If this interests you, I highly recommend checking out the scambaiter Kitboga. He streams live on Twitch around noon on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and gets those scammers doing insane stuff. He has a bunch of edited streams on YouTube too: https://youtu.be/LhspnzeDzFw
Oh man, I fuckin love that guy. Always a good time watching his stuff.
Oooh, that reminds me my daughter calling me around midnight:
- Her: “I need your help!”
- Me: “Who are you?”
- Her: “Your daughter, [blurred speech]!”
- Me: “Francesca?” (fran-CHES-ka)
- Her: “Yeah! Dad, I need some money, it’s urgent, I tell you then!”
- Me: “if you’re my daughter, where’s the passcode?”
- Her: “Dad I’m Francisca (fran-SEES-ka) believe me!”
Then I burst out in laughters. “Francesca” is just some girl name that popped up in my mind, but the scammer couldn’t pronounce her own name properly! (I don’t have children.)
(775) 227-3232
The guy threatened to dismember me and my family when I called him out lol. Have with them.
Are you sure the number isn’t spoofed and some poor bastard is getting harassed now? At least for me any scam call always has the same first 6 digits as my number with a random last 4 digits.
It’s for sure an office full of scammers. I’ve called it an obscene amount of times today lol.
Just to clarify, they answer the phone as “Amazon customer service” and they always end up slinging obscenities at me and insulting my mother etc. Not all of them threaten me with bodily harm but it doesn’t sound like standard training for Amazon employees to me.
Ahh, well then, carry on good-person. You’re the hero we need, not the hero we deserve.
Small update, I believe I have pissed off everyone in their office. When they answer I hear things like “ugh” and “this fuck” before they hang up on me hahaha
Got a call from “Amazon UK”. I’m in Belgium, but i do have a UK account.
I requested him to verify by looking up my last order. He said “but I’m from Amazon UK sir”. Yeah, so?
Apparently my last order was “a big dildo for my mother and fuck you asshole” 🤣
If you find a legitimate scammer callback number you should:
-
Find a fax machine (virtual fax service works too).
-
Send a fax to scammers phone number. Doesn’t matter what it is. They won’t receive it anyways.
-
Set retry attempts to 100.
-
Enjoy, knowing that you’ve successfully annoyed and wasted a few minutes of some scumbags time which means they have less opportunities to scam someone else.
-
i gotta get a voice changer or something. as soon as I say “hello?” they just hang up.
Careful with that, my friend got a long distance bill from the caymans for calling back and arguing with them for over an hour.
“oh, hi, uuuuh, how do you sleep at night?”
