Me: If I send you these bar codes can I get that raise we’ve been discussing?
Scammer: Yes

I like the butthole responses, but would like to keep it somewhat clean. Since my boss knows what’s going on I’d like to eventually share the results with him.

The key is to not just ask yes/no questions. Use who, what, when, where or how to get better responses.

Me: Are the cards door prizes? Are they door prizes from both of us? DO I need door prizes? I can have my assistant grab some muffins from Denny’s Bakery, do we need muffins? Do we need sandwiches? Will the presentation push to lunch? Are we going to lunch after this? I'm going to have my assistant pickup some sandwiches, or should we do a sit down with drinks after the presentation?!

Humm, they are open to bribery so push a bit harder. Ask for a number and if they lowball hint you have pics of him banging his secretary you would be happy to send to his wife.

Ask what denomination he recommends. Maybe Hindu?

Do scammers really think people talk like this?


They aren't interested in being completely accurate. This helps weed out the smarter people who would catch on before money is moved.

Make sure you put in note pad so you can quickly fire off each question as a separate text w/ copy/paste

I used to work with a guy who fell for this scam and bought 1k worth of gift cards.

I'm assuming this guy is old, but damn, how can you be that dumb.

See if anyone has codes off fully used cards and send them those.

Tell the scammers "I left the gift cards on your desk. Have a good weekend."

To Scammer: I am stuck in traffic at the moment. Can I just send you the company bitcoin wallet information instead? You can probably order them online faster than I can get to the store. Traffic is not moving right now on Hwy 190.

Also, I know a group of people he can hire to kill his staff he is in the meeting with. I should go back through my history and get his number. lol Boy was he mad when I sent him a fake Bitcoin Wallet.
