I mean....... They set a profile up here with a pic, but when you ask to Skype, they say I don't do Skype, but Yahoo chat is good. I should update my profile, get rid of the edits and make it known I know BS when I see it.

Hi Noa

They always say, it is easier to communicate on yahoo chat. I once fall for that trick, scammed me through yahoo, good thing I was broke..lol. I dont chat outside of M2 on initial contact neither video chat with total strangers.

Hello.

I have to chat video wise to get to know the person, get used to their mannerisms and everything. I've been bashed here recently........ If they only knew.

bashed ?? no way! do you mean the scammers are hitting you bad just lately ??

No, just a few people here. No worries ;)

Yahoo is more difficult and lengthy to report and take care of ToS violations. Its easier for them to get away with scamming there than on a site like this that is smaller and more controlled.

well we all have the scammer probs. I am being left alone lately - I have called them out and they disappear in a puff of smoke..

Yea, they run away pretty quick when they know you smell BS.

I don't know about you guys..... but if they request for off site chats and messages, I'm ok with it. The sooner they will spew their scam. And the minute it is out, I copy the message from there to a message here to the admin calling them for who they are, and puff....... they get 'erased' too!
But too busy lately to play cat & mouse. But right now, I just weeded one out....just waiting patiently!

Why waste your time? I love playing with them too though ;)

When I have the time to spare..... I play along! Two can play at the game, and a lot of us here do that. And then report them to the mods/admin. But sometimes it is like the plague....they just keep coming and coming and coming!!!!!

If you're good, you can get the scammers to send you money..

how much??

Yups........ how much did you get? Care to share some tips?

oh, an interesting thing to study !

You can really get thousands out of the scammers....if you don't mind paying the bounced check fees

What reverse Psychology is.
So far
What system does your computer use.
