guy1980 1012 Report post Posted December 30, 2020 Ya I know. I have messaged a few providers and got attempted for the gift card scam and most are pretty obvious that there running a scam as you keep getting the copy and pasted messages over and over. Was bored one night and just sat on my couch messing with a scammer on a burner number about the gift cards pretending to be at the store trying to buy them and not able to figure it out lol. Person actually started trying to help and walked me through step by step how to buy the cards and even how to scratch them with a penny to reveal the code and got mad when I pretended to be scratching the wrong side then told them I didn’t have a penny and got flustered trying to walk me through finding something else to scratch it with. Long story short they were furious when I let them in I was waiting their time but the time they were talking to me might have prevented someone else from being scammed lol. Let’s hear your stories about your scams or funny stories or post if you have any good Belleville recommendations. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted December 30, 2020 No matter the payment method, the first step should be to establish the legitimacy of a provider. As for trolling scammers, I would never recommend. Even on burner phones, it only takes one slip up to get a knock at the door. Better ignore and avoid possible escalation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
