Guy Beats The Scammer At Their Own Game

ADVERTISEMENT

With Graham Bells’ invention of the telephone in 1876, a new era of frauds began. And since swindlers have always been known for their smarts, phone scams soon began. Over time, these cheats grew to be the multi-million online scams that are active somewhere in Nigeria to this day.

It is not so easy to get scammed online as e-mails usually announce themselves as such, thanks to technology, but what happens when you get a text from an anonymous number? Well, when Imgur user Anthony Schillings received one such phone scammer text there was only one clear answer – play along.

Sent from an unknown number, Schillings received some interesting scamming ‘information’ from an “employee” at the “Exxon Mobile Corporation.” While some might have disregarded the message in fear of being scammed, it was this fraudster’s lucky day. Scroll down below to see how this man found a hilarious way to scamming a scammer and beating him at his own game.

I saw a youtube video in which a scammer contacted a little old lady trying to get her to unlock her computer so he could take it over and strip it of personal info. Only the little old lady (actually a young man) turned out to be an expert hacker that actually gained access to the scammers computer and downloaded all the files before sending a worm to destroy their files and their servers. The last thing you hear on the video is the scammer getting slapped around by his boss.

My mom has gotten several calls about something wrong with her computer. She follows all those their instructions only to tell them several minutes in that she doesn't own a computer. She's 86 yrs, doesn't own a computer and loves to p**s these a******s off!

I used to love the phone calls from the "IRS" or the "MS Windows Techs," back when they weren't robocalls, and I had time on my hands. My favorite was a guy (very heavy Eastern Indian accent) who called me while I was stuck in traffic, I usually don't answer unknown calls, but there was an accident and I wasn't going anywhere for a bit. (This is a shorter version of the event but you will get the gist.) Scammer: "we got your message that you are having issues with your windows." To which I replied "really? My windows seem to be fine. In fact I just had them replaced!" Scammer: NO. Your computer windows. Me: But my computer doesn't sit near a window. S: The windows on your computer! Me: What about the window, and I said, my computer doesn't sit anywhere near a window! S: No. No. No! The windows program! Me: My windows have programs? S: NO! The computer program for your PC! Me: Oh, I have a Mac. Little **** hung up on me. How rude. ;)

Had some fun wasting the time of a so called Microsoft employee a while back. She wanted me to install some kind of malware of course. Let her talk me trough every step, acting like a confused computer newb all the time until I asked her if she could no get on my PC to see if I installed it correctly and she said yes. That was the moment I revealed to het that I was nowhere near a computer at the time, that I was enjoying my time in the park, thanks, told her she was a criminal moron and told her to stick her scam up any uncomfortable orifice of her choice and hung up.

I love f*****g with online scammers who send you checks to cash, then you're supposed to wire them money. I like them to send me checks with fake names. I have ones made out to Tess Tickles, Robyn Banks, Jed I. Knight, Ima Moreon, and many more! I love wasting their time, and I have something funny to show friends.

We have a scam up in Canada where the Revenue agency calls to say you have warrants for your arrest. According to them, I have three outstanding warrants for not calling and sending the CRA money. I am waiting for the RCMP to come arrest me for being delinquent on my taxes. It's a scam from India. I've told them, you know where I live, come get me.

I had a scammer texting me on FB about going to a website, logging in with my FB or email account and vote something for him. Apparently, if you end up entering anything, you can kiss ur accounts goodbye. So as a programmer with a good heart, I downloaded and fixed a few codes up to make a little program that sends him millions of made up email accounts and passwords every time I run it. I did have lots of fun running the program every time I have some spare times. Last time I heard, the website he used to phish those info is now gone.

My names is liana sofiani Iโ€™m a citizen of United Kingdom, My younger sister was diagnosed of breast cancer one year's ago, and her name is Liana Emily I and my family have took her to all kind of hospital in UK still yet no good result. I decided to go to the internet and search for cancer cure so that was how I find a lady called Peter Lizzy she was testifies to the world about the goodness of a herbal man who has the root and herbs to cure all kind of disease and the herbalist website & whatsapp phone number was attachedย  (https://droziegbeherbalhome.wordpress.com/) So I decided to contact the herbalist for my younger sister help, to cure her breast cancer. I contacted him and told him my problem he said to me, I should not worry that my sister cancer will be cured, he told me that there is a medicine he is going to give me and cook for her for 14 days. I thought it was a mere fact but I decided to play along too. I got the herbs from him through FedEx and I follow his instructions.

Weโ€™ve had scam phone calls, you know the ones where thereโ€™s a problem with your computer. Problem is weโ€™re staying with my 93 yr old father who doesnโ€™t have a computer. In one week we got 8 of these calls!! Each one had no idea that there is no computer here. Phone numbers are sold to many different places so when you prove itโ€™s a scam the next scammer doesnโ€™t know this. One guy even gave me the staff number of a real guy in Sydney who works around the corner from where my husband works. They are using real names and Iโ€™d numbers.

Ever since I moved recently I've been getting robocalls on an average of once daily: "Hello dear National Grid customer!" The caller has no accent, but the syntax just sounds so wrong, I don't know how they signed off on it. Interestingly enough, they're offering me a special 'discount,' not the usual threat.

My names is liana sofiani Iโ€™m a citizen of United Kingdom, My younger sister was diagnosed of breast cancer one year's ago, and her name is Liana Emily I and my family have took her to all kind of hospital in UK still yet no good result. I decided to go to the internet and search for cancer cure so that was how I find a lady called Peter Lizzy she was testifies to the world about the goodness of a herbal man who has the root and herbs to cure all kind of disease and the herbalist website & whatsapp phone number was attachedย  (https://droziegbeherbalhome.wordpress.com/) So I decided to contact the herbalist for my younger sister help, to cure her breast cancer. I contacted him and told him my problem he said to me, I should not worry that my sister cancer will be cured, he told me that there is a medicine he is going to give me and cook for her for 14 days. I thought it was a mere fact but I decided to play along too. I got the herbs from him through FedEx and I follow his instructions.

Weโ€™ve had scam phone calls, you know the ones where thereโ€™s a problem with your computer. Problem is weโ€™re staying with my 93 yr old father who doesnโ€™t have a computer. In one week we got 8 of these calls!! Each one had no idea that there is no computer here. Phone numbers are sold to many different places so when you prove itโ€™s a scam the next scammer doesnโ€™t know this. One guy even gave me the staff number of a real guy in Sydney who works around the corner from where my husband works. They are using real names and Iโ€™d numbers.

I can even hear the very characteristic voice of James Veitch as I read through this. Check him out on youtube!

Ever since I moved recently I've been getting robocalls on an average of once daily: "Hello dear National Grid customer!" The caller has no accent, but the syntax just sounds so wrong, I don't know how they signed off on it. Interestingly enough, they're offering me a special 'discount,' not the usual threat.
