I have a Scammer Hooked, What Should I Send Them? Login/Join 
Member

I received a spoofed email on my work email and since I'm sitting here working on documents anyway I figured I'd have a little fun.

They want me to purchase and send them pictures of the back of 9 $100 Amazon gift cards. So far I've replied 3x saying they are attached, and they've grown increasingly frustrated. Now I've just sent them 9 attachments of blank screens Big Grin

What next? A full moon pic?

Not even sure what they just asked for now.


Their reply was "Please send them in a pair of two each."

So I responded "I’m confused a pair of two each would be 4, but I have 9 cards so there will be one left over. Should I get 3 more so that I can send 3 pairs of 2 each?"

Tell them you're work with amazon and it would take too long to take pictures of 1000 gift cards. Then ask if you can just send the cards COD. Then ship a bunch of rocks that they have to pay for.

They spoofed a high up in the company's email address, though its not even in our domain so not very well.

He's supposedly in a meeting and needs these gift cards ASAP.

Again, not really believable, but gives me a mental break every few minutes when they respond.

I'm trying to find a good rick roll link to send them at the end.

Anyone know where that one is that every time you close it, it opens another?

LOL, I'm trying to keep it somewhat PG as it is my work account, but I'll keep that as a last resort.

You need some pics of some used Amazon gift card. Let the suckers enter them just to find out they are used. They will likely re-enter them thinking they entered the wrong number.

You should have him send you copies of Amazon gift cards so that you can see how he wants you to do it.

I just sent them some pics of gift cards from online where the code was partially peeled off. They didn't have any concerns about it. I don't think they're even looking at the images, just taking them and filing them away or something.

Send the front in pairs. That will get them even more. I'm sure Google images will have a pic or 2.

Ask them if you can send them $10,000 in Bitcoin instead because it's easier and have them send you back the change.

You know what the best part of this is? For every minute they waste on you, they're not bending some schmuck over.

You're obviously having technical problems that you can't solve. Send them a request for $1,307.69 in Bitcoin so you can get the equipment you need to help them.
