Keep to the Code (Scambaiting) Also FAQ: How Will AI Impact Scams and Scambaiting?

[@AtomicShrimp]

*Afterthoughts & Addenda* *3 Point Emphasis* - 12:03 - ChatGPT loves to use lists of 3 items, groupings of 3 adjectives, sentences with 3 related clauses, groups of 3 paragraphs and so on, to make its point. If you look at the text example on screen there, you'll find examples of 3 different types of hat listed, or three advantages from using the device, etc.

[@saschamayer4050]

Well, I also like to use examples in threes. Should I be worried? 🙂

[@davidmurphy563]

11:45 you said something that sounded like "chiveless"; not a word I know. I tried googling but didn't find it. In the context it seemed to mean identifying characteristic. How is it spelt?

@@AtomicShrimp I've just googled the etymology. Apparently it comes from the Hebrew for "ear of corn"; chosen, entertainingly enough, not for the meaning but because it was hard for foreigners to say! What an awesome word.

The "we can't communicate on sundays" excuse sounds like it could be fun to use on scammers when they give deadlines. Sundays, holidays, there's always a reason to push a response further into the future.

[@JimBrowning]

I whole heartedly agree with the AI (or lack of) comments. So far, I've not seen any AI in use for the classic telephone-based scams. There's no need. It's a pure numbers game and I'm not entirely sure it's worth the investment for the scammers. A typical scam call center will spend almost nothing on the hardware needed to make phone calls. That pretty much amounts to the cheapest PC and headset available. Expenditure is the fixed costs of paying agents, buying data and calls and bonuses. Why fix something that isn't broken? Scamming AI is some way off (thankfully).

[@neonshadow5005]

The man himself in the house. Nice to see that you watch Atomic Shrimp!

[@AtomicShrimp]

Thanks Jim (great to see you here!) There's also that hypothesis where the most successful scammers are the worst written, because the only victims they trap are the ones who sail through the whole scam oblivious to the absurdity of it. If scammers use AI to make their scams more believable, they will waste more time and effort running half the scam with victims who wake up halfway and say 'waitaminute'

@@AtomicShrimp Although one would think that they could use AI to make it more believable, but I suppose a dumb script would filter out people... AI is more useful for scambaiters though.

A new video from A.S. nice. It seems like a lot of the cold calls use an AI to me. Medicare, Final Expense, home warranty and others have an AI opener. The phone rings you answer.

It's a scary world out there, I recently called my mom to work out our own "secret code" because of it, in case one of us is in real trouble. Luckily she's tech-savvy enough to know about this scam

[@ForbiddenChocolate]

My dad got a call back when scammers would pretend to be someone's grandchild to get them to wire money to them for some kind of emergency. My dad was always sharp as a tack, so he didn't fall for it. Besides, my kids always greeted him with a very enthusiastic, "Hi Bepa!" whenever he answered the phone, so he was suspicious right off the bat. Elderly people, especially those with reduced mental capacities, could easily fall for this sort of thing. My mother had dementia and, like many others who suffer from that awful condition, became dangerously generous with her money. If she believed one of my kids needed her financial help, she wouldn't have hesitated to whip out her checkbook or debit card! (We did take those things away eventually, but it was very difficult on all of us.) Sorry to prattle on, but I find this extremely disturbing and infuriating.

If one of the main goals is to distract potential scammers and keep them busy or annoyed by wild goose chases in the hopes that they will give up or have their accounts banned, and if many scammers aren't fluent English speakers, perhaps an AI could string them along in a convincing enough manner to at least distract them a little or gather enough proof for a report?

My grandparents got called by a scammer, who was impersonating my little brother. He said he was in jail, and needed bail. If my grandma didnt know that he wasn't the kind of person to be in jail, I wouldnt be surprised if she had been scammed by him. Its a terrifying world of scammers we live in.
