Mine is joining sovereign citizen Facebook groups and giving them bogus advice. It's hilarious what I can convince them of (just harmless stuff like using certain stamps and ink colours and nonsense like that).

You mean like this sort of thing? I'm appalled at how easy it is for me to believe they'd go for something like this. ๐Ÿ˜

"Bring in your documentation unsigned and tell them you used invisible ink. They have to accept it."

Yes! I will reply very seriously to one of their stupid questions something like that they need to submit the T.298.101 form to their local notarizing deputy attorney using a fox postal stamp in red ink, with a codicil appending the 1099A, and they are like "oh ok", and then my messenger request is full of questions from sovcits haha.

The poor person working behind whatever desk they bring it too. Not completely harmless, if it's mailed, absolutely, but if they have to interact with a human, I feel bad for that human.

That's a great point!

There are frustrating customers that will ruin your day, but the full blown crazies are usually worth a laugh and the story.

Think you mentioned that yesterday, made me ponder.

Perhaps someone knows why, while itโ€™s obviously quite funny, itโ€ฆ doesnโ€™t quiteee sit exactly right with meโ€ฆ

Maybe itโ€™s like when a comedian punches down. Or maybe Iโ€™m assuming a number of them have legitimate mental deficiencies (schizophrenia? learning disabilities?).

Hey I bet youโ€™d be really good at wasting scammersโ€™ time. Like Kitboga! Would love to see you running the Lemmy version of 419eater :)

Every minute the scammer I'm communicating with is spending on me is a minute he is not scamming a real potential victim.

FWIW I scam white supremacists on a daily basis. They all think I'm their friend and I'm really the person getting their social media accounts blown up. :)

How can I participate as an audience member? ๐Ÿฟ You on YouTube?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, I just have a Facebook alt I scam them with. You can message me privately and we can talk about adding you so you can observe.

Appreciate the offer but the less time I spend on Facebook the happier I am. Thank you!

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hey I can definitely put my efforts towards that.

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

As opposed to the legitimate legal advice usually seen in sovcit facebook groups :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

It's really about on par.

My wife & I are thinking it's a conspiracy to make sure the dumbest criminals stay incarcerated.

The fox stamp is the idea my friend and I have sold them on.
