OK Who Is in Charge Here? (Scambaiting) - Also FAQ: Why Do Scammers Offer Choices?

The lack of professionalism in this scam is staggering. It’s almost as if it’s all being run by a small boy.

Some of the older videos, like the ones about John Barosa/Warosa are comedy GOLD and some of the funniest videos I've ever seen.

[@PandemoniumMeltDown]

Scams: an infamous enduring human catastrophe with massive repercussions upon the victims and very little consequences upon the perpetrators. Scambaiting, all mighty and vacciney as it may be, still has to be refreshed constantly to maintain our protection up to date and vigilence constant. And, of course, enjoy the art some scambaiters create with all this raw, barely exploited, 100% fair game, bio and certified potential!

Sometimes when I'm texting my online friends and I tell them something kind of personal i hear his voice in the back of my mind "the sort of information you should never share with a stranger on the internet."

[@macm3081]

But if they are an online friend they are not a stranger so you shouldnt be worried about telling them anything you want to. Of course there is the difference of what kind of "friend" they are. An acquaintance is merely someone you know and you probably would not want to share any intimate information with. A friend, depending on your comfort level with that particular person is also a factor.

[@interntgirl]

[@snakewithapen5489]

I've got an online friend who I've been talking to consistently for 4 years and we both share lots of personal details about life, achievements and things we're struggling with.

The one scammer questioning your line about the birds controlling the phones caused the loudest "Ha!" I think I've ever involuntarily exclaimed

[@silkworm025]

11:10 I just want to add that there's also the potential for blackmail. If they've got all your personal details and now an email chain of you knowingly trying to purchase stolen funds like this then extortion is probably the easiest way for a scammer to rack up more funds. Plus... you've already demonstrated your vulnerability in this regard. Thanks for all you do, Mr Shrimp.

[@ForbiddenChocolate]

I think they just sell any data they manage to collect to other scammers. I've noticed that robocalls and spam seem to come in waves, possibly as data lists are sold from scammer to scammer. Though the ones prone to losing their temper might use your personal details to make threats. They really are a horrible lot.

So I have to admit - sometimes I put on one of your scambaiting videos to fall asleep to. And I also have to admit - the amount of times the outro has woken me up is unreal 😆 Now, I know it's probably not a popular problem, but I thought I'd share to see if anyone else has a similar experience 😅

Same here! I would definitely appreciate the outro music being made a bit quieter, to match the volume of his voice. I wonder if there's a Chrome extension out there that would fade out the volume on KZbin videos...

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

I watch dedicated videos meant to fall asleep to, or his nature/foraging videos. Videos of people packing things for their small businesses is an awesome genre to fall asleep to, or people scrapbooking. I even have a playlist of a guy who does these tabletop zen gardens that are really relaxing. But I wouldn't turn to a scambaiting video to fall asleep to 😅

[@deliriouscheeto]

@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley well his voice is relaxing and I enjoy repetition. I know some of the scambaiting videos well enough to remember how the story goes. So it's predictable and relaxing

[@ForbiddenChocolate]

I often have trouble sleeping due to chronic pain, which is very frustrating, which leads to greater trouble getting to sleep. 🤦‍♀️ Putting on the A.S. scam baiting playlist helps assuage the frustration with his soothing voice and clever humor. The outros are far less likely to wake me up than the ads between the videos.

Good to see the great return of a Scambaiting Atomic Shrimp! Mr. Shrimp, I've got a question/suggestion (not sure if such idea was previously already done by yourself), could you try making a fake scam e-mail to join in the converstation with the real scammer to make him believe that the victim has already paid to the fake scammer and to propose the idea of joint scam collaboration? Cheers and thank you for your efforts! :)

[@AtomicShrimp]

[@memyselfi4325]

I love your content in general, you are so creative with the budget challenges and the food, but your scambaiting content is something else. Your sense of humor is top notch 😂 Thank you for awesome content! 👍

[@basedokadaizo]

one thing i've always wanted to do if i were to start scambaiting (if i were smart enough about email, i would've started already) is to take a detail they list about what they're looking for in their "partner" and say i can't fit their needs. "are you a business man or woman?" "i apologize, i'm neither, i think you'll need to look elsewhere". my only worry is it'd cut the conversation short too fast, but there's potential for a rich vein of confusion that might get jumped on.

[@kirtil5177]

it might work if you say you can only tangentally fit their needs and keep derailing the scam to mention that and other stuff that is ultimately irrelevant. something like "are you a reliable business parter i can trust?" "i have committed fraud multiple times, is that alright? what type of fraud is still alright with you?"

[@jonathanrichards593]

I think the chances of a scammer dropping a "bite" from a target without at least *trying* to reel it in are quite small. The vast majority of targets just delete their messages without any response, of course, and the more people that watch AS scambaiting, the bigger the majority that will be.

This illusion of choice is also a very good way to make a child work with you. If they are throwing a fit over going to sleep you can just ask them "would you like to go to sleep in 2 minutes or 5 minutes?" And they likely will just choose and get to sleep. You might be surprised how easily and often this works.

[@SGresponse]

@@ArtSMRdianne - If my 2yo throws a fit and says that they won't relieve themselves I leave them with a choice of "toilet or potty, no other choices" and they will inevitably pause their fit and make a choice (95% toilet) and actually get on with it, leaving me less worried about the state of their clothing for the foreseeable future. So I see it as a way of engaging them in the task they are initially reluctant to do... I legitimately didn't know it was a Manipulation Tactic. But then again, not going to stop because someone on the internet sees me as a horrible parent because of it. I'm gonna be the horrible parent with the unsoiled-trousered child.

[@fieryvale]
