Scammers and messing with them.

[Tehkast]

Think we all agree fuck scammers and they are fair game for abuse and to be trolled.

 

I'm using Facebook marketplace first time in few years shocked how many scam requests I'm getting. I don't think they are bots based on reply times and some of my replies are weird on purpose, they clearly have their copy paste script to stick to where viable.

 

I hate these people with a passion and want to cause them just some of the pain they cause to so many (Mainly older people or those less able to see the scam) 

 

How do you get even / annoy them?

 

Wasting their time seems a good start if they're playing with you hopefully someone else got through the net who may not of before.

Making people aware with videos or posts soon as you can spreading the message.

Is there anything (Within legal limits) that can be done if you happen to get the scammers details beyond reporting them to Fraud Alert sites?

Plan on automating as much as I can to reply and spam but any emails they provide but with how easy it is to just move on seems like possibly pointless, but bank info seems in my opinion harder to change can you do anything if they provide the sort code and account code they expect you to pay to?

You could try reporting it yourself and telling them you meant to post it there?  The mods might move it for you

There's not much you can do within legal limit. That's not what laws are for.

Maybe try getting in touch with Pierogi or one of his crew at "Scammer Payback". They are doing some cool things recently with scammers. They may be able to at least guide you in the right direction.
