The good thing about getting scammed is that once you have you'll never make the same mistake twice. And who knows, maybe you might take it upon yourself to troll a scammer. Enjoy :)

      I have done just that! It is amazing! I had a call about a debt collector that seemed odd, they threatened me about going to prison over an unpaid debt, which turned out to be 29 dollars(sprint bill from 2015). My mind went into overdrive and hung up after they told me the name of the agency they work for(bad move) - they are called ERC - I did say I was going to call back and asked for their supervisor so I can arrange a callback. The scammer got rude and started to curse at me over the phone. Me, being a former call center supervisor myself for lifeline cell phones (government phones for welfare people in America - mostly used really for illegal activities) and knew this was bogus. So I proceeded to call back the listed number(toll free and based in florida), when the same person answered, I immediately asked for a supervisor and they hung up. So I continued. When I got a different person, I asked for the original person who called and if they didn't answer or transfer me to a supervisor, I would report them to the EEOC and BBB for fraud. They proceeded to berate me with insults and loads of profanity then hung up on me. Game's on! Of course, I repeated this 15 times in 10 minutes, on time 16 - I was BLOCKED. By them! From a toll free number as well!
      I rode that high all day!
      Look them up here on RUclips - the video titles usually involve "scam", "lawsuit against ERC", and to top things off - they didn't even acquire the debt!

      @@TweetieBird-hl9hg I gave him one excuse after another once he started asking for money. Ya know....my car broke down on the way to get "cards" and it took every dime I had to get towed.....
      Someone put a bomb in my mailbox (I blamed the scammer 😂) so now the FBI had me under investigation and that lead to my bank account being frozen and the bank only allowed me enough money to get a few groceries.....and the FBI moved in with me to keep a close eye on me and to hopefully catch the bomber 🙄😬
      After I got my accounts unfrozen several weeks later....he immediately came up with the cock and bull story about him having a chest full of precious jewels he wanted to ship to me for $8k (lmao).... I told him my lawyer checked out his shipping company and told him my lawyer said it didn't exist which pissed off the scammer 😂😂😂😂😂
      After 3 months I was totally bored 🥱 and faked my death ☠️😇 which caused him to call me relentlessly....so I finally picked up and told his scammy ass to go to helll and blocked him. The end 😌
      I don't really recommend toying with them as they become relentless. I still get bait from him and his homies, but I just delete them without opening their emails.
      Remember...we were on lockdown and had too much time on my hands.
      It's pretty time consuming. I am an improver which was helpful in making things up (check out improv comedy...or the TV show, "Who's Line is it Anyways). That will give you an idea of how I came up with ideas to lead him/them on.

      After the you know....his trying to groom me (snickering to his BS).....ya know....."my queen.....baby" 🤢🤮
      I decided I needed to play MY cards....
      So I messaged him in a very upsetting tone and angry language, I told him I had a bomb put in my mailbox and I was being investigated and that my bank accounts were seized. I had a bodyguard living with me and monitoring everything.
      I had no access to my accounts for a month and was given $50 a week for food 🤭
      He continued to contact me and he kept counting the days til I would be free to have access to my accounts....but mishaps kept happening (feels good to give 'em a taste of "I don't have access to my money" BS).
      The month came and went and finally the "investigation" was ended and scam dude starts with this BS story about be rewarded by a little old lady he saved and she left him a treasure chest of gold 😳 and he would ship it to me 🤑😂😂😂😂
      Well wouldn't ya know it, but on the way to get the money to pay for the shipment ($5K)....I got in a bad car accident and was killed (who knew I had such bad luck? 🤬🤪😅)......so now I'm dead 😵 (boo hoooo)......he kept trying to message me saying he doesn't believe me 🤥
      I pretended at this point to be my employee who stumbled upon allll the few months worth of texts and how I was killed on the way to the bank to get money for a scam 😡 (this frosted my employee cuz now he's outta a job). The scammer now is feverishly trying to FaceTime me 😂😂😂 but my employee (really me) is typing nasty messages about how the scammer is responsible for my death 😫
      Now approaching the 3rd month, I really started getting bored with this scammer 💩🤡🥱.....so I decided to come clean.
      I told him I was pregnant with his child (an immaculate conception....these things happen 🤷‍♀️🤰). Ok....I'm exaggerating here....no pregnancy.
      However, the being bored is true.
      So I pulled the trigger and told him I wasn't really dead....at least not as dead as the fake relationship ⚰️🪦
      I told him he was a feckin scammer not worth any more of my time....THE END 😋

He just kept pulling the scammers leg, telling him that he was in fact a good, catholic daughter and that he would pay the stated sum of money for atonement. It all got published on facebook afterwards, and the actual pastor got help with legalities surrounding the scammer

