply to their messages with the answer from a Magic 8-Ball. With random answers like, "Yes", "It is certain, "Signs point to yes" to "Reply hazy, try again", "Concentrate and ask again" to "Don't count on it" and "Outlook not so good." If you're really bored and wanting to waste the time of a scammer with a little humor on the side, this is the way to go. Sponsored by Magic 8-Ball. :)
The way they demand things is disgusting. The fact they pray on the elderly or disabled and the anger they have. The idea someone is trying to do this horrible scam and they have the balls to GET ANGRY!? It’s so disgusting. I love the guy that hacks them and shows them their webcam on his computer.
@@randomnameisrequiredapparently Yeah, that's basically the problem with being an idiot. It's that you're unable to see how incompetent you actually are. For them, this bullshit is like a master move on chess lol.
Unfortunately my dad has fallen to repetitive scams like this, he's in his late 70s and he can't make logical decisions, he ended up losing more than 5000 dollars, and yes that's A LOT OF MONEY in my country, I wish the worst for those scammers...
@@VWRGTI that is heartbreaking. Have you shown him these videos? Maybe you can install an app on his phone, like ATT has one that makes sure unknown calls show up as “scam likely” and there are ways you can filter his emails too. A few ways to help make sure he doesn’t fall victim to these assholes.
Last part really made me think the things these scumbags would do for money. The mail you sent could very well have been sent by someone with actual financial problems and they still don't care
G0LIATH They scam you from out of country, usually India or Pakistan who has no intent on prosecuting them even if they could catch them, which they cant and wont bother anyway
@G0LIATH Most scammers aren't from the same country as the one they're actually scamming. So your law don't apply to them and they're usually from a third wold country, so they don't have much to loose..
@@arhamshahid5015 He's quite correct actually. Most scams do come from india, and the government/police isn't willing to do anything about it in those places.
A scammer once called me to say that my brother was in a car crash with him, was lying unconscious and apparently owed money to him and I that I had to pay it. Seems it was obviously a scam I decided to ask him to send me a picture of him and ask for a name and such, which he obviously "wasnt able to provide". After a few minutes he got angry and said that if I didn't send the money he "didn't knew what he was going to do to him". So I "Ok, tell him I said hi when he wakes up". Anyway, my brother was downstairs the whole time
Never feel bad for wasting a scammer’s time, that’s time they would have spent ripping off someone who’s elderly, confused, desperate for money. There is no good faith in tricking people out of their money.

I enjoy exploring new and creative ways to ruin a scammer's day. I have learned several profane words and phrases in their native language, and I have researched extensively the most deeply hurtful insults one can say to people in that culture. I like to keep them hanging on the line for as long as possible before I let them have it.
We used to get a lot of telephone scammers here in Oz, but I came up an idea, as soon as I can during the conversation I ask them (in what I call my dirty old man voice) “what are you wearing?, if you tell me what you are wearing I will tell you what I am wearing “ and so on. They seem to hang up very quickly!😅
My dog ran away, and I was amazed at how many scammers told me they had her and to send them money to get her back. One guy, after I laid everything out for him and proved to him that he was sending me photoshopped images, had the nerve to continue to argue with me that I was a bad person for calling him a liar. These people do not have souls.

The brilliant thing here is, although you didn't win the BMW and the money, thanks to the scammer you have a video that did pretty well and earns you ad revenue. Gotta love when things work out like this.

I recently got scammed so this just helped me laugh a bit :) I did a similar thing with a 'if I can't get the money back at least let me annoy them while I get to contact an anti-scam agency' kind of attitude but since I enjoy texting I was just sending them lots of elaborate messages, I impersonated the role of an annoying educator on life and the basics of human interactions and how society/life works. Whether I succeded at annoying them or not I still had fun in the process and it helped me release my frustration.
This really makes me wonder how much scammer time could be wasted with a simple AI that alternates between saying a few simple phrases like: "Okay", "Sounds good", "How do I do that exactly?" "Why do I need to do that?"
You can't waste any of the scammers time, you're not communicating with a scammer. All of the responses you receive are from a chatbot. The scammer doesn't even read any of the messages, they just setup the mass e-mail to a list they bought, setup the chatbot to auto-respond from the script, and then check the designated western union, PO Box, or whatever payment method they have configured into the script. The whole thing takes about an hour to setup and 5 minutes a day to see if any money has shown up.
@@ericschumann4213 I mean this scammer is obviously typing these things himself, and not an AI.
@@FalkenThunder ??? What brings you to that conclusion? Everything about this screams AI. The one-track theme, the strange reaction to otherwise co-operative behavior, even the overall word choices and punctuation/grammar seems more likely to be from an AI than a human.
Mostly, however, look at this logically: These kind of scams are remarkably inefficient. Very few people even respond, and many email providers are pretty good at filtering them out. Additionally, there are a ton of honeypots that swamp these things with automated replies to protect their email customers by poisoning the well with tens of thousands of replies that are gibberish. As a result, the scammers need to send out millions of these messages initially to get a few hundred valuable responses, but they get millions of junk responses. The only way to make the scam viable is to automate the response handling. The easy answer is to get a chatbot with a specific formula that is designed to induce the victim to send money if they are real. Then its just a set-it and forget-it scam and you just check for the money as I indicated.

Not email related, but one of the BEST things you can do for phone scams is play dumb as long as you can and keep those shmucks on the line as long as humanly possible. The longer they're on the line with you, the less people they can call and scam that day. I kept one on the phone for thirty minutes once, and there was nothing more satisfying.

I don’t know how anyone could conclude that it’s cruel to waste the time of someone who’s trying to rob you. My pet peeve is the calls. A friend told me his brother takes the calls and tries to waste as much time of theirs as possible. I did that successfully once, but 99% of the time, they hang up on me before the third sentence is spoken. Am I on some sort of “don’t waste your time on him list” that takes 8 seconds to pop up on screen? If so, I wish they would just program my number off of the list altogether.
I was thinking the same, they spend their lives using deception and taking advantage of people's naivete in order to steal their hard and honestly earned money and gain a profit that they did not work to earn, how is wasting their time or annoying them at all immoral? This strategy is the least harmful revenge to have ever existed!

Seems it was obviously a scam I decided to ask him to send me a picture of him and ask for a name and such, which he obviously "wasnt able to provide".
