Welcome to the
world of Scambaiting!
Does somebody want to transfer millions
of dollars into your account?
Does someone want you pay you to cash cheques and send them
the money?
Met a new friend/penpal on a friendship/dating site who's
asking you for money?
Has a dying person contacted you wanting your help to give
his money to charity?
Have you sold an item and are asked to accept a payment
larger than the item amount?
IT'S
A SCAM!
Don't fall for common scams like
this - fight them!
So what is scambaiting?
Well, put simply, you enter into a dialogue with scammers,
simply to waste their time and resources. Whilst you are
doing this, you will be helping to keep the scammers away
from real potential victims and screwing around with the
minds of deserving thieves.
It doesn't matter if you
are new to this sport or a hardened veteran; if you are wasting
the time of a scammer, or frustrating them in any way well
that's good enough for us, and we would welcome you to join
with our now very large community.