    When scammers phone me about the “Accident” their records show I was involved in, I do like to spin them on a tad. Firstly by remarking “Well you’re quick it only happened yesterday!”. They usually make some self gratifying remark about how efficient they are, and that I could qualify for a massive amount of compensation.
    I then regale them with my story of woe about the “Accident” it usually takes the following form:
    “I was just minding own business taking a jant down the Stennack, cos I had an appointment to see the doctor you see. As I’ve not been very well” all this in my broadest Cornish Accent, just to make it a touch more difficult for them to understand, including Cornish words like Jant (walk) bhrer (hard to translate into English proper but used to emphasis something being bigger or harder etc) at this point they are very attentive indeed. Thinking they’ve got a live one! Oh how wrong they are. 😂
    The fable continues with plenty of flowery background, like “Well I was just about to pass County Carpets, do you know where that is my robin?” Pause.....”Well ‘tis opposite where Peter built they new houses, lovely job he made of un. Well Jeremy you see he came out of County Carpets, and we was talking fur a few minutes about the bhrer nice bitta weather weem been having. How’s the weather up with you my handsome?” They will quickly say something about the weather and about the “accident” so I carry on my inane ramblings “well I wuz damn near kilt I tell you! I stepped out to cross the road and a bloody geet double decker bus wuz there! Scared the life out of me! I tripped over the curb, I tell ee what I thought I wuz a goner!” They will ask what injuries I suffered at this point “none!” I reply “I tripped but didn’t fall over the Accident happened down the Stennack a bit more, well I was shaken. That’s probably what caused the accident in the end you see” I will ask them some stupid questions like if they know my Doctor, they another ramble “he’s a very nice man, his father was at Dunkirk you know, used to sell Ice Cream in the 70’s” by now you can hear the frustration in their voice, so time to reveal the accident “then it happened didn’t it, I thought it was a fart, and I shit myself, I was in a bhrer old mess” they cannot hang up quick enough. Funnily enough I don’t get many calls for Ambulance chasing insurance scrotes much now.
    Hope you enjoyed, and every word is true, they fall for it every time. 😂

My grandmother in her old age got a little crazy(senile) and was scammed many times by FaceBook accounts of men claiming they would take her away to live happily ever after in her old age, but they needed her to send them money for tickets to get into the states so they can access their bank accounts. My grandmother died in a single car accident determined that she was going to send this last guy money and go pick him up at DFW airport and run away together. He called her phone later that day and i answered when i told him that she was dead he called me a liar and demanded I send him a picture of the body. Talk about making a horrible day even worse.

    The ones we usually get over here is when they phone you and say: "Hello, Mr _____, I'm calling about the recent road traffic accident you were in..." it's like some sort of accident/injury compensation scam... usually I say something like: "Do you mean that really bad one on the A92 a few weeks ago, the one that nobody survived?" and then "'CLICK...."

      These sound like our normal UK scam calls, I either keep them on the line for as long as possible or use the "This is my private number, that I don't give out anywhere, how did you get it?" they sometimes try to give excuses but more hang up. lol.

I have proved all the little info about this scammer is wrong...it's all lies but she won't believe me and has already given him 2000.00 euros. Could you do a catfish one ? Perhaps my last effort to get her to believe he is not real & only wants her money. Thanks 👍👍

    I once got an email from the CEO on my work email and thought it was legit for a hot minute and I'm pretty good at recognizing scams. I was pretty new with the company I work for, so I really thought it was them... until they asked for some type of visa cards 🤣🤣. I definitely fucked with them for a few minutes.

    I toyed with a scammer for about three months. I knew from the get-go that she wanted iTunes cards. She figured since I was single, I must be desperate. "She" really pushed the long-distance relationship thing. But, I have a rule about dating people sight-unseen. For all I knew, "she" could be a "he" living in his/her mom's basement and covered with hairy moles.
    The moment I told her that I was on a budget and didn't have the money to help her "fix her phone," she stopped messaging me. It's sad how many people will actually fall for this kind of stunt.
    Still, it was nice having someone to talk to for those three months...

    I messed with one around 15 yrs ago when that scam started...one day, I got my long awaited email...but, they needed $300...then they finally said to send them my info and they would put it in my bank
    I sent them the real bank numbers, cause, my husband used up the $400 overdraft privilege...lol...my mom was tripping...
    She was like, "what if they get into your account? Or get credit on your identity?"
    I told her that all they would be doing is helping me out...I'm in the red at the bank, which got rid of any chance for decent credit"...🤣 The worst they could have done was pay my debt at the bank or improve my credit...or both
